"Science" is all over the place these days, like a pea in a whistle. On Tuesday science tells us that Terri's starvation is painless. On Monday they administer morphine. Friday we evolved from this, Saturday we evolved from that, Monday we evolved from the other thing.
So sorry--didn't mean to dis generic weasels----was thinking more of the one that lives on Don Trumps head----as well as the pot bellied little commie.
Is this an Arkansas wedding?
I saw a special about them on the science channel a couple years ago. That being said, my personal contact with Octopi has generally been in the chilled food section of Asian hotel lunch and dinner buffets.
Maybe you worked on me----my teeth are filed and I got the bill for the 'Gator?
Remember, Cthulhu loves you.

You almost never see this big guy in my neck of the woods (North of Boston.) but it is possible. I am going up to Nova Scotia in June and perhaps I will see one. It is the worlds largest Jellyfish. It can reach seven feet across and it's tentacles can go down 100' and yes, it IS potentially fatal to be stung by one. It's not the most poisonous but that is a relative thing for a beast like this. I give you the Lions Mane Jellyfish...
Under the water is the safest place to be if there are beasties lurking. It may be scary because you can see them but Divers are the least likely to get hit. We call swimmers "Shark-Bait".
I love the Ocean!
Arioch7 out!
We had a three-legged President. I believe he was from Arkansas.
Those were John Edwards sightings.
Yeah, isn't the plural "Octopiss"?
