Tasty

Watching Naked Science show about feathered dinosaurs. I think if I'd seen this as a kid, I'd have liked dinosaurs so much better. I love that D likes this stuff too. That they were colorful, funny creatures, capable of anything. No doubt including seeing color, and being smart and colorful. Maybe like mynas, they could talk as well. A whole pre-avian society.

It's all about chickens. Which came first? Well, I've long reasoned that the proto-chicken's ova mutated to produce the first real chicken - as an egg. The egg had to come first. Or, more pedantically, there have been eggs far longer than chickens. But, it does appear that chicken-like creatures have been around for a breathtakingly long time. Chickens can't quite fly, either. Humans ate chickens just like every other predator, probably from the moment they evolved. Mudflat chickens. Perhaps why everything edible tastes like chicken. The template for being tasty.

Chicken say, "Yeah, laugh all you want. I'll be here eating the cockroaches long after you are dust."

I don't think that chickens can survive here without assistance through the winter. I believe the cockroaches can.
