I think it’s the best story yet!

I haven’t seen anybody mention (although I’m sure many have) that “walrus” in French is “morse,” Polish “mors,” and in several other languages “morsa,” which I think sounds a bit like his last name, “Demers.” Phil de Morse?

I sent it to I Can Has Cheezburger, a blog that my sister and I have a love-hate relationship with (mainly I love it, she hates it), hoping they’d post it on their site, but they haven’t yet. Perhaps I shouldn’t have sent it as an attachment, perhaps they just get a lot of emails (it’s amazing, they’re less than three months old, but they get at least 25,000 hits a day, and they’re about to be reach the top 1,000 blogs on Technorati’s ranking system), but they haven’t posted it yet.

I kind of like it a lot, so I thought I’d share it.

Update: lol lukit sweet rite?

So I’m posting something with big teeth…..

I took these pictures at Kamogawa Sea World in Japan.
Maybe the multiple pictures can make up for the lack of posting yesterday, and the late posting today…. Sorry!

Mike Biard is a California based photographer who takes lots of cool photos of lots of cool things. The photo shown above, of a northern elephant seal bull, obviously caught my eye. So cute. Sooo—- not pretty. So uglorable!
