You must've boned up on the subject. It's amazing what you can do if you're willing to really dig in.

Everyone who wishes to enter a pun shall reply to this thread, leaving their best play on words. Three days from now (which, for me, will be June eleventh) I will signal an end to the entries, and a start to the voting. Everyone who wants to vote for the best pun will comment beneath their favorite. You may only vote once! The pun with the most votes wins..ah..er..bragging rights?
If anyone is opposed to this I'm quite fine with just letting it die. But if no one is- let the games begin! -
Okay, entry time is over! by

...I might as well have it delivered via Allosaurus Express. That is, it will be sealed in an envelope made from cycad leaves and tied to the ankle of a carnosaur, which will in turn be led to wherever the pun contest is being held.
Will it work?
You bet Jurassic can. -

I was going to use the Tyrannosaurus Express, but I wasn't sure how to use a Cretaceous pun.
Ah, well. You can, uh, chalk it up to me wanting a more recognizable term!
(Get it? No? Fine. To explain: The Cretaceous period is derived from the Latin "creta", or chalk, referring to the extensive beds of calcium carbonate deposited by the shells of marine invertebrates found in the upper Cretaceous of western Europe.) -
That was pretty tenuous. by

'Cuz I don't think "bastard" violates the PG-13 rating. Being a neat-freak will get you no soap from me. ^_~
