That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

You wouldn't happen to know the species, would you? I need to get the mental image right. This is going to occupy the majority of my afternoon, and I'd hate to get it wrong.

Shrift, those glasses really look hot on you. Not that I get a vote, but I really approve of your choice.

According to the zoo's web site, they have Humboldt penguins. I didn't see any other species listed, so I guess that must be it.

OK, that kid? Has the best story ever. I hope he grows up to be a zoologist and care for penguins legitmately. Or be a vet. My cousin and her husband are vets up at an Air Force base in Washington state and he (working for the AF) gets quite a few exotics. Probably no penguins, though. They are both glad of their surgical intern-trips to China. They got to deal with a lot of exotics. Including pandas!

I hate to burst y'alls penguin stealing bubble, but that story is an urban legend. I would have believed it myself, if I hadn't heard it before:

Ah, excellent. Thanks.
