PZ, if your intention has been, via these Friday postings, to educate those of us formerly blind to the charms of these creatures - I'd just like to tell you that it's working.
I made noises I normally reserve for kittehs when I saw this picture. This has become a typical response for me. Thanks.
I have seen red squid while snorkeling in the Sea of Cortez. Most were about 18 inches long and a bit darker cherry red. They were not shy swimming in shallow water during daylight. Some dead ones washed up on the beach, the color remained striking. I wonder if the bold color has an associated a bad taste or toxic tissue. If the color persists when cooked it would make a very graphic calimari on pasta.
Yay!
A slice of sweet red pepper and a caper missed the salad bowl and are lying forlorn and alone on the black granite kitchen counter?
Chili pepper 'pod?
E.V.:
My thoughts exactly!
I knew it, they're commies!
Go Reds! Smash State! Rah rah rah!
In 4 days I will be swimming with the fishes. Let's hope I see some cephalopods.

Now that's what a camera is for!
Smokin' hot.

Sort of... only the pepper will grab your face and bite you to the amusement of your fellow diners.
How do you like my little red sports squid?

tasty... but it looks kinda angry, so the question is: am i tastier to it than it is to me, and who's more likely to find out?

That was my thought as well.
"Sports squids, now in 'arrest me red'".
Don't know if it has been done but, I'd like to request a little Vampire with my squid please. :)

A hah, I see someone has finally caught on to my secret ingredient for my famous Thai Red Curry. It negates the need to add any extra fish sauce.
It's obviously an octopus, which proves that evolution is a satanic lie.
So where can I find these creatures? The nearby aquaria never seem to have enough types of sea animals to keep me happy.
Now thar's a handsome devil.
How red can anybody get?
New Mexico demands a matching green one, to go with its state question.
Herr Prof.,
That's real beauty, if it was a painting I'd buy it.
Creationist spotted at 2 o'clock. Present arms. Aim Fire.
You know, that eye reminds me of Jack Nicholson.
His lower lip also reminded me of Bart the bear.
