    Aww, this reminds me of the late, lamented NY Aquarium walrus, Ayveq, who became notorious for certain . . . behaviors. But he was also a friendly, curious walrus, who used to swim up to the glass to look back at the little kids who were looking at him. :cry:

    Are we sure that’s not really a Vogon & he’s not really getting ready to read some poetry?!?! Got your towel? ;-)

    • Gigi says:

      Not Vogon poetry, it’s the third worst poetry in the Universe!!!

      • bob drummond says:

        I was under the impression that Vogon poetry was the worst poetry in the Universe !!!!

        • victoreia says:

          I’m afraid to ask what’s worse than Vogon poetry. And the thought of Vogon poetry being the universe’s third worst…. 8-O

            It was Paul and Nancy Millstone Jennings of Sussex. Luckily, it was destroyed when the earth was! ;-)

    That little girl looks like Boo from “Monsters, Inc.” finding a new friend through her closet door…

  16. Flufferbutt says:

    What?!? No “blorp” tag? But … but … the manatee! It is blorptastic! In fact, it may be the most blorptastic thing I have ever seen!

    Beautiful. The inocence of both, and the possible power of both human and animal. And yet – the peace. Too beautiful! Thanks for sharing this!

    “…and then the mermaids had a tea party but they ate too many seacakes and that’s how they became manatees.”

  19. Queen of Dork says:

    Wow. That’s a whole heaping helping of blorptitude.

  20. bob drummond says:

    Maybe a good nickname for this (guy ?) would be Mr. Blubber !!
