Time to flush out my brain!
YouTube abounds with, er, “sightings” of extinct prehistoric animals… among them, the giant ground sloth. Several species of these populated North and South America. We don’t know why they went extinct, but we do know they’re not here anymore. Or do we?
I admit to a lifelong fascination with prehistoric creatures, and I would dearly love some of these goofy YouTube stories to be true. I can’t help reading unproved claims of giant sloths stepping into tar-pits, etc., according to witnesses who can’t possibly be traced. And maybe you wind up wondering, “Gee, was King Kong’s island for real?”
Well, there’s no quality control on the Internet, and anybody who knows how to do it can put up a post on anything he or she might imagine.
And sometimes you need a little goofiness.
