Lots of people have sent me links to this—thanks, all!—and it's the perfect thing to lift me out of the finals week blahs, and it's also just in time for Mother's Day on Sunday: The Devonian Blues.

Every single girl and every little boy
Was born from the clan of the wayward Dipnoi
Don't let the preacher man spoil all the fun
Took a lot more than 6 days to get the job done
Amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals and man
All belong to the fish tribe, doncha' understand?

Your momma was a lobefinned fish
My momma was a lobefinned fish

Sing along, everyone!

The new t.o. Post of the Month is strangely appropriate as well.

Hey, has anyone heard of or seen "Flock of Dodos"? Sadly I didn't learn about it until it was too late to see it in New York...
