I think he's cute! Gonna order one to set on my desk, and name him Squidlinski (or Mosquidski). Add some googly eyes maybe.

Did you know? The Squid transformer was specifically engineered to optimize reception on radios with knobs.

Also, two work better than one. Order today.  ;D

Al -

You can't be of Italian descent....it is CALAMARI for god's sake, and IT has nightmares of being dipped in a basil garlic marinara sauce prior to sliding down your gullet barely chewed with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.  Now get to bed with no sfogliatella.

Al, penguins love squid. Perhaps you should think about calling a truce with your beaked better's?

I'm afraid he knew that when he posted "tentacle porn", Josh. He's tricky like that. When he thinks you believe all he cares about are knobs and bellowing sea-cows, he tries to set you up. He learned it at that fancy truck driving school he went to in the semester where they taught them how to check tire pressure and cheat lot lizards.
