Losty: OMG. I can’t believe
Losty: OMG. I can’t believe I haven’t posted this in the past. I’ve known about McCavity for ages. I LOVE THAT STORY!
I didn’t know about the dogs, though. That’s great! But wait, the Jubilee Line is in London, but it says Moscow in the story. *is confused* I guess it’s just a Britpun.
Animals are amazing sometimes. "Nature" last Sun. was about monkeys & it was wonderful. I love monkeys. There was one species with ears that look like leaves. They look like little elves. And they are so clever, so smart with their tool use & such. Each species has a different "word" for various predators, but they can all understand each other's "words" - even the warnings that come from elephants & other animal families. Anyone who likes monkeys can go to http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/clever-monkeys/introduction/3946/
for more info, but according to the comments for Feb 2011, it is not available anywhere on line. It will repeat (here anyway) on Sat afternoon & Sun morning. It was fascinating.

Actually, come to think of
Actually, come to think of it, you may have posted about Macavity in the past, but I'm not sure.
And yeah, I think it's just a pun, lol.
Monkeys and other primates are just so intelligent, it's kind of mind-boggling. That's why whenever I see them in zoos, it kind of makes me feel a little weird because they can look and act so human, y'know?

Too bad you can’t get that program on line – you might enjoy it.

Eh, probably not, actually -
Eh, probably not, actually - I'm not actually into nature shows unless there are wolves or big cats in them, haha, so it's okay XD
And yeah, that might've been it.

Oh, I was about to tell you
Oh, I was about to tell you what's on NOVA: Science Now tomorrow (PBS - 7pm Central)- It's about how smart animals are (dolphins, dogs, etc). I'm interested, but the real reason I watch NOVA:Science Now is the host - Neal deGrasse Tyson ♥
He's the director of New York City's Hayden Planetarium & I think he is amazing.
Well, someone else might want to watch it.

He's an astrophysicist, I
He's an astrophysicist, I think & that makes him even more cool & attractive. He's also funny, too.
