So where's our special report on the stegosaurus, Ibram?

Ibby · 01-06-2007, 12:02 PM

I just got home today, hold yer horses! I'll upload everything in the morning and get it all together tomorrow, I hope.

Ibby · 01-07-2007, 03:52 AM

Yes, it's there. Yes, I wrote that. Yes, it's got big 'ol spikes.

Oh look! It's got spikes too! It must be a curled-up stegosaurus!

Look, another one!

Hey, more!

It's just some animal with a Lotus motif behind it.

Thank you, thank you, really there's no need, calm down, you're a little starstruck ladies...

Isn't that Angelina Jolie in that other carving there?!! Oh, wait a minute...

Inspired by Ibram's remarks and photo, I took the opportunity this past week to go to Siem Reap and have a look at that Stegosarus myself. I can report that the carving is NOT discolored and appears genuine. Much of Ta Prom has been devistated by the jungle and many carvings are colored by algae and minerals some even pink. The pink in the original posting was obviously intended to mark the carving so people could find it. The real carving is the same as other surrounding stones. Here's my pretty Chinese girlfriend showing you the stone.

Hey thanks, whitjohn. It's always nice to have another picture from Siem Reap, of classic beauty.

And she certainly is.
