pretty awesome, eh? soon they'll have a little tv for your radio where you can watch them sign their requests for memberships in american sign language! no lie, it's in the works.

exciting npr story of the day:
GIANT SQUID!



a team of japanese researchers have taken the first photos of a live giant squid. the only other time we've ever seen them is when they are dead and washed up or floating somewhere. their eyes are the size of volleyballs. insane. it often astounds me how much we don't know about the world we live in. and that we're killing it off little by little, day by day, hour by hour.

even though this is a great find for scientific community, we all know what they were really thinking:



i love dried squid! also, cuttlefish (which are rather cute, really). cats love it. mmm.... anthony says that it gives me dead rat breath, alas. (funions also do this, the "food" i hate to love.)
