The Far Side--The Reality Show

Via Roberto, I find that Gary Larson is alive and well and writing for CNN.com:
Twenty-one penguins were rescued on a hot east Texas highway Tuesday after a truck carrying the wildlife to a temporary home south of Houston overturned, said a state trooper. Four penguins and some exotic fish were killed in the accident...
...including the most unlikely line to appear in a news story:
The truck, also carrying an octopus that was uninjured, was bound for Moody Gardens, a tourist destination in Galveston...
Whew! Thank heavens the octopus was OK. I expect Moody Gardens is going to be decidedly moodier for a time.
