pic o’ the day: firefly Squid

From the same NORFANZ expedition as yesterday’s very attractive Mr Blobby photo. But as always, Squid is exquisitely beautiful while comparatively speaking the other sea creatures resemble nothing so much as a bloated and lethargic 45-year-old Kevin Federline. Who needs neon when they have Firefly Squid, eh? Can’t you imagine a party at the Aquarium beside a wall tank of Squid? Ah, better than a disco ball!

pic o’ the day: fossilized fairy

This genuine antique fossilized fairy from the collection of Takeshi Yamada is the kind of thing that throws Pharyngula and his fellow godless Darwinian crusaders into a frenzy. No doubt the heirs of Arthur Conan Doyle will be purchasing this irrefutable proof of the ancient existence of fairies, should it ever appear at Christie’s or Sotheby’s.

holy sheet! panda poo papers path to prosperity

 My god, what is that woman doing to that panda?

Sometimes the headlines just write themselves, eh?

The CBC, your go-to source for all panda-plop monetization scheme updates, has reported that Thailand’s Chiang Mai zoo is selling sheets of beautiful, handmade keepsake paper composed primarily of panda poop. It’s in great demand as a gift item.

“Saw this and thought of you.” How sweet.

When keepers of the country’s panda couple – Chuang Chuang and Lin Hui – tired of disposing the 25 kilograms of feces daily produced by the duo, Prasertsak Buntragulpoontawee came up with the idea of turning it into notebooks, fans, bookmarks and key chains.Pandas just poop too damn much!

“At first the Chinese were very skeptical,” said the head of Chiang Mai Zoo‘s panda unit…But the multicoloured paper products have proven hot selling-items at the zoo, with the the equivalent of about C$9,350 earned to date helping balance the accounts of panda keeping…

Prasertsak said he was inspired by sa paper, or mulberry leaf paper, a traditional, local product which has proven a highly popular gift item in recent years.

“… in the zoo, when people see real pandas and then their product they’re excited and buy.”

I’ll bet. Does Chuck Berry know about this? How about Mark Oaten? I forsee a radical new idea in super-personalized autobiographies…

But has anyone thought of the most obvious application?

TP Panda!

quiz: which tarot card are you

You are The High Priestess

Science, Wisdom, Knowledge, Education.

The High Priestess is the card of knowledge, instinctual, supernatural, secret knowledge. She holds scrolls of arcane information that she might, or might not reveal to you. The moon crown on her head as well as the crescent by her foot indicates her willingness to illuminate what you otherwise might not see, reveal the secrets you need to know. The High Priestess is also associated with the moon however and can also indicate change or fluxuation, particularily when it comes to your moods.
