Penguins can fly!

Well, this one can. It was being transported from a science exhibition when the air crew decided to give the little guy a run down the aisle of the cabin to stretch his legs.

OH, and the passengers got a free lecture on penguins over the in-flight intercom.

Here's a video from a passenger: YouTube - Penguins on a Plane (original)

I want one...it's so cute!

I once heard a man on a radio show saying he'd eaten penguin and that it was rubbery, oily and tasted of rotten fish.

My other favorite Penguin reference (I can't seem to find video....)


It saddens and hurts me to think that the two boys I raised to believe in The Ten Commandments have returned to me as thieves, with filthy mouths and bad attitudes!
