It just occured to me that we have in our presence a security guard named **Nuts**!😃 If one’s dinosaurs are carnivores I suppose one could allow ‘em to celebrate steak night by givin’ 'em a herd or two of cattle to gnaw on. If one’s dinosaurs are herbivores, mayhaps instead of cattle one could provide a forrest or two. It’s possible all dinosaurs would eat ice cream but maybe not the herbivores. That would depend on whether your herbivores are vegans or vegetarians I suppose. ---

I vividly remember Dad saying “Eat before we leave for Grandma’s, she won’t feed you 'til dark.” I didn’t even know _why_ she wouldn’t feed us until I was in high school. ---

> [@swampbear](#): > > Did she make ham or brisket? Grandma always had an extra brisket just hanging around somewhere. We once took a whole-family trip to South Carolina, and she brought one in an effing cooler on the plane. And it wasn’t enough to feed all twenty of us. I don’t know if she could even begin to feed the amount of family she has now. Not that anybody would let her. Or that she’d let anybody forget that she _wants_ to help, but everybody keeps making her sit down. PS, **flytrap** , my grandma’s matzoh ball soup was _divine._ I don’t think she’s made it in twenty years, though. I should ask her why. Because I would like some soup. Nothing else has ever come close to it.
