SQUIDCAM II

[chrono_war01]

The only other time Steve's lips are sealed was when he was doing a ND sing along in the middle of school.

(NO! I'm joking! Don't kill me!)

Hmmmmmm. Didn't realise we were in darkness there for a while.

Check the big squido out now:
http://www.thesciencesite.info/squidcam.shtml
It's (sex indet) 2 months old today (and the 4 smaller ones are over 1 month). It's growing rather fast now. Spent the afternoon in there taking b'day shots; got some sensational ones too (with a super-duper high-quality camera)

 

[chrono_war01]

Hm..is it just me, or is Squidcam down for the week?

 

[Feelers]

Yeah I noticed that too, it says its "loading the java applet" and doesnt seem to go anywhere.

Just now when it says "now with extra active squid"

 

[tonmo]

ditto!

 

[chrono_war01]

when I get bored, I go and make that squid on the squidcam button follow the mouse around.

 

[cuttlegirl]

Yeah, its up! I took this picture tonight. I got to watch this little guy/girl and the little shrimp swim past. He/she must not have been hungry because I saw about 15 shrimp swim right past.

Something 'really exciting' might happen in this tank next week, but only if everyone is really, really, really good - and that includes everyone around the world, across the universe, and in perpetuity even! Wouldn't that be nice!

Hmmmmm. That's a little unrealistic. New deal. If you read this, look left, hold your tongue to the right, tap your heels two times, think a good thought .... and just maybe 'presto' ... something interesting will happen to squiddy in squidcam .... Soon there may be spontaneous generation; many squiddies that have found themselves surplus to requirement. What am I talking about? Who knows; I don't; perhaps I've lost the plot.

Perhaps a turtle will appear, or even a shark; perhaps a submersible, or a sunken ship. Perhaps nothing will happen .... and then .... perhaps not.

Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps ......

...... perhaps not .......

errrr...

I think Dr Steve has been overcome by 'fumes'.

 

[chrono_war01]

fumes from ND CDs burning in the corner...

 

[cttlfish]

so this is what being a research scientist does to you...

I think all that formalin he's absorbed has finally circulated up to his brain. A sad, sad moment for teuthiology.

Cheers!

It's next week...

 

[cttlfish]

I don't see any more squid yet......

although the one already there has grown impressivly.

 

[cuttlegirl]

We (everyone at TONMO, at least), have been good all week... Is there something new in the tank? I can't really tell...
