There's nothing like throwing a puppy at a couple of bikers when you're feeling depressed.

Octopuses are among the most intelligent of invertebrates. They are capable of complex thought processes, have short and long-term memories, use tools, learn through observation, have different personalities and are particularly sensitive to pain," the organisation said.


I'm a fuckin idiot and I know that "octopuses" is not a fucking word. This guy works for fucking PETA?

Anyway, setting him free is a silly idea. What a waste of his psychic abilities.

Words fail me, it's got to be very close to the un-coolest job in the World, they should make 'em drive around in something that looks like the creepy-coupe from Wacky Races... " I'm a Policeman, Vulture-Division, fancy a beer?"

Funny, I'd never heard about this before, read about it here, then switch on the TV, and what's on? A report about Sherlock the vulture...
