Newton’s Emporium Idea

Newton: So Ashton, I heard that you were worried about the chicken supply.

Ashton_thinks_about_chicken_extinction_wm

Ashton: Don’t remind me. It makes me feel faint just thinking about it.

Newton: Did you see that Miss Susan from Life with Dogs and Cats told us in our comments that “Scientists now believe that dinosaurs didn’t completely disappear; they’re still with us in a different form: birds. So here’s a thought for you: Chickens are dinosaurs.”

Newton thinks that chickens are dinosaursAshton: I did, but if we’re running out…

Newton: Hey, do you know what that means? Instead of chickens at the emporium, we can serve dinosaurs!

Newton and Ashton's Dinosaur Emporium StorefrontAshton: I don’t think you’re understanding the issue here. And wait… Who said I was going to take you up on your offer to buy into my chicken emporium, anyhow? I see what you did there. No deal, buster!

    BOL! You could always take a visit to Jurassic World as an alternative. Although, the risks may outweigh the unpleasantness of switching to a non-chicken source of protein. *wags* – Gilligan from WagsAhoy.com

    Dinosaurs for lunch? That would be interesting. Perhaps the world isn’t running out of chicken though. What if chickens just decided that they were going to start migrating and didn’t tell anyone about it? They’ll be back. MOL It does sounds like someone is trying to butt in on your business Ashton.

    TBT told us he had to laugh, remembering an old sci-fi-short story where the first use of a time machine was to bring bach some midget Rexs. After a fire burned all the little TRexs, people discovered the best “fried chicken” ever. And started raising them for food!
