If they are going to study sea snails to help improve memory, then they should study the jellyfish too.
8:43 AM Mr. Gray
They already do, because they are immortal; they technically never die of old age.
It might be just one species, but I know I saw something on that on The Science Channel.
“Jellyfish lifespans typically range from a few hours (in the case of some very small hydromedusae) to several months. Life span and maximum size varies by species. One unusual species is reported to live as long as 30 years. Another species, Turritopsis dohrnii as T. nutricula, may be effectively immortal because of its ability to transform between medusa and polyp, thereby escaping death.”
8:46 AM Mr. Brown
Oh yeah. I think I read about that one and saw something on TV.
It just turns back into a polyp, then grows up again.
8:48 AM Mr. Silver
And sucks blood and can turn into a sea bat and hates the sun!
8:49 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
8:50 AM Mr. Silver
(vampire meeting)
"Who's the ghoul with the bucket?"
"Escort for the Nutriculan delegate."
8:53 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
(Everyone but me seems to have forgotten we spent part of a day, not that long ago, talking about this jellyfish – Mr. Silver)

9:15 AM Mr. Gray
Wow....that can’t be good.
9:16 AM Mr. Silver
Kids love stuff that glows in the dark. Call McDonald's!

"Dr. Scarf's observations are disputed by one-time fellow researchers and rivals Drs Hat, Mittens, and Rubberovershoes."
10:02 AM Mr. Brown
“Sir, you cannot possibly expect us to believe that you have found a monkey pigeon.”
10:03 AM Mr. Silver
The Pigeon Apocalypse is nigh! Dr. Scarf has revealed their powers!
10:06 AM Mr. Silver
"The fools! The FOOLS! They doubted me! They ALL doubted me! But they'll pay! Oh yes! Come, my pigeon army! We will peck them down to size!"
"Coo."
"What do you mean you won't fight?"
"Coo...c-c-coo."
"You? In charge now! Are you mad! You're nothing without me!"
"Coo."
"You're pulling a coo? Oh...you mean coup! AUGH!!!!"
10:15 AM Mr. Silver
(Scenes of extreme violence and a final "coo" de grace.)
I'd like to make this film now; call it "Coo D'etat"
10:17 AM Mr. Blue
Ever see that recently made bird movie with the hoooooorrrrrrrible effects?
10:18 AM Mr. Blue
“Birdemic”, that's it.
The birds, which look terrible already, are fixed to certain spots on the screen, so as the camera moves and pans around, the birds never move.
10:20 AM Mr. Gray
Nice. Quality film, there.
10:26 AM Mr. Brown
I was telling Mr. Gray that the crow is the redneck parrot and the raccoon is the redneck monkey, pet-wise.
10:27 AM Mr. Blue
Crows are more intelligent than parrots aren't they?
Crows and ravens are super smart.
10:42 AM Mr. Silver
Nod. I looked into that...they warned potential owners about them being not only smart, but devious and they enjoy pranks. “If you get two, be aware they will gang up on you."
11:17 AM Mr. Blue
Get a dog.
(Note: I have not read any Tintin - I’m an Asterix man - so this characterization and text is
pure speculation…not that we’ve ever been too worried about accuracy in our spoofs.

7:20 AM Mr. Silver
Hmm...good review for “The Adventures of Tintin”
"What the last Indiana Jones should have been."
7:31 AM Mr. Green
Some hardcore Tintin fans have been complaining about it though... I guess they revamped some of the main characters, like the drunken Captain.
7:32 AM Mr. Silver
Meanwhile there were folks on the other side who didn't want it made due to racist source material.
Wouldn't it be funny if the two issues were the same coin?
"I can't believe they took all the anti-semitic stuff and the n-word out of the captain's drunken rampages!"
7:35 AM Mr. Green
Yeah... I think that was kind of it too, because the Captain in the comic was a real bastage.
7:36 AM Mr. Silver
(Spielberg) "We've decided to go for PG."
(Tintin fans) "Booooo!!!"
