A Few More Jellyfish Tidbits For You

It looks as if the havoc wreaked by our most diaphanous and pulsating operatives has finally made Smithsonian! It was in an article in the July/August 2010 issue ("The New King Of The Sea," Abigail Tucker, pgs. 26-35) that I found the items I mentioned in the previous entry, A NOTICE TO ALL NAKED APES that Jellyfish were attacking the infrastructure in Manila and bumming out underwater diamond miners. There were more than a few other delights in there, like the Japanese fishing vessel that capsized and sank while attempting to haul aboard a catch of itty-bitty Nomura's Jellyfish. That is just one of the highlights. SEEK IT OUT AND READ IT.

CLICK HERE to behold the Jellyfish selections from a delightful blog called Pink Tentacle! Click on the tentacle at the top left of the page to see EVERYTHING THEY HAVE TO OFFER. There are a few nice shots of the dreaded Nomuras in that selection.

The Jellyfish recruiting techniques under development in Japan are simply amazing! Has anyone on this continent tried the Jellyfish caramels described at Pink Tentacle? Or the Jellyfish cookies?

I Can't Take Credit For This One!

Certain of my compatriots are trying to give li'l ol' ME the credit for what's being called a "silent invasion of immortal Jellyfish." I blush prettily at the compliment but must insist I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS ONE. This is actually an INDEPENDENT PROJECT headed by the Jelly Queen herself, who chooses not to be named on a public website.

I have to say this is a PRETTY SLICK MOVE. I wish I HAD been the one to come up with the idea of a Jellyfish -- or anything-fish! -- that is not only IMMUNE TO SENSESCENCE, but capable of BECOMING YOUNG AGAIN AT WILL.

HAIL, QUEEN OF THE JELLIES!
