the best things in life are ... EXTINCT!!!
Some may find this strange, but i have always had a fascination with the dodo bird.. mayb its becos this bird had been linked to dinosaurs and pre-historic creatures, or mayb its becos the dodo is the National bird of Mauritius (ha ha ha, n all ppl from there may strive to portray their characters as the dodo bird... hmmm, ) nonetheless, ive always liked this extinct creature. whilst in PMB , we stopped over at the Natal museum (which had freaky larger than life ants and insects on the entrance wall) and we saw the most wonderful displays( never been to a museum before, so it was quite an experince for me)... The dodo however, was the coolest !!!
so, took a pic n when i got home, showed it to my almost-4-yr-old nephew, who couldnt understand 1) what he was supposed to look at. 2) what extinct meant 3) after showing him a pic of a tiger also at the museum, he asked me if the tiger was also Extinct!!! (he is really very cute) and then, he got bored with me n my museum pics and fell off to sleep!!!!
its a pity, the children of this generation may nevr find the simple things in life as fascinating as the dodo bird!!!!
