I was watching Blue Planet, one of those fancypants documentary mini-series on The Discovery Channel, last night. This was mostly about the poles, north and south. It covered all the usual stuff about polar bears and seals, the whales and penguins.
Penguins! I love penguins. 
Anyway, as I was watching these Emperor penguins feed their adorable fuzzy gray babies, I suddenly felt so grateful to be human. Have you ever seen how penguins (and most other birds) feed their young? The parents dive into the sea and eat as much fish as possible, then back on the ice, the cries of their adorable fuzzy gray babies trigger them to regurgitate the semi-digested fish into their mouth and throat. The baby sticks its adorable fuzzy gray head into the parent’s mouth and noshes on mom’s vomit.
Seriously. As a human, can you imagine if every time your baby cried you barfed? With the amount of crying kids in this world, the scene in Wal-Mart alone would be enough to keep me off food for weeks.

got one of your own? share it.
Boy-the people who get all worked up about breast-feeding in public-their heads would explode!
Then again-if you’re trying to diet-just hang around a mother and child. . . .
In my head, you just turned Walmart into that barfarama scene from “Stand By Me.” And I love you for it.
Dude, Emperor pengies are almost as tall as me! Okay, so that’s no major feat for a human, but for a penguin? I don’t know, I think that’s pretty cool.
Did you ever see this SNL Skit? HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
On the plus side, drinking straw sales would get a real boost.
*ba dum bum*
I agree with you. Yes we are lucky to be humans with complete body parts. I like penguins too but id rather but a stuff toy penguins at walmart instead.
