Geek Habitat

I already have three cats, so you’d think the notion of additional pets would be a little, well, alarming. I haven’t gone completely off the deep end, however. The new pets I’m expecting are actually Sea Monkeys, which I’m surprised I never had as a child. I went through numerous caterpillar/butterfly houses, ant farms and even a couple fish tanks (guppies, zebra danios and various tetras, plus an algae-eater or two). But somehow, the Sea Monkey craze passed me by. Well, dammit, I’m an adult now and I’ve got to experience it!

Amazon gift certificates are dangerous things — there’s no telling what you’ll find there — like my Sea-Monkeys Explor-A-Sub — to spend “free” money on! Now, if only they really sold these Nano iPods! (via Joy of Tech)

Since I’m on a pets theme this entry, here’s a cute website I found this morning while reading up on Sea-Monkeys: Guinness the Dog’s website features a videos and a webcam. He’s in Australia, so you’ll have to tune in at night to see Guiness do much besides get his puppy rest.
