You may have
noticed that my blog has been fairly dormant for quite some time. Perhaps you assumed that I had given up on
blogging or that some grudge-holding killer whale had murdered me in my sleep,
but no… I’m still here. I’ve actually
been working on something that ended up taking a lot more time than you’d think
it would: evolution.
It all began with a simple question: What would happen if a bear was bred with a
shark? Great white bear? Grizzly shark? In a perfect world, one of those would certainly
be the result, but trying to get a bear and a shark to breed posed a set of
problems I wasn’t prepared to deal with and led to the deaths of at least seven
unpaid, entry-level interns.
I recently came to the life-altering realization that breeding
two animals together causes you to effectively forfeit half of each animal. How do you know which elements of which
animal your final product will exhibit? I could end up with a grizzly shark that only has a single row of flesh-tearing
teeth or a great white bear without its signature, flesh-tearing claws? Why lose elements of each animal when you could
just tape the two of them together and keep all parts of both? It's simple, common sense! And as long as we’re taping animals together,
why stop at just a bear and a shark?
This new, advanced creature I’m developing is not
completely free of problems. For
instance, how does it get around? Does
it swim? Does it fly? If it’s going to fly, I’m going to need to
tape a penguin to it… and also tape the penguin to some kind of flying bird. This creature is going to happen, though, and
when it does, you’ll remember that you heard about it here first! And YOU can be a part of it! I’m currently hiring interns… no experience
or expectations of payment necessary.
