If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Allen,
yup, the finds these days are nothing short of spectacular.

Saw on TV last night that Australian paleontologists have just found an entire MARSUPIAL lion skeleton in a 20-foot deep cave.

Imagine that...a lion from ???ago that kept its young in a pouch like a kangaroo. It also had a razor-sharp long talon on each front paw (if that's the right word), for grasping onto its prey while it finished them off.

Exciting stuff.
