Here is That Bizarre Species of Armadillo you Requested.


Did you know that this animal actually exists in real life?  It is called a Pink Fairy Armadillo, a name that is almost as hard to believe as the creature itself.  It has its own Wikipedia page and everything.  It is as though someone put armadillo booties on a prairie dog and then gave it a hat made out of scraps from a seafood restaurant.  What I mean to convey here is that this animal looks silly.

[UPDATE]

I still can't believe this animal exists.

They Have Knighted a Penguin

Listen: this blog is not supposed to serve as a means to broadcast to you all of the news stories I see in a given day (estimated number of news articles I read in a given day: 2?), but this story is too important not to yell all over the internet. A penguin has been Knighted.

Now You Know!

Here is Part Two

Of the illustrated guide to the trip I took to this country's upper west side.

Here is That List of Animals I Hope to see in Alaska

Did you know that I am going to Alaska? If not, you can find more Information about that here. Because Alaska is located close to the top of the planet it has numerous kinds of animals, most of which are not available to us here at the regular part of the planet. For organizational and personal reasons I have made a list of the animals I hope to see in Alaska. It follows:

  • Penguin
  • PanserbjØrn
  • Inuit
  • Baby Seal
  • Regular Seal
  • Navy Seal
  • Pokemon
  • Eskimo
  • Gazelle
  • Mammoth
  • Kitten
  • Moby Dick

I may or may not add to this list. I may or may not be able to give you much Information in the coming week due to the unavailability of internet in Alaska. (Alaska's internet deficiency is directly proportional to its biodiversity. Now you know.)
