Teechers these days. Kids came home from skool today giving me some cock and bull story about dinosaurs and how they lived millions of years ago

They even showed me a picture of some creature called a Trampasuarus Rex (T Rex) or something.

I clearly had to explain to them that this was a picture of a badger. They said 'but Dad, it is so huge.' I explained to them that, when the World began (6024 years ago) the atmosphere was 100% oxygen and that all creatures were huge. I went on to explain that humans at that time lived for 700 years or more.

They asked me if the humans were scared of the trampasaurus...I had to laugh, I explained to them that the T-Rex was just a big badger, humans (the rulers of the Earth) were much bigger and in fact, 6000 years ago humans averaged around 500 cubits high which is 400 feet or 650 meters. They now understand the complexity of the World.

Looks like I will have to home skool these youngsters to ensure they get a propar education.
