It appears to be a rock. Why do you think that the object is a bone?
“A man should keep his little brain attic stocked with all the furniture that he is likely to use, and the rest he can put away in the lumber room of his library, where he can get it if he wants it.”
--Sherlock Holmes (Arthur Conan Doyle) in "The Sign of Four"
This bone is the distal end of a femur, Polycotylid Plesiosaur, which is the short-necked Plesiosaur.
Something for you to visually compare. I found it in Arkansas.
Wow! Perhaps, I am missing something, but there was no judgement of your psyche, that I perceived. Instead, Harry wanted to know the characteristics of your stone, that you thought, indicated it was bone.
I realize that I have little standing on this forum, but I am familiar with Harry's ability to identify vert material. As far as I have witnessed, his knowledge is unsurpassed... professional, or otherwise(and I know a few of both ).
If you wanted someone to justify a preconceived conclusion, then why did you ask for opinions?
BTW, I know little of vert material, but I know a little something about rocks. Get some better photographs, with close ups, and I can probably, intimately, describe your stone.
Yea, It was about 327 years into the latter Jurassic on a Wednesday...
Cappy Z, you give the impression that you really don't "appreciate any help" (which surprises me given your initial request and your Charter Member status on this forum). Your photos barely reveal enough detail to even make a guess. So, until your request is sincere and photos are clearer, your specimen will be whatever you want it to be....

My god man, loosen up a bit. This isn't honors physical anthropology. It's suppose to be 'fun' here.
Keep your criticism on my fossil, please. Did you know the Neanderthals had no sense of humor? And look what happened to them...

...uhh, I thought I was helping to ID the furry one under the "fuzzy" one.
Apparently, you've found a funny bone. (That ID was so easy, even a cave man could do it.)
