Excess in life
just leads to strife
All I need is five
to stay alive
One with which to eat
Two for feet
One to comb my hair
whether or not it’s there
and the last to procreate
Who on earth needs eight?
Thanks Daru!

CURIOUS to the MAX
Stuff that makes us love, learn and laugh. ("It is good to laugh. Laughter is spiritual relaxation." – Baha'i World Faith)
CURIOUS to the MAX 
Not on the earth – in the sea!
One arm to wrestle sharks, one to spoon in clam chowder, two to strut upon stilts, one to scratch his back, one to rub his tummy, one to suck his thumb – and one to comb his hair!

Sharon B-P,
Classic! Now put it into rhyme please!
P.S. Suck his sucker not his thumb?

I ❤ octopi . Wait, what? Spell check doesn't care for octopi. One sec….[elevator music]…
"The standard plural in English of octopus is octopuses. However, the word octopus comes from Greek and the Greek plural form octopodes is still occasionally used. The plural form octopi, formed according to rules for some Latin plurals, is incorrect."
MORE true facts.
You're welcome.

Don’t forget the Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus– http://zapatopi.net/treeoctopus/. This one amazes my students yearly. Of course, I show it to them as part of a digital citizenship unit, on knowing how to judge the veracity of websites.
