[challenge entry] Ah, fuck it.
I can´t sleep, so have a repost for the compo:


edit: After looking at this for a while, I noticed two things: the explosion looked red in my old monitor; and I can vaguely see Chump´s silhouete behind 'AT&T'

From the Corporate Rebranding challenge. See all 800 entries (closed)

the worst.

# i'm not too sure what's going on here
but then, this is the normal state of being for me.

(you're a botanist?)

# Yes
I am a botanist.

By the way, I ask vegetarians to stop eating plants, as I need them to work.

# hee hee hee.
an arguement i like.

are you in research botany or what?
i on'y asks because one of my degrees is/will be zoology, and i have yet to find a practical, paying use for it. so i inquire of those in sort of similar fields.

# I do research, basically.
I´m producing the knowledge that I will eventually use on more practical projects in the future (like conservation, environmental education, aplication of endangered wild plants on medicine, landscaping, or any other use that would promote their preservation, etc.).

But I will fatally end up as a school teacher, if everything else fails.

# i just want to research animals.
maybe become one of a very few world experts on caecilians. that would be fun.

and then, ideally, i would draw them.

and make money.

i will probably end up teaching art and hating my students.

# Sicilians!
Their women have moustaches.

# you have no idea
how many times i have heard variations of that joke :)

the problem exacerbated by the fact that no one's ever heard of the critters.

# I would have expected that.
In fact, all I know about Caecilians is that they are... sticky. I don´t know if there are any native from here.

Edit: I just checked. Yes, there are a few species here. But I could have confused them with worms, if I ever saw one.

# should be.
they're native most everywhere, so far as i know.
so ubiquitous and so understudied!
they live everywhere yet people are unaware of them!

*stops self before getting really warmed up to the subject*

edit: yeah, but they are AMPHIBIANS!
and some are pretty damn big.

# I have seen earthworms
bigger than that.

I also saw a sketch of some skull. Do they have teeth?
(Monocromatico Lady Godiva's horse, Sat 12 Jun 2004, 6:26, archived)
# yeah.
most of them do, anyways. there might be a couple that have evolved out of them.

edit: the largest known species as of 2000 was 5 ft long. they may have discovered a bigger one by now, i en't sure.

# and that, if they ever see one,
they'll just end up baiting it on the end of a nice sharp hook and trying to catch a bass

# maybe the little ones :)
but i'd hate to see them try it with one of the bigger species.

# are they like snakes?
or earthworms?
(tookishlad, Sat 12 Jun 2004, 6:28, archived)
# they are like legless amphibians,
since that's what they are.

they're mostly burrowers, with some aquatic species. some are really brightly colored. they have ringlike folds in their skin, almost like segments but not reeeally. some give birth to live offspring. they have skeletons an' all that.

And let me repost my pic from last night, which displays for all my staggering psychic powers, since the challenge wasn't announced until several hours later....
