Paul the Octopus


Would you like to have an octopus as a pet? Most of us will say no as it’s not common for a pet owner to have one (correct me if I’m wrong). But what if you have one and you’re a football fan (anong konek??). Meet Paul the Octopus, a common octopus in Germany where it had predicted correctly Germany’s 7 matches and the finals.  

But since its death last 3 months ago, a 2-meter (6-foot) tall plastic replica of Paul clutching a ball in his eight arms was unveiled in Sea Life aquarium in Oberhausen yesterday.

"We acted upon the wishes of fans and created a place of remembrance," Munzig told The Associated Press.

How cool is that?? (Dito sikat yan na calamares sa kalye) I wish there’s another pet psychic like that who can guess the correct SUPER LOTTO number combinations. Maybe a street cat or dog or something rare, how ‘bout a mouse or a lizard (or preferably a house rat, para may pakinabang naman sa bahay ^_^).
