New "Hairy Lobster" Crustacean Discovered and Classified

AviLazar writes "American-led divers discovered a new type of Crustacean, that resembles a lobster but has it's claws covered in 'sinuous, hair-like strands'. This species is so different, from other Crustacean's that it was classified with a new Family name: Kiwaida. Unfortunately for the Kiwaida, the AP is already using this blind creature and a salad plate in the same sentence."

  1. But it wasnt a rock- by JANYAtty. · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    It was a rock, lobster! From the B-52's:
    His ear lobe fell in the deep
    Someone reached in and grabbed it
    It was a rock lobster
    We were at the beach
    Everybody had matching towels
    Somebody went under a dock
    And there they saw a rock
    It wasn't a rock
    It was a rock lobster
    Motion in the ocean
    His air hose broke
    Lots of trouble
    Lots of bubble
    He was in a jam
    S'in a giant clam
    Down, down
    Underneath the waves
    Mermaids wavin'
    Wavin' to mermen
    Wavin' sea fans
    Sea horses sailin'
    Dolphins wailin'
    Red snappers snappin'
    Clam shells clappin'
    Muscles flexin'
    Flippers flippin'
    Down, down
    Let's rock!
    Boy's in bikinis
    Girls in surfboards
    Everybody's rockin'
    Everybody's fruggin'
    Twistin' 'round the fire
    Havin' fun
    Bakin' potatoes
    Bakin' in the sun
    Put on your noseguard
    Put on the lifeguard
    Pass the tanning butter
    Here comes a stingray
    There goes a manta-ray
    In walked a jelly fish
    There goes a dogfish
    Chased by a catfish
    In flew a sea robin
    Watch out for that piranha
    There goes a narwhale
    HERE COMES A BIKINI WHALE!

    Hey Jorn, did you hear Chris McKinstry killed himself in January?
    No loss, really, just wondering if you heard.

    Maybe I am just getting used to this "new world" we live in, but I read that as if the US government classified this as some sort of state secret. Who knows, this new hairy lobster might be key to winning the war on terrorism, or know the location of a secret underwater Iraqi WMD project.

    MOD PARENT UP.

    People, please... We are supposed to represent a sector of society that esteems knowledge. How can we be taken seriously if we don't each at least master one language?

    When programming, a single error can cripple the entire program. Why is it that many of us can manage to use C++ to a perfect degree, but can't use English at the 5th grade level?
