Random Quote
One would like to believe that people who think of themselves as devout Christians would also behave in a manner that is in according with Christian ethics. But pastorally and existentially, I know that this is not the case — and never has been.
[John Neuhaus, in San Jose Mercury News, Sept. 1993]

Definitely not a cuddlefish.

John P is just rude. It's as furry as a fungus colony, it has beautiful greenish-gray-brown flesh with pretty pink stripes, a cute combination inspired by color-blindness, and large friendly eyes with gaping pupils like black mine shafts.

OK, I give up, which end is the face? Or perhaps as the old saw goes, with a face like that I'd shave my tentacles and swim backwards.
Actually, 'tis a beautiful critter.
