Actually, the dinosaur died while waiting for the bus!

The fossil, weighing some 19 pounds, was found in the cargo hold of the bus, which was headed for the capital of Lima, and had been sent on the bus company's package service. Peru has struggled for years to combat trafficking of fossils and artefacts. Recently Yale University in the United States agreed to return thousands of pieces taken from the ancient Inca citadel of Machu Picchu to Peru. "The jawbone that was found could be from a triceratops, even though dinosaurs like that have never been found in southern Peru," Pablo de la Vera Cruz, an archaeologist at the National University in Arequipa in southern Peru, said after examining police photos.

Kid Steals School Bus

The reason it went on for so long is that no one noticed the bus was being driven any differently!

clipped from news.yahoo.com DUMAS, Ark. - A 10-year-old boy took a school bus and led police on a chase along a rural highway, according to police. School officials had spotted lights coming from the bus yard around 11 p.m. Friday night, and reported the bus stolen. Officers from three counties, four towns and Arkansas State Police began chasing the bus and its driver. Despite road spikes set up to slow the bus, the bus kept traveling north toward Little Rock along U.S. 65 through Desha and Lincoln counties, then into the next county of Jefferson. They cuffed the boy and took him into custody, then later released him to his parents. It wasn't known whether the child would face charges. School officials said he had been part of a group caught on camera trying to pull the same prank last month, according to KATV television station in Little Rock.
