    but they can have you!

    For $300, $605 or $1,350 you can spend between 4 and 7 days digging up dinosaurs, megafauna and rainforests with experts from the Queensland Museum.

    How cool is that

    Heard about this again on the radio last week.
    Would love to join them on the September Elliot Dig (if there's still spots available.)

    Saaaaaay, anyone got $1400? (Includes tips.)

    Very cool... Unfortunately I'm nothing but a poor student, so this sort of thing just isn't possible...

    If I had that sort of money I would do a little dance of glee, then when my joy subsided I would wonder where it came from? :p

    I know, like when someone sneezes into a tissue and then puts that tissue into there bag to which later they reach into to get some thing else that is in there but instead thier hand inadvertantly squishes into the mucas mess still on the tissue. They realise what has happend and they begin to look ill.

    You should never ask that person what is wrong as you don't want know lest you too feel ill. [face_sick]

    or how about when people wash their kids faces with a hanky... you don't want to know if they've used it to blow their noses earlier

    Scientists hail Qld dinosaur dig.

    Here's the story.


    One of the coordinators David Elliott says some very large bones were discovered, well-preserved in solid rock.

    That would be cool if you actually discovered some "megafauna" or even, well, anything really, but slightly less cool if you spend a week in the sun brushing a piece of dirt.


    *reads article*

    Oh yeah, thats cool :cool:

    I have a garden and a puppy, who is quite expert at digging.


    Much more cost effective.

    Meh... I can think of better things to do in outback Queensland. Wing-walking on jumbo jets, getting pissed at the Longreach RSL club, water-skiing on the Thomson River, watching wedge-tail eagles snack on roadkill... it's all good fun I tell ya. :)
