Dragons!!!!

Ok i have this really weird kid in my history class who is in love with reptiles. She told me this really weird story on dragons. She believes in dragons.

She said dragons evolved from a fish with 6 arms or something like arms. They were the first fish that could breather oxygen and keep it in their systems. She said when they evolved they were so light that they just floated, because of all of the oxygen in their bodies. I didnt exactly get how 6 arms turned into 2 wings, 2 feet, and the rest of the body.

She says that dragons are very adept at blending into their surrondings. Kind of like the secret invisible plains the us government has. She says they are so adept that you could be standing next to one and you wouldnt know it was there.

She also said there was more than just fire breathing dragons, there were also acid dragons, and ice dragons, and many more.

She said the reason dragon remains are never found is that all of the oxygen in their bodies causes their bones to decompose in less then a week.

Can someone please help me put some sense in to this girl. I have an open mind, but not that open.

smack her???

Have you seen the parents?, I-love-p.?

Alternatively, tell her she's a very, very bad girl: order her to lear all the Presidents and vice-presidents and their dates by heart over the weekend and threaten to give her home e-mail address to Tyler and FreeMason.

Okay...here we go:

2mg of Lorazapam - will calm her down

2mg of Haliprindol - will knock her out.

Send her to me in a nice rubber box and i will put her in the local State Hospital for psyciatric evaluation.

This ain't a joke....i can do this!

Either that...smother her in ketchup and leave her outside a dragons lair and keep notes of what happens!

...about a guy who is a dragon and eat the dreams of the peoples he meet.

aspects of Dragonheart (i.e. the blending into surroundings), with Dungeons and Dragons (varying breath weapons based on varying types of dragons). To show my geekness here, White Dragons breathe Ice, and Black Dragons breath Acid... Confront her with this, and then see what she says...

Agree there Gazrok

She also sounds like she is combining stuff from the film Reign of Fire!

Is this lassie a nutter?

Same as UFO's, God, Etc. There is no proof to deny or to accept the existance of dragons.. keep an open mind.

One word

Kimodo

ArcAngel.....

I believe in dragons!!!!!

It's just that the first part about the oxygen in the dragons bones made them diappear quicker....that made me skeptical!

I have a very open mind....if you look under my username you see that i have DragonWeyr....

Thats what the Dragon soulmates are called in Anne McCaffreys books!

Oh....Komodo....is that the Japanese large lizard?

DID exist in one form or another up till medieval times, but were vanishing even then, and during that time, were made extinct.

However, this girl's ideas about dragons seem wacked...

Pizza,
Give me her address and I will come to Scottsdale and set her straight. I am an expert and have helped out many a band member and countless drama students.

KOmodo- Indonesian, Gryffen.
I think this girl may be combining elements of various stories/ movies with childhood (we don't know her age of course) imagination: kids are good -if that is the mot juste- at this: many of us will be familiar with the "invisible friend" syndrome in childhood.
On the other hand, this may simple be congenital insanity.

The Estragonettes were raised with an unhealthy amount of Barney and a cassette that included "Puff the Magic Dragon". What damage Estragon may have caused -albeit unwittingly - will forever haunt Estragon after this thread.

actually gazrok your not geeky cause you got them wrong,
Green dragon breaths acid
Black dragon breaths choking smog
white dragon breaths ice freezing its enimies
red dragons breaths fire
blue dragons breath lightning
also ther is 3 types of dragon
dragon
great dragon
emporer dragon
lol see im a nerd tooooo

I'm right, you're wrong

Going from Dungeons and Dragons,

Greens breathe poison gas,
Blacks breathe acid
Whites breathe ice
Reds breathe fire
Blues breathe electricity

And that's just the chromatics....then there's the metallics....(Gold, Bronze, Silver, Copper, etc.) which have combo breath weapons (one of the chromatics' and then one other breath weapon usually)

Not sure where you got the three types, as in D&D they're ranked by age category...Hatchling, Young, Young Adult, Adult, Old, Venerable, Ancient, Great Wyrm, etc.

Trust me....(or not, and look it up )

Bow to my D&D geekiness...

I think that the mods and admin on this site should be glad they have someone who works in mental health on this board?

YOU GUYS ARE ALL NUTTERS!!!!!

Glad to finally fit in somewhere!

she right may be the dragon didnt involve anymore,or the situation of the time like the ancient volcano eruption the ash may be doing something to this kind of creature.and this creature also can spit some fire right
who know more, i m just guessing

There are many theories that attempt to explain the firebreathing ability that dragons posess :

---
One theory : dragons are filled with hydrogen, so they don't actually fly, they float...............
It ties into firebreathing because dragons can just expel he hydrogen and ignite it somehow, sometimes creating a chemical reaction, by grinding their teeth together......................

---
Another theory suggests that dragons are able to rearrange their insides at will, to produce the chemical reactions they want, like the ability to breathe fire............ One dragon can rearranged his insides so that he is able to breathe fire backward........ Then he is able to propel himself so fast this way, and can produce shockwaves.

I just got an image of a dragon flying about with flames coming out of his arse.
