Pal meet Yed...

Grrr called Bob and said "Pal I want you to meet a old friend from my acting days. Yed Yeti ...Yed meet Bob, my best human pal."
:Nice to meet you Yed, if you don't mind my asking, are you the Yeti..from the Abominable  Snowman movies?"
"It is good to be remembered Bob. No-one seems to recall my work anymore it is all zombie flicks today even in Bollywood..I am, alas,  a has been."  Yed said sadly.
"Sir, not here you are not. Grrr and I have all of your flicks,  in fact, if you have time it would be an honor to see them with you." said Bob.
"That is one heck of an idea ole ape, we can call Vlad and ask if we can use his movie house, may as well see them right." replied Grrr.

To be continued.

Not hungry thank you...

Before the yeti came over Gerrr was asked to speak at the local library.
They were doing "Dino-week" and well the little kids love Dinos and Grrr just cannot say "no " to them.
He gave a nice talk on the history of dinos and finished by giving the kids rides and giving his famous JP roar.

Funny thing.

He was only to speak for a hour of so but was asked to speak longer as Prof. Von Speck was nowhere to be found.

The Prof was to speak on his book."The T-Rex.   A small brained bird."'
They found his car in the parking lot but no sign of the prof.

Anyway when Grrr got home Gretta called, "Lunch will be ready in a few minutes dear, I am afraid that we will only be able to have one small bruno burger, the shop was out and Mr. Allosaurus, said that he would not have more till after 3."

"That is fine babe, in fact you can have my burger if you are hungry, I ....a..I had a bite out."

The Yeti came to visit.

One of Grrr's old pals from his movie days, the Yeti, came to visit.
Now it is not that abominable snowmen, don't like to see friends, it is just that Dinotown is just plain too hot most times. Now ..well, with the cold snap, it is just perfect weather for a visit from the Yeti.
Grrr had met the Yeti when they were both doing "B" movies in Hollywood.
"Yed", as Grrr calls him, he cannot pronounce the Tibetan  name,  loved moves as a young Yeti and like many beings before and after came to Hollywood to make his name.
Alas over time Yeti movies went out of fashion and about that time Bollywood started to make movies closer to Nepal. So Yed picked up the ole makeup case and returned home.
But Yed and Grrr remained fast friends and Grrr was pleased to see his old pal.
To be continued.

They do try!!!

 Seems that  those guys from the museum just keep trying to sneak into Dino town to capture Grrr.

Wonder if Grrr has a new hat????

Guess no one told the fish about global warming????

Guess no one told the fish about global warming????

Any thing you do with friends is cool

Grrr was out enjoying the day when he happened to see Grrr jr in the park.
Walking over to his son, Grrr said, "You did a fine job on the lawn son. Your mother was pleased."
"Glad to do it, pop. it was cool and the new tires are great."
"Cool? I would not call yard work cool", replied Grrr.
"Oh, it depends  how you do it. I called in the gang for help and used some of the money you and Mr. R gave me to get soda and pizza for us and well, any thing that you  do with friends is fun."  replied Jr with a happy smile.

As Jr ran back to his friends and Grrr walked off.

 Grrr smiled and thought "Anything you do with friends is fun"...not all the time son...but friends sure do help make life better."

NEW TIRES AND LEAVES

Grrr and Bob were looking out the window.

"Looks like the rain stopped old ape." said Grrr 

"Yep, you know what that means?"  asked Bob.

"yep, that honi-do list" replied Grrr.

Just then Grrr's boy, Grrr Jr came in and he did not look happy.

"What's up son. You and Rexy have a fight.?"

"No, nothing like that dad." replied Jr. "It's ok."

"Does not look 'OK" to me sir. What gives?" asked Bob.

"It is the bike..." Grrr jr started to say.

"if you wrecked it.." replied Grrr.

"Nothing like that Pop. it is the tires, they are just about shot. Mr. Bronto has none in stock that would fit a bike that old. The guy down at Triceratops tires does but I don't get paid till the first and ..I am Ok with the tires till then but I worry if Rexy is on the bike. I was thinking of going to the junk yard and see what he had."

"Son, putting junk tires on the bike just means that they wear out sooner. as I recall tires were $25 bucks a piece." said Grrr.

"Not any more dad. They are $ 50 a tire and that assumes that you have the tools to put them on. Otherwise it is $ 110 a tire.. I have $ 60 bucks ...and Mr. Bronto would let me have the tires till pay day but he would have to order them and that would take a month..."

Bob looked at Grrr. "Are you thinking what I am old reptile?"

"Sir, your mom and Aunt Stef want us to rake and mow and plant..." said Bob.

"I know you guys hate that stuff, but I kinda like doing it. I ..." said Jr.

"Hold on son. You need $40 bucks for tires." said Grrr "And a few bucks to take Rexy out." put in Bob

"So hows about this..you do this yard work for us and we kick in $ 40 bucks each. That takes care of the tires and some pocket money till pay day.?"

"Wow..You guys mean it????!!! OH WOW..WOW... thank you...thank you.!!!"

"But you know dad and Mr. R you don't have to I like doing it and..."

"Sir, we know. and put in Grrr,"I  know a rex who HAS the tools to change the tires and can show you how and give you  the tools  as he does not need them."  Jr was roaring and banging his tail on the ground in happiness, "who dad who?"  Jr asked ....."Me." said Grrr  " I will show you the box trick for changing tires on a bike." said Bob

Later that day when the girls got home, Gretta and Stef said 'You boys did a fine job on the lawn it looks very nice."

Bob and Grrr just grinned at each other as Jr rushed happily  to the phone to call Rexy.

Raining out : )

The ladies had gone out and Grrr and Bob were looking out the window on a very rainy day in Dinotown.
"I hate rain." said Bob. 
"yeah, me too. Remember when it used to rain at lunch and recess and we all had to stay in the class?" asked Grrr. 
"Yeah" replied Bob. "Hate the rain." "yeah, me too." said Grrr.
Going to the icebox for a root beer Grrr said: "Hum seems the girls left us a " to do list" ". "What did they want us to do?" asked Bob
"Well, they want us to mow the lawn and pick up leaves and plant stuff."
replied Grrr.
"Humm...Bob looked at Grrr and the guys both looked out the window at the very wet day. 'You know pal," mused Grrr " the rain is kinda nice."
"Very true ole reptile. " replied Bob as he raised his coffee cup. "I love the rain." : )

What do we get for Al Gator?

Al's birthday was coming up and the boys had no idea what to get him.
So being wise, they asked their wives.
"Well" said Flower. "Al talks some time about a dish called Babute that he has when he swims down to visit the family for Christmas in Belize, We could get the recipe and make it." "Wonderful, and you know it does get cold here of late, perhaps a nice sweater in green." said Stef.
"Yes, and you know how Al loves his Earl Gray tea, but he was saying that it just does not taste right from a metal pot. I saw this nice Price and Kinsengton English tea pot in the mall."
 "Thank you ladies..bowing Bob and Grrr both said "We are not worthy!!" 
Well, that Thursday, it was Al's birthday. ( Ok, if you want to be exact, Hatching Day, but it is the same thing.) "Right kind of you folks to have me over I..." Al's nose started to twitch, "I say chaps, that cannot be!!"
"Oh but it is." said a smiling Flower taking the plate cover off a steaming bowl of babute. 'For those nights when it gets a bit cold in the swamp," Stef said handing Al a thick hand-made green sweater... "Really, I don't know what to say"...replied Al. "Well, you can say that you will stop complaining about that tea you Limeys drink," said Bob and Grrr handing Al the British teapot and 25 lbs of Twining Earl Gray."
Happy birthday ya bum". 

"What do we get for Al Gator?"

Al Gator was a new friend of Grrr's. They had met when the gang retired to Fl. Al, as you may know. had been in the Construction business and helped the guys build "The Lair" deep in the swamp. Being a Gator, Al knew about swamps. Now Al's family were long in the South but had roots in Belize, British -African and were very very "Stiff upper lip. old boy." So when Grrr and Bob were trying to figure out what to get their pal. All Al would say was "The idea is taken for the deed . Ya'all are decent chaps." "We gotta get him SOMETHING." Bob said to Grrr. "I know pal but what?" replied Grrr
"Only one thing to do." said Grrr "Yep. they always know what to do about this sort of thing. We gotta ask Stef and Gretta."

The First Date part IV

"You know it does seem a bit, well Odd LG." said Roger.
"Turning from the picture that she was looking at, she replied.
"Well, a lot of the "New Art' is conceptional and the artist.."

"No, I mean Rex and Raptor being married and then having human friends." replied Roger.
"Oh." said LG with a smile. "Well, mom and daddy were actors before they became Class dinos and they are, as Aunt Flower likes to say, "free souls."
As to the Humans, Uncle Bob gave Grrr the chance to be a Class -Dino and the two just hit it off. They and mom and Aunt Stef have been together for just  ages."
"Still, this inter-species mingling a bit odd don't you think? I.."
"Roger, let me make this clear, I was raised to judge beings by their actions, not their species. Dad says that there are only two types of beings Good and Bad". said LG, her eyes beginning to turn red rather like her father's eyes just  before he goes Jurassic.
"That is rather Utopian my dear girl, but in the real world..." said Roger
"I am NOT your "dear girl" and won't be. Good Night and Good by Roger".
Walking off, leaving Roger with his mouth open in surprise, LG took out her Cell phone and called her brother. Grrr Jr. "Brother, I am at the Art Museum, can you give me a ride home?" "I am right down the block be there in two minutes sis." replied Grrr Jr. As the dino kids were riding home on Jr.'s bike, he asked "How did it go with Roger?" After LG told him, Jr replied. "Could have told ya sis, that guy has his nose so high in the air, he needs a space helmet. You gonna tell Dad?"
"No. Momma and Aunt Stef or Aunt Flower perhaps, but not daddy or uncle Bob." You know them." The two said together in a parent voice "Why I am going Jurassic on that maggot." The Dino kids were laughing together as they got home. : )

The First date ...part III

"I.." said Roger Rex. Just then the door opened and LG called happily.
"Roger! Mom, Aunt Stef, Aunt Flower, this is Roger, the boy I was telling you about. Roger, meet my Mom and Aunts, I see that you have already met daddy and uncle Bob." A relived Roger jumped to his feet and putting his tea cup aside said "Very pleased to meet you ladies. LG has spoken highly of you." Smiling, Gretta said "Is that Organic tea Roger?"
"Oh, yes Mrs. Rex. Grrr was kind enough to get me a cup when I explained that I ONLY eat organic." The ladies smiled and LG beamed with pride. Grrr and Bob gave each other the " revolted guy" look. LG looked at her watch and said" Roger, we have to run if we are to get to the Museum in time. Don't worry mama..daddy we wont be home late."
"Oh, I am sure of that." said Grrr with an evil T -Rex grin.
To be continued

The First Date part ll.

Young roger Rex was sitting very straight Grrr was giving him his "I wonder how you will taste with Root beer look ." "So Roger, you are going to school with Lg. What are you studying?" I am majoring in the study of the interaction of dinos and their environment. Our goal is to make the world greener." replied roger in a rather condescending tone.
"Hmmm, Have a root beer kid." said Grrr tossing over a can.
"Thank you but I only drink organic."
"Ok. I will see what we have.' Grrr said and went into the kitchen.
Roger turned to Bob and said " Grrr likes to play the heavy father, don't you think?"
Picking up his Mauser and working the bolt, Bob looked at Roger and replied. "You know sir, I have known LG since she was a hatchling. I would not like it, if she were un happy. A word to the wise sir".
Coming back into the room, Grrr saw a odd look on Rogar's face and Bob playing with his Mauser. "Humm" said Grrr with a toothy T-Rex grin. "I see you and LG's uncle Bob are getting acquainted." to be continued.

The First Date:

Little Gretta, Grrr's  girl was home from her first year in college.
She was telling her folks about this nice boy Roger Rex, that she had met. in fact, he was coming over to take her to the museum that afternoon.
Grrr was not too happy about this. As he told his friend Bob. "I don't know this kid, anyway  she is just out of the nest. I...." Just then the front bell rang and  Grrr roared "Come in." A young Rex came in, and  walking up to Grrr said."I am Roger Rex, I am here to take LG to the Museum."
"Yeah?. Well the ladies are shopping, they should be back in an hour or so." Giving Roger a look that made the younger rex back up a few feet. Grrr said" Sit down kid...lets talk."  to be continued

The T-Rex who shot rootbeer from his noise:

The girls had gone to the "Organic Faire" and Bob and Grrr were sitting in their favorite chairs watching an old horror movie on TV, when a commercial for "Grobal Warming" came on. Grrr started to snot and rootbeer shot from his nose. 
"Gad. Use a tissue!" said Bob. 
"I cannot help it. This is the funniest thing I have heard in 160 million years." Replied a laughing Grrr. "Here we are sitting in the Lair, with coats on and the heat turned up and some guy is talking about "WARMING". I tell ya pal, sometimes I worry about you humans."

CAN WE BORROW SOME COATS?

Can we borrow some coats?
Gretta went over to Stef's house and she was shivering. Pouring her a cup of hot organic tea, Stef asked her dino friend what was wrong. "It is this horrid weather." replied Gretta," Do you think that we could borrow some of those "coats" you humans wear?" "Of course, dear." Taking Gretta into her coat closet she let Gretta pick a "Ski" coat that matched her scales. "Oh..that is lovely and warm!" Sang a happy Gretta. She picked out a coat for Little Grettta and Grrr Jr. "But what about Grrr? You know how he is about anything new." "Bob is the same, that I suspect is why they get along, let me go and talk to him a minute." Gretta could hear the rumble of Bob's reply. Raptors have very good hearing. "Sure babe. Anything the old reptile needs." Going to Bob's closet. Stef took out his old marine field jacket. "I think Grrr will like this. It will match his hat. I had to ask Bob as it is his favorite and he would not lend it to just anyone. But you know how the boys are." Gretta took the coats back to her cave and show Grrr.
"I am NOT going to wear a coat...I am a T-Rex...You know that is a cool coat and with my hat....I would not want to hurt Bob's feeling...hum..it is warm...

Wont fight their wars.

http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2013/12/27/saudis-lament-have-been-stabbed-in-back-by-obama/ Seems that the Saudi are annoyed. We won't fight their wars for them. Now, you guys know that I am NOT a progressive/liberal, no "Hope and Change " sticker on my car. But in this Mr. Obama was right. If the Saudi and the Israelis, want to wage war against Syria and Iran, that is THEIR business.
It is not our war and not our problem. just talking to this guy from Saudi, he is NOT in the Saudi army and does not want to be, going for a Ph.D, yet he wants American troops to takeout Iran and Syria and sees nothing wrong in sitting in the student lunge while Americans fight and die.

Saudis lament, 'we have been stabbed in the back by Obama'

www.foxnews.com

“The bond of trust between America and Saudi Arabia has been broken in the Obama years, a top Saudi adviser told me.

Only two types of people

There are only TWO types of people GOOD and BAD.
Your position in one group or the other is not determined by color or gender or race but by YOUR actions.

Mikhail Kalashnikov just died

Mikhail Kalashnikov just died and the Liberals don't get the respect that Some Americans have for him.
As i see it men fight. Always have always will.
Liberals hate that very idea.,,thus hate and fear guns or any weapons.
Kalashnikov, as honor required, did his best, in a proper way, for his nation.
Just as we did and do for ours.
That is how men act.
He is to be respected for it.
RIP Mikhail.

Gretta is upset with Grrr.

Gretta is upset with Grrr.
Now not many people know this but Raptor ladies are VERY proper, well except for Flower, but that is another story. Anyway Gretta was telling Stef over tea, that she did not think it proper of Grrr to eat those people making fun of Christmas as it WAS Christmas EVE a time of love and forgiveness not devouring. As Grrr sees it, he flew all over the world. Americas. Africa. Asia. Europe and and everywere people of all religions, races and ages were happy to see him and even if of other religions, kind and polite. EXCEPT for those Christmas haters. So as Grrr sees it, "If ya don't respect Christmas, or at least are not polite about it, you don't get any of the benefits of Christmas. Which, to a hungry T - Rex, makes you a snack".

Grrr's Christmas adventure.

Grrr's Christmas adventure.
Grrr was back from the North Pole and he and Gretta were having Christmas dinner with Bob and Stef.
Stef noticed that Grrr was not eating as much as was his custom and asked if he was tired from filling in for the Christmas Dino.
"No, I am fine." Replied Grrr.
"He ate too much last night." replied Gretta.
"Over did the cookies and milk pal?" asked Bob.
"Nope. I did not eat a lot of them." replied Grrr.
As soon as the guys were in the garage looking at tools and guns, Bob said. "Not like you to stop at one helping and a small one at that.
Give pal. What is the story?"
"Well, I flew all over and people and kids every were were happy to see me and thinking about Christ and Christmas. Every one that is, except this group in, well never mind where, they were mocking Christmas and saying insulting things. Well when i landed, they started calling badnames and throwing rocks and things, guess they expected a little old human, not a T-Rex."
"Well? What happened?" asked Bob.
"Well, it had been a long night and I was hungry. Remember that law

The Christmas Dino part V III

The Christmas Dino part V III

Flower, Gretta's sister the hippy raptor and Stef helped Gretta hurriedly pack .
Dr. H assured Grrr that he would handle Grrr's case load at the Wellness Center. 
Vlad flew in to wish Merry Christmas as did Al Gator. 
Bob told Grrr that he would keep an eye on his Cave.
As Grrr and Gretta rushed to the Plane, all wished them Merry Christmas.
Grrr and Gretta made it to the North Pole..
The Gifts were loaded and with a ROAR of MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL...Grrr took flight.
So if you hear a Thump on your roof tonight and a mighty Roar...be of good cheer the Christmas Dino was there.
