Bio
Hi. My name is ..Spot the Elusive Dinosaur... I'm one of Marty's ..Sock Puppet Portraits.., though I sort of resent the possessive implication..... I was born a little more than 65 million years ago. At the time, I was awesome at hiding. This is still true. Often while hiding, I would fall asleep (the doctors these days call it 'narcolepsy'). Again, still true. 65 million years ago I was hiding, fell asleep, and when I woke up there were no more dinosaurs, just a bunch of humans using Myspace (and most of them had moved on to Facebook, anyways...).... I blame a non-existent Creator for my lonely disposition in this universe, and, despite a perceived lack of any kind of working hands or arms, I've decided to take up what you humans call the "ukulele" and sing about it... .. And I like to watch and study birds. It's like hanging out with your long lost cousin. They're weird, though...And I particularly like VHS tapes of nature specials from the 1980s, as well as toys from that same era that resemble birds, or even robot-style dinosaurs like those cool dinosaur transformers. .... I recently decided to stop eating meat and become a vegetarian, because I like birds too much, and other meat reminds me of my friends who are all dead. I found some awesome Vegan cheesecake in Chinatown!.... **********.. ....A message from our sponsor:.. Purchase any of Marty's 36 Sock Puppet Portraits (small framed photographs of sock puppets that Marty makes) at ..www.martystuff.com... Support the crazy arts! While you're at it, listen to sock puppets and people rock out together at ..www.unclemonsterface.com!........ ********* .... The Sock Puppet Portraits are on FACEBOOK, too! Join the ..Sock Puppet Portrait Appreciation Society.. Today! -

Sounds Like
If a dinosaur were to have been forgotten for 65 million years, woken up, gotten depressed about where all of his friends went, and then wrote some songs about it, I'd like to think it would sound like me. .... It most certainly does NOT sound like .. DENVER the LAST DINOSAUR, that disturbing load of upsetting-ness. .. .. .. .. ...... Seriously, this guy Denver is just messed up and delusional. I met him. Not only is he NOT the LAST dinosaur, he definitely isn't even a dinosaur. I think he might be a dude, or a dude whose Mom is an ostrich or something. It's actually pretty sad. I recommend not talking to him at a bar. Avoid.

Extraordinary observations in the field last week, Spot. The moment we forget our fascination with hanging out with a dinosaur who sings, we're then enamored by your voluminous aviary knowledge. Post a new song, you rapscallion! And grow a beard!
If I hear it from one more lady how freakin cute and charming you are, I will personally smash that ukulele over your grinning visage. Many times. Again and again.
new york!
Thank you for sailing with us on the Sea of Life aboard the boat called Friend Ship.
You are a wise and lonely dino.
We love you the way you've always been,
Pearl and the Beard
Yeahhh. I remember you. Shame about all your buddies. Good song, though.
