Henry the Octopus/Hexapus): English Marine Experts discovered an octopus with six legs. *Octopodes (*Octopodes is the plural of octopus.) usually have eight legs which are not really legs. And they aren’t arms either. They are tentacles. And you have to be careful of how you spell and pronounce tentacles because people can think you are talking about something else which can be very confusing.
So they named the octopus with six tentacles a “hexapus”. They named him 'Henry' because it alliterated well with 'hexapus.' The supervisor who named him Henry is named Carey Duckhouse.
Duckhouse, Schmuckhouse, so what? What is important is that you got a new cousin. His name is Levi and Uncle Mike and Dave are the Daddies. More to come ....
'Henry' was discovered in a local zoo along with seven other Octopodes. No one noticed his missing legs until he attached himself to the inside of his glass tank.

And Grandpa Joel did an important scientific experiment in March. I dropped a cell phone in the toilet to see if it would work or float. It didn’t work or float. Drying it with a towel or slamming it against the wall didn’t make it work either. My friend Don suggested putting it in the microwave oven but Ralph said it would melt and it would be better to put it in the toaster oven on “light” for 2 minutes. It worked!
Eliot Spitzer quit as Governor of New York because of a peccadillo. (Peccadillo (plural either peccadillos or peccadilloes), from the Latin word for sin, is commonly used for a petty misdeed and, by extension, for an antic.) Anyway, he got caught. He was known as #9 when he was peccadilloing. So they are selling sweat shirts which will help the economy.Peccadillos, armadillos and avocados are all different things.
