A dialog from the future

Me: So I heard they finally cloned a dinosaur on the news this morning.

The Dinosaur: Yeah, I heard that too. I thought the dinosaur genome was incomplete due to eons of degradation, which would have precluded such a cloning event, but those clever scientists figured out a way to do it.

Me: Anyway, what did you want to have for lunch?

The Dinosaur: You.

Me: Damn, I knew it would come to this. If you insist on eating me, would you please start at my feet and work your way up? Oh, and give my regards to my salamander, jerome. I guess I probably loved him the most since he insisted that his name always be printed in lower case.
