CNN Coincidence? I think NOT!

Post by botdrnk »

Hilarious! I was reading an article on cnn.com today and came across the following story about a manatee. Can you guess what the manatee's name is? Yep...with TWO T's!

There was a story in Discover Magazine last month or so about Manatees and Buffett the manatee was mentioned. I had a giggle over that one.

You know what they say about Manatees "His body's quite flexible...."
Wrinkles only go where the smiles have been.

Do me a favor: Next time you want to wail about an avtar, PM the person who has so deeply offended you. Or just kiss my avtar.

this even made it onto fark.com, so I guess it must really be news :) And they even managed to spell his name right :roll:
