Headlines can make the story sometimes I tell ya...while perusing the news headlines online this afternoon I came across this article title "Scientists find fossil of super-sized bug." Go ahead and call me a nerd (self-proclaimed) but there was no choice, I had to click the link and get the scoop.
Brian and I play WoW all the time and he is in an area infested with giant killer bugs which he just can't stand. I chuckle now but will probably agree in fifty years when I finally catch up to him. So this article immediately reminded me of him. Haha.
"British scientists have stumbled across a fossilized claw, part of an ancient sea scorpion." The assumption from findings suggests the scorpion would have been about 8 feet long. Whoa! I can't fathom a bug of that proportion. I don't want to fathom it!
And so there you have it folks. Yet another reason why playing WoW can teach you something useful. Like how you would be able to kill a giant bug...um...that is if you were a Blood Elf Hunter or Mage. =o)
*The above graphic is a computer generated image issued by the University of Bristol in England shows a size comparison between a human an ancient sea scorpion.*
