Saving the world, one octopus at a time.



We came upon this octopus last summer on the beach in Rocky Point, Mexico. My favorite line is Col yelling "Take it out as far as you can and then chuck it!"

You'll notice that immediately after we saved its life, it inked us.

I watched the video before I read the excerpt, and thought, wow, these people sound an awful lot like Colman and Aubrey.

I did the same thing Courtney, man that sounds alot like Colman. I remeber catching a much smaller octapus when I was 11 and thinking, these are alot uglier than I thougt. They always look so cute and round headed in cartoons.

Excuse me, I think I'm going to throw up. Those things are nasty.

The only thing I found in Mexico was, what I thought was, a piece of blue bubble gum. Nope. It was a jellyfish. And it didn't like me one bit.

Nobody like to be poked Jordan. Even blue BubbleYum jellyfish! That was pretty sick. With all of the yuchy things in there, why does anyone swim in the ocean?!

I think I remember Judson finding something gross in the water once...not in the ocean, but in the kiddie pool of the six flags water park in Dallas, Tx.

Oh that it had been an octopus or piece of bubble gum.

Well, if someone took you out to the ocean and chucked you as far as they could, you would probably "ink" as well. Poor thing, you probably scared the ink out him.
