Do you have a jpg of your great 8 candidates sign from last year? Octopus theme, wasn't it?

If only that octopus would walk out of the country.

Just watch the Discovery Channel in a few weeks and they'll de-bunk this just as they did, "HOGZILLA!"

I hate sea-creatures. There's a reason they live down there and I live up here and we eat them. (And they eat us when given half the chance.) *SHIVER*

Did it ever occur to anyone that maybe things that live in the sea are the true "Aliens" and they're not coming from Outer Space? They're already here! Eeeekkk!

A guy goes into a bar with his pet octopus and says "I bet $50 that no one here has a musical instrument that this octopus can't play."

The people in the bar look around and someone fetches an old guitar.

The octopus has a look, picks it up, tunes up the strings and starts playing the guitar. The octopus's owner pockets the fifty bucks.

Next guy comes up with a trumpet, octopus takes the horn, loosens up the keys, licks its lips and starts playing a jazz solo. The guy hands over another fifty bucks to the octopus's owner.

The bar owner has been watching all this and disappears out back, coming back in a few moments later with a set of bagpipes under his arm. He puts them on the bar and says to the guy and his octopus, "Now, if your octopus can play that I'll give you a hundred dollars."

The octopus takes a look at the bagpipes, lifts it up, turns it over, has another look from another angle. Puzzled, the octopus's owner comes up and says "What are you fooling around for? Hurry up and play the damn thing!"

The octopus says "Play it? If I can figure out how to get its pajamas off I'm gonna make love to it!"

In Australia, O. aculeatus was seen raising two arms above its head before lifting four more and moving backward on the two remaining arms. The researchers described it as looking like "a clump of algae tiptoeing away."

There you go again.

Bill Clinton is wishing he'd evolved directly from this octopus--"Damn, I could harass three or four women at once if I had all those arms!"

The two most famous products of UC Berekley are BSD and LSD.

I think Ms. Christine L. Huffard was sampling some of the latter.

This crocodile was on the beach in front of the Petroleum club, Plage Sportive In Pointe Noire, Republic of the Congo. 21 FT long, 4,500 lbs, around 80 years old minimum.

Specialists said that he was looking to eat humans because he was too old to catch animals. For the past few months in some villages close to Pointe Noire people were complaining that some people in their villages have been disappearing, and it could well be this crocodile that's responsible. This crocodile was killed by the army last Sunday at 3:00 pm, currently he is in the freezer at the Azur hotel. The contents of it's stomach will be analyzed this Friday at 2:30pm.

Does this mean we have to give it a green card?

Remarkable creatures. Their normal lifespan is only a couple years but they're extremely intelligent. They've been known to manipulate and open the latches on cages and then amble across boat decks to freedom.

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.
