Special Guest Shot #8: Dr. Hank Pombo, Paleontologer

dogimo: Hello all, and welcome to another edition of Special Guest Shot, where we take a turn for the scientific, the controversial, the educational. Here with us today is Dr. Hank Pombo. Dr. Pombo, would it be fair to say that your controversial theories have put both paleontologists and geologists worldwide in a tizzy?

Dr. Hank Pombo: No, I would not say so! None of my ideas are controversial, and in fact, none of them are theories! All of it is facts proven true. Those who dispute it do so for reasons of their own, such as incompetence!

dogimo: Strong words. Tell us what it's all about!

Dr. Hank Pombo: Well, first we have to talk a little about the dinosaurs. The word "dinosaur" comes from the ancient Greek. It means "thunder lizard." And you can bet when those ancient Greeks saw dinosaurs coming, it was "get the fuck out of here! Here come those damn dinosaurs!" Fortunately for the rise of we more civilized types, the dinosaurs all went extinct with the massive eruption of Mt. Vesuvius, and the world has not much missed them since.

dogimo: Except for paleontologists, perhaps.

Dr. Hank Pombo: Yes, with the exception of a few disgruntled types who can't be satisfied until they dig up everybody's dead and buried past and rummage through it with a microscope. I prefer more direct methods such as hard work, and thinking strongly about things.

dogimo: And what discipline are you a doctor of, Dr. Pombo? If you don't mind giving us a bit of background, to sort of flesh out a biographical picture of yourself.

Dr. Hank Pombo: I am a podiatrist. But one with a keen interest in proving things true! I have long raised my sights high above the feet of others! And what I see does not add up, and so I must challenge it.

dogimo: It takes a lot of courage.

Dr. Hank Pombo: But anyway, the dinosaurs. Mt. Vesuvius, this is what they will not tell you. Prior to that eruption, Mt. Vesuvius was a completely peaceful mountain, not a volcano at all! But I honestly believe that it was turned into a volcano, by the introduction of comet fragments into its peaceful core, by a hostile intelligence.

dogimo: Hostile to us?

Dr. Hank Pombo: Hostile to the dinosaurs.

dogimo: So this is your theory then, that's causing all the controversy. Yes, pardon me, I recognize you don't recognize it as controversy, or as a theory. But for the sake of argument, this is it?

Dr. Hank Pombo: For the sake of argument, no! No one disagrees with this, in fact I only just brought it up to you, now, for the first time ever. We're only getting started, here - this is only the hidden roots of the earth-shaking truth of mine that people can't stand!

dogimo: Well by all means then! I'm honored you'd debut that little tidbit of a bombshell on our humble program. Let's proceed without interruption while you state the rest of your case!

Dr. Hank Pombo: Thank you.

dogimo: We'll pick up here in part II.

Dr. Hank Pombo: Thank you.
