Whoever had created humanity had left in a major design flaw. It was its tendency to bend at the knees.

Cephalart

Here's the weekly collection of submitted art (and other) featuring cephalopods.

This is the work of Evan Harris, with his strangely dissipated-looking sailor playing a cephalochord.

Lego's Aqua Raiders set features a giant squid with too few arms: it looks more like a spider to me.

Look! Pearl Jam played in Australia!

This is part of a whole collection of octopus jewelry. Anybody who wants to buy me the complete set for Cephalopodmas, contact me and I'll send a shipping address.

The one piece is $1350. Cheap!

Thanks, Icequeen-- I think my wife would really like those sea turtles.

But did the nice Swiss lady have to call me a Schmuck right at the top of the page?

*laugh* Schmuck is a great German word. I remember wandering around in Frankfurt and seeing a store seemingly very proud of its Schmuck.

Actually, looking around on Flickr, it was this place. I gather their name is Christ and they sell Schmuck (adornment) and Uhren (clocks), but the image of "Schmuck Christ" is giggleable.
