This is one of my all-time favorites from a writing perspective (the visual is a little strange- originally I meant for DinoTam to be leaving the note, but it rather looks like he’s reading it instead, implying a complicated relationship with someone else- another raptor? a cannibalistic human keeper?- that wasn’t intended in the least).
But I love the writing. I’m never usually this clever, and I swear it won’t happen again.
I could use a gnome salad right now.

Oh wow. I distinctly recall that Writer’s Almanac, too. I was listening on my way to work. I *knew* it was so familiar.
So familiar, it too me a week or so to respond in here. =D
