1978 was a good year
first - it was the year i was born
second - that was the year that the Micropachycephalosaurus was named.
pronounced: my-kro-pak-ee-SEF-uh-lo-SAWR-us
an incomplete skeleton was found in the Shandong Province in China and given the longest generic name of any dinosaur. its' name means "small thick headed lizard".

king of gore
my pal, crane, sent me this article when i was recently on vacation. it touches on the top 10 new species discovered in 2013. if you scroll down to the bottom of this website you'll find Lythronax Argestes; the "great uncle of the T.Rex". Lythronxax means KING OF GORE. how badass is that? the specimen found has been dated at 80 million years old.
here's another article by national geographic on this new discovery. yay, science!!!

t.rex tooth found in duckbill dinosaurs' butt!
so there's this hungry t.rex cruising for a meal and it sees potential dinner. it sneakily sneaks up behind a duckbill dino and bites its' butt so hard that one of it's teeth falls out. the lucky duckbill gets away with a t.rex tooth forever lodged between it's tailbones! 67 million years later (that's right, the bible) scientists find the duckbill fossil with the t.rex tooth grown into its' butt which proves that t.rex's ate live prey.
BOOM.
here's the whole story on the cbc.
