Offline (What, again?!?)

I'll be traveling on business for a couple of days; therefore, it's open thread time!

So, what's as extinct as the great auk?

    Remember, great oaks from little acorns grow. But the great auk, alas, is dead as a dodo.

    It's last refuge:

    My patience with leftists, useful idiots, environazis, celebrity con men, self-destructive celebrity "entertainers", opportunistic and dishonest politicians, fraudsters masquerading as "scientists", and did I mention leftists?

    Titanus walleri, South American "killer bird", about 6 feet tall and the top-tier predator at the time.

    Ummm, I know, I know, as extinct as Julia Gillard telling the truth!

    Also agree whole heartily with RebeccaH's post.

    The dodo is not extinct. Not until January of 2013 anyway.

    Offline again!?! Business, you say. Hmmm. Wasn't it you that was talking about a vacation recently? Okay, just cuz it's (as in "it is)you.

    In answer to the Great Auk question, it would be as extinct a opossum on a highway.

    RebeccaH, you left out my favorites: the Food Nazis specifically, and all the rest of the Center for Science in the People's Interest in general. They make other Leftists look almost normal.
