Turtle Love
This is funny and sad. I wish people would think of how they sound when they are taking a video. The kid taking the footage is obviously no more than thirteen.
I am secretly pleased to post my first “sex” and “animals” post.
I Just Played This Game for 15 HOURS STRAIGHT!
And I am now insane…
Oh, and happy Christmas.
Flocking behavior
Check out this post on Cosmic Variance about a group of physicists who study flocking behavior. The video is amazing.
Keep za monkeys away from his hands!
Le Tour Dog France
Poor Marcus Burghardt, good thing it wasn’t a German shepard in the French countryside. No telling who would have been fingered as the collaborateur. J’accuse!
Oh, and carbon-fiber wheels may be light, but they ain’t shit against a yellow lab!
Badger, Badger, Badger, Badger…
I just got a link to this story from a friend and it seemed like perfect 8 and 5 material:

It’s only a matter of time before someone builds a Badger, Badger, Badger, and substitutes the Mushroom for Muslim or Mukhtar or something. I’d do it if I wasn’t somewhat busy at work today.

I am going to keep posting YouTube Videos until someone else posts…
This is a hostile takeover!

Unforgettable = Giant Squid
While playing Apples to Apples at the cabin up near Grand Marais, one of the categories was “Unforgettable”. Someone played the card “Giant Squid.” Everyone thought it was a pretty stupid card to be played, but the player argued, “Hey man, if you ever ran across a Giant-Effing Squid you would think it was unforgettable!”
Case in point: New Zealand fisherman have not only had an unforgettable experience, but they set a world record for the largest Giant Squid ever reeled in.
That pretty much seals it for me. From now on when someone suggests you come up with something you would always remember for the rest of your life, I will think of: a Giant Squid.
What would YOU think of as “unforgettable?”
Is it wrong for me to find that picture arousing?
Jean-Claude loves the spotlight. I mean REALLY loves it.
I don’t want to bring down the level of the content here on 8&5. Unfortunately, and for reasons that I can’t begin to fathom, I feel compelled to post this video. For the sake of my conscience, though, I’m including a warning. Anyone with an aversion to 90’s action stars, stone-washed denim, or pup tents should look away.
“Sir, do you have a license to carry that?”
