Level_Head,
Viewing some of the videos of octos pool hopping, I just don't see boneless sea animals coming to land, especially with boneless arms and/or tentacles. The gravity just does not permit this to be logical IMO.

This is so full of WIN that it really *did* win.... the Grand Prize in the LibraryThing 2012 Edible Books Contest, that is. Cephalicious!

Awesome art by Nataly (Kukula) Abramovitch, for all you Clockwork Punk types (yes, I know you're out there somewhere ):

There's an alien cephalopod in "Prometheus." Like Promachoteuthis, only much, much bigger. Silly movie, I'm sad to say. Long live "Alien."

Octopus reference during Braves Baseball

Spoken tonight by Braves broadcaster, Don Sutton,

I spotted this benevolent squid on Cape Cod a few weeks ago. He's right, of course.

My unofficial niece sent me a link to this one the other day Way outside my budget but very nice in that it looks anatomically viable vs many that you see that do weird things with he siphon or lack the proper number of arms.
