I believe it may well be of interest to some members to know that the pupil of an octopus' eye is rectangular.
There again most people may not even care
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been
In his octopus' garden in the shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see
An octopus' garden with me
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden in the shade.
We would be warm below the storm
In our little hideaway beneath the waves
Resting our head on the sea bed
In an octopus' garden near a cave
We would sing and dance around
because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden in the shade
We would shout and swim about
The coral that lies beneath the waves
(Lies beneath the ocean waves)
Oh what joy for every girl and boy
Knowing they're happy and they're safe
(Happy and they're safe)
We would be so happy you and me
No one there to tell us what to do
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden with you.
Very interesting. I can now add that to my random collection of random facts.
rridgely, I didn't know you cared!!
Nice poem.
One of my favorite Beatles songs.
Don't know much about Octopuses but I've wanted to go scuba diving and see their "gardens" for a while now. (as long as the Octopus wasn't home.. those things are gross looking. )
Hazelnut, don't tell me you've never listened to Abbey Road.

Funny, a goat's eyes are the same.
Q for a Beatles song about goats.
Hazelnut, don't tell me you've never listened to Abbey Road.
Never listened to it? ...I wrote the album!!
I can't wait for the opportunity to drop that into a conversation. I love these gems of useless information.

In that case, Dennis, enjoy!
Here you go Dennis chew on these facts....
Chickens that lay brown eggs have red ear lobes. There is a genetic link between the two.
A horse cannot vomit, neither can a rabbit.

You mean octopi?
I thought that looked strange when I typed it, thus I was too lazy to check.

And you can't flush a ping pong ball. (Why you would want to eat one in the first place is beyond me)
I'll make sure to keep all those interesting facts in mind.
did you hear aboout the magic tractor..............
it turned into a field
One more useless fact to store in our "useless information" brain cells:
The elephant is the only mammal that can't jump.
You mean octopi?
octopus + octopus = 3.14 (or octopi)
octopus + octopus = 3.14 (or octopi)
Surely octopi = 8 x 3.14
And as were on random info - a phrase I learnt in physics to remember 6 decimal places of pi that always stuck in my head:
3. I(1) wish(4) I(1) could(5) calculate(9) pi(2)
The elephant is the only mammal that can't jump.
You got that from Monk, didn't you.
