We all know our government is at best inept and at worst corrupt. Everyday you read stories about them buying a toilet seat for $10,000 or funding research to watch shrimp on a treadmill. So when we had the opportunity to bid on a government storage unit we had no idea what we would end up with. Deep within the dusty old storage boxes in an non decrepit government building were some truly amazing finds.
Take a close look at this fossil we found. This thing totally blew our minds - It was still packaged and ready for shipment along with its shipping lable. But look really close at the claws of the beast.
Can you see it? Buried deep in the claw of this old dinosaur! Here is another picture closer up. Keep in mind that this head is a couple of feet long.
Now how did a coca cola bottle end up in the claws of an extinct dinosaur? In my opinion the scientists who found this were aware of something extraordinary. It must have been trapped in a time warp experiment straight out of the cold war era! They did the right thing and contacted personnel from U.S. Department of Science and were ordered to ship it to a special unit within the department of Justice. Specifically they were to ship to Agent Scully and Muldar. We have no idea what bureaucratic mishap caused these finds to be stored for years and how they ended up being auctioned off but I am sure there will be a
blue ribbon committee convened to investigate.
Along with the soda drinking Dino were a couple of other oddities like this dinosaur egg complete with a dinosaur. Also in the box was the fossil of another small dinosaur and the original shipping label.
You can see and view these great finds at our store. The raptors were moved into the furniture room so we would have space to display these new additions to our store. We also have a huge slab or rock of some kind with fossilized fish on both sides. For those of you old enough - think back -Rod Serling -Theme song of the twilight zone.
