There's a T-Rex for sale. His name is Samson. He's worth over 6 million, but once he settles in, he's practically maintenance free!

Buy a T-Rex

It's not worth 6 million to me. It's not worth 6 cents to me. All prices are imaginary until the sale actually takes place.

Experts say the 170 bones discovered about 17 years ago in South Dakota represent more than half the skeleton of a 40-foot-long (12-meter-long), 7.5 ton dinosaur that lived 66 million years ago


Which half ?

Replacing that old musty deers head in the living room with a freakin T-Rexes upper-body, tiny arms and all, would be pretty sweet. If it's the other half though I'm having a tough time thinking of anything to do with Samson that wouldn't make him the butt of a bunch of jokes.

You could get rid of the "Beware of dog" sign on the fence, hell you could probably get rid of the dog too. I guarantee a cat burglar sneaking into the back yard in the middle of the night only to set off a dim flickering motion light and a T-Rex audio clip from Jurassic park and see the skull of this thing suspended 6 feet in the air right in front of them is going to leave a few pounds lighter than they were when they got there instead of the other way around.

I'd like to put it in the entryway with a sign hanging from his teeth, "Samson is watching you...".

Maybe make a bed out of it for the little ones. Get a giant tongue matress made for it and everything.
Strong with this one, the sudo is.

Who wants to bet that camper john gets it then resells it on craigslist?
Like Mr Spork, I also write about my interest in alcoholic beverages.
