Sometimes I just love you so much, Kevin. But you must know that penguins can't hold hands! They only have flippers!

[Youndyc]

RA, I truly wish you had loaded up the image as opposed to just the link. That picture is a riot!!!

[RandomAnthony]

I am sadly unskilled at loading up images...but thanks, Youndyc:)

[Lori]

Oh! HAHAHAHA I am so going to use that as my new AV!

[Youndyc]

Lori, isn't it perfect? I would like to get a big color print out of that picture and put it on my office door. It would really get people's attention as they approach!

RA, you did better than me!

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

Sheesh! Here you go:

[Lori]

What the heck is that anyway?

[Lori]

That's a penguin? Oh my. I guess I've never seen one look so...so...disgruntled and upset!

[Lori]

WtF?! Ha! Ha!

[Youndyc]

The Web is an amazing place filled with amazing people telling amazing stories.

[Youndyc]

I'm still chuckling over that picture! Guess it just hit my funny bone.

[Sally, la reina]

Is the penguin angry BECAUSE it held Kevin's hand?

[Youndyc]

Angry because it couldn't hold Kevin's hand - no opposable thumbs. No thumbs, for that matter. I suppose it could be pissed because Kevin held it's flipper.

[Sally, la reina]

Kevin probably squeezed its flipper.

[Félix]

It's a wing.

[Sally, la reina]

PENGUINS DON'T FLY!

[Félix]

Used to.

[Sally, la reina]

When?

[Félix]

I don't remember. But a long time ago. Probably when whales walked on land.

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

They fly through the water. It's adorable. :)

[Sally, la reina]

Thanks Jackie! That made my night.

[Félix]

They really do fly through the water, don't they?

[Kevin]

well, if you must know, my arms/hands are perfect for holding flippers with a penguin.

[Kevin]

we just have to get really close hence the look on the penguins face when he discovered i had garlic for lunch

[Félix]

I think they would like the anchovies.

[Youndyc]

flipper, wing, whatever. It was still disturbed by Kevin's presence holding it. Although Kevin claims that his arms/hands are "perfect" for holding flippers with a penguin. Odd. Personally, I think that maladjusted penguin would have poked Kevin's eyes out - not only would he NOT be still for the surgery, the surgery would no longer be needed...

[Kevin]

i hummed the theme from happy feet throughout the surgery which seemed to calm him a bit

[RandomAnthony]

Kevin, why do you have a big window from one room to the other behind you? Is the other room where the scientists gather to observe your behavior?

[Kevin]

yes, sorta skeeved me out at first but i am used to it now. i now just go about my day inside the enclosure. occasionally they give me a mild shock when i do the naked king tut dance but mostly it is just observing

[Youndyc]

Re: Comment 87: quick and good thinking!

[Youndyc]

And he didn't look like the sort to be so easily placated

[Sally, la reina]

I think Kevin is actually an undercover detective.

[Félix]

He's detecting under the covers?

[Kevin]

undercover detective. hmmmmmm

I just seriously LOVE that picture. Until we get to a new page, every time I come back to read comments, I just crack up as I scroll past that picture!


Edit: shoot! It doesn't show - scroll up to Messgae 63

[Youndyc]

Kevin, is undercover detective better than rogue chocolatier? Just asking.

[Kevin]

not if you are willie wonka

[Sally, la reina]

I still see the penguin, Jackie!

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

Me, too!
