Those tornados: that’s almost half the country in ruin!

They are already dead. They get bought from the fish case at the local market

It used to symbolize the number of games needed to win in order to get the Stanley Cup. Now they would have to chuck two of them…

…and they are typically not thrown at the BEGINNING of games, but rather during a stoppage near the end of the game (when the Red Wings are in the lead).

I always thought the plural was octopi, not octopuses.

Octopus was the question on yesterday’s Jeopardy.

Why are the Red Wings fans wasting such good food?

The F5 that tore up Tuscaloosa very nearly killed members of my family in the Pleasant Grove/Fairfield/Hueytown area and destroyed a house my grandfather built during the great depression. Thankfully, none of my family was hurt

" ….. were the octopuses injured, or did they even survive…To me that’s just sick…"~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I agree with you — It is just totally sick. Every time I think there’s a glimmer of hope that someday we may turn into an intelligent species. something like this comes along to dash my hopes.

Most years, Texas is the state with the most tornadoes. But, in 2010, it was Minnesota.

Kudos to Harriette.

Yeah, they were killed before the game, whew! :-)

The octpus are purchased from a fish market as food. The origional occurance 60 years ago was done by two brothers who owned a fish market. At that time it took 8 wins to win the Stanley Cup.

She averaged around 3.5 mph (with her left “blinker light” on all the while.)

You rarely see octopodes and cactodes in the same place.

Tammi is correct the plural of octopus ic “octopi”-“Believe It or Not”.

Those are Not Octopi.They are OctoPucks.
