no laughing please

hennypenny — Fri, 21 Apr 2017 16:29:09 GMT

Last night we went to a function at our Museum of Natural History.

A skull of a baby mammoth was found out at one of the nearby islands and it is being studied here in town.

The curators were there to discuss their findings.

At one of the "stations" they offered temporary tatoos of a mammoth.

Of course I had to join in the fun.

Questions to parents. How do I remove this critter from my arm? Tried soaps, lemon, and mayo. No luck.

mr. henny is enjoying my "anguish".

Baby oil on a cotton ball should do it.

I would keep it. If someone asks about it, you can tell them about the skull, the research and perhaps they will plan a visit to the Museum. : )

If it's henna, it has to wear off

It's temporary, just let it wear off. You must have got it because you liked it, so enjoy it.

Thank you, all!

I will try your suggestions. I was going to ask siri but she has been slacking off lately.

I guess I truly won't expire if I have to "wear" this critter for a few more days, but for some reason I am done.

A little laughter is fine!

@SahmIam, That is a good idea.

It is fascinating. The islands were at one time one large island and one tip was quite close to the coast. The mammoths were able to swim between the coast and the islands. they had some eight thousand year old bones from another site there, and the new found skull there for us to see up close.

They said they were able to extract some dna from the skull. We have been members there for about forty years and love the work they do.

And that is EXACTLY what I would tell someone if they asked about your "art". I think that's fascinating and I know my younger son would LOVE to see something like that and hear about it; many of his friends would. What a great way to open up historty to someone!

Maybe get a tattoo of a tyrannosaurus rex? That should get rid of him.

Silly me -- I thought the thread was going to be about certain hosts who laugh too much !!!

Very interesting about the skull that was found though.

If it's the decal type that they wet and slide the backing off, use baby oil.

I am laughing with you, not at you @hennypenny. It sounds like you had a wonderful evening (better than most of mine!).

Okay, I have read all the suggestions. And I am quite sure one, if not all, will work.

I am however going to keep it through the weekend as we will be attending the Earth Day festivities and it will be good for that.

It is one of those kiddie sticker things.

Speaking of henna, I love the henna work and usually get some at the Earth Day festival.
