Saturday God postcard

From my pal M- in Walla Walla, WA. I'm not sure what the actual title of this piece is, as there is nothing on the back of the postcard. If you know, leave a comment.

Pour a glass of delicious Amarula cream liqueur. Add Rogue Hazelnut spice rum to taste. Damn good.

On back:
Entelodonts
Among the largest animals known from the John Day formations are entelodonts - omnivorous, piglike giants, some reaching the size of bison. The large flanges on the cheek bones and lower jaw are distinctive traits in this group. Top to bottom: Archaeotherium calkinsi (skull), Daeodon sp. (jaw), Daeodon humerosus (forelimb)
