For all the friends that knew about the breathing mechanism in Dolphins, do you know about the

"Ondine's curse". It could be also called the dolphin human

Yup - knew that, too! (Of course, I teach medical school, so...) 

Did you know that elephant seals only breath once every 20 minutes while on land, and can go 2 hours between breaths while at sea?

We are looking at these guys to figure out a mechanism to rescue/protect the brain after stroke.

Did you find anything? How their brain gets the Oxygen while not breathing? Myoglobin storage?

Actually it may sound odd but their high levels of blood carbon monoxide is neuro protective.

So, before you keep reading -- It is all the feed store's fault. They had a buy six get two free deal, and it wasn't like I was about to turn that kind of bargain

This is similar to why I now have ducks. Seven ducks $7.00. $1ea + tax. I plead "Nolo contendre".

Not until you pointed it out.

seriously!

you earned that

Well, I've been told that just because I don't see it, doesn't mean it isn't there....

I'm thinking I could let my daughter handle the super soaker while I did chicken chores, but she would probably hit me with the super soaker and miss the rooster. You could ask Abi about how bad I screamed when my daughter 'accidentally' turned the hose on me a few weeks ago. @MotorcycleChick
