Click the links for lots of Ozzy, Manson, and NIN.
And if anyone knows anything new in metal I can find on the web, please drop a link into my blog. I’ve got time to listen to new stuff for the next week. I can’t find new metal on my local radio stations anymore and I don’t know where to go on the web.
Help if you can.

It is OK for you to feel envy. I have actually seen a live vampire squid. It was somewhat the worse for having been captured in a deep sea trawl. I could have touched it, but didn’t. Talk about opportunity missed!

I love the way that those dark spots up near the fins are bioluminescent spots; fake eyes! Of course, this implies that there’s something down there that’s so balls-out hard that it caused Vampyroteuthis to have to evolve defense mechanisms…… that’s not a creature I want to meet when out swimming

What I’ve never known about before are the modified arms that act as retractable “feelers”–in this photo one is visible as the string-like item emerging from the crotch of the two large arms above the eye. Curiouser and curiouser!

you might try Triple J(aussie radio station that streams over the web as well as brover the air all over Australia) and “Full Metal Racket” its a show dedicated to Metal, they have pod casts and often free mp3 downloads so why not go here and have a listen http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/racket/

If you follow the link to TOLweb you will read, under the heading Characteristics,
“3. Funnel
a. Funnel valve absent.”
For an octopodiform, this sounds like a drag.

shit…it’s Friday?
Damn! I better get my Halloween shopping started!
Anyone know if any online stores sell human livers?
Is it Friday?!
I’ve been snowed in so long I don’t even remember what year this is. Waah!
Oh good, we’re getting an early start.
Vampire squid are amazing. They can turn themselves inside out to reveal rows of spikes on the outside.
Try Hastur’s House of Tasty Treats.

This one is my favorite. Whenever we get to another planet, their life-forms will seem mild by comparison.
Is that its real scientific name? Vampyro…? Why not Vampiro? Me smells a rat here PZ!
I now have Cuttlefish’s book; Santa Claus brought it for me.
Another happy cephalopod sings this morning.
I am so disappointed by them being small enough to carry around in one’s hands. I want big, nasty, human-eating, flesh-rending vampire squids!
Vampyroteuthis is correct. No rat.
Vampyroteuthis Infernalis
Literally, Vampire Squid from Hell.
That’s so effing metal.

By the way, heavy metal was my Christmas gift to the world this year:
