[Icon][Icon]Tux..?

• Post categories: Omni, FOSS, My Life

I went to the zoo yesterday.

They had penguins.

Yay penguins!

They had a sign up, warning people (don't ask me why) not to feed pencils to the penguins.

I'm not sure this is what Larry Ewing had in mind for his much-loved penguin picture back in '96, somehow...

The license is "Permission to use and/or modify this image is granted provided you acknowledge me lewing@isc.tamu.edu and The GIMP if someone asks."

Your guess is as good as mine! :o)

I said don't ask!

Okay.. you see in the big photo where it says "This image is upsetting"..?

It shows an autopsy of a penguin that died after swallowing a pencil. Not nice.
