"Gay penguins won't go straight

A German zoo's plans to tempt its gay penguins to go straight by importing
more females has been declared a failure.
The female penguins were flown in especially from Sweden in an effort to
encourage the Humboldt penguins at the Bremerhaven Zoo to reproduce.
But the six homosexual penguins showed no interest in their new female
companions and remained faithful to each other.
Zoo Director Heike Kueck said: "The relationships were apparently too
strong."
A keeper confirmed that the male couples had adopted rocks which they were
guarding like eggs in their caves.
The zoo has said that it will try again in Spring 2006, because the penguins
are an endangered species and need to be encouraged to breed."

What a bunch of plonkers!

Well, it's too bad they won't have their own, but obviously, they
should be allowed to adopt. :P  Male penguins are primary caretakers,
anyway, aren't they?

Trust me, that will only cause some of the penguins to take the lingerie
from the females and put it on themselves... :)

Why Victor, are you trying to tell ua about some .jpgs? :-D Actually, I've
got a pic from years ago, when Vernon & I were in the pantomime at Nathan's
then school - every year the parents put on a pantomime for the kids. The
year we did it, it was "Cinderella". I was Prince Charming and Vernon was an
Ugly Sister. Cross-dressers rule! ;-)

Cheers, helen s

Hehehe... nope, I only wear men's clothes. I was actually thinking that
the female penguins in sexy undies would cause some of the penguins to
run away and the other half to go try it on... :)
Though I once wore pantyhose and a miniskirt in highschool, we had a
celebration called "crazy week" and each day had a theme: hats,
children, cross-dressing... it was a lot of fun! I received many
compliments on how good my legs looked... (remember back then I was in
the swimming team)... :)

Ohmygawd, my boss is going to think I've been drinking or something - I'm
laughing *so hard*.  Oh, the mental picture - little penguins walking around
with teddies over their tuxedos!!!

Thanks Victor, I needed that laugh!

OK you guys are bound and determined to get me in trouble today.  I headed
out to our local Air Force Base Commissary to do a major grocery shopping.

On top of the refrigerator cases was a winter display of ice floes and
igloos and life sized naked penguins.

Cross dressing gay guy penguins in lingerie.  There has to be a Broadway
Show in there somewhere.

You're absolutely right-- OMG, I just got a flashback to the Broadway
production number in "Blazing Saddles" with all the chorus boys in
tuxedos.   "No, no, no, you sissy Marys!!!"
"Throw out your hands
Stick out your tush,
Hands on your hips,
Give 'em a push,
Don't be surprised you're doing the French Mistake." ;)

You find this more disturbing than life sized clothed penguins?  *confused*

Duh!

Duh again!

There is a bald eagle family near Austin, in Blanco County that is most
unusual. There are 3 eagles who come every year and nest together to
raise their young. I'm not sure the gender of the adults has been
determined, but that is a most interesting alternative natural family. :)
