roar

when i was in fifth or sixth grade my parents took us to chicago for the weekend. it seemed like so far away back then, like a different world. one of the places we went was the museum of natural history. always looking for a souvenir, i spotted a strange machine that would make plastic moldings of a dinosaur. just slip in a dollar and you could see it pour and squeeze the plastic into the shape of a t. rex! my dad and i thought this was quite cool!
