-- Holden Caulfield,The Catcher in the Rye
To round up, this week's headlines ... at least the ones worth remembering anyway. Another week, another colorful dinosaur, ho hum. If you think you've had a slow week, take a look at these spectacular sloths. Then read all about one of the biggest amphibians in the world, the one called the hanzaki -- whatever it is, it's no crunchy frog ! If that has whetted your appetite, watch a frog jump in slow motion, find out how rotting fish can give off clues about fossilization, how to talk prairie-dog Latin, why hyena families are no laughing matter and how Pluto is turning red.
Meanwhile, our planet continues to cycle on according to the fixed law of gravity, and has gone almost full circle around the sun since this blog began blathering into the void. So, dear readers (if any there be), the time has come to let this ex-llama pine for the fjords. If you've tagged along all this while, remember to collect your free hug, and bookmark this collection of websites to help you stay abreast of the latest:
BBC Science & Nature
Quirks and Quarks
Not Exactly Rocket Science
Smithsonian Magazine
So long and thanks to all ye fish.
