when there was the soccer worldcup in 2010, in some zoo or aquarium somewhere in germany they had an octopus, named paul, i think, who was said to be able - much like an oracle really - to predict the outcome of the games. and as far as i remember he was never once wrong for the entire duration of the championship! impressive. but, he has since passed on to the eternal inking grounds... which makes way for somebody equally foreboding, who can even not only do it with numbers, but with letters as well - COLLIN! effective immediately, collin eats more than mushed food, he eats ... PASTA! that's right, the italian inside him... :) and because there is no such thing as starting kids too early on the rascal, erm, school time thing, mama cooked alphabet pasta. of which the little scallawag seems to select only *certain* letters. we haven't quite seen through the pattern, yet, but are convinced beyond a doubt that it must be oraclic prophecies of some sort or another... we just can't make up our minds: is it the weather? and if so, where? stock market? if so, which one? end of the world? to what calenndar? well, collin, i think i see some detailing potential here... :)

Just a couple of years later, we have paul's successor - COLLIN!
And that definitely means something.We just have to wait and see.
*sweet*
