Penguins are cool.

I've got a friend who lives in southern Indiana. Near his house there's a road that skirts the bottom of the bluffs next to the Ohio River. On one stretch there's a "Snake Crossing" sign. It has to do with the snakes annual spring and fall migrations to and from the cliffs that make up much of the bluffs.

I understand there are "Turtle Crossing" signs along the roads that skirt the banks of the Miami River in Ohio for the same reason as the snakes in Indiana.

I hate to say it but Al is right; amphibians and aquatic animals are taking over the world.

Al is currently out wandering the countryside looking for a wifi signal. He's been tromping around the parking lots muttering, "Philly hotels are worse than Nashville's!" Then a bunch of kids came along, yelled, "It's Santy Claus!" and started pelting him with snowballs as is tradition in the City of Brotherly Love. They didn't count on the Santa of Pasadena being ambidextrous. He catches them with his right hand and heaves them back with his left.

George Zeller got caught in the crossfire and hurt severely. Instead of thinking he's Chief Wahoo, he thinks he's Chief Noc-A-Homa. The people of Cleveland are praying he recovers before baseball season begins.
