Cacti read blogs too

So there I was, surfing some blogs, when I came across an interesting article on Southern Fried Science.  It gives ten reasons why dolphins (marine mammals in general, actually) are NOT as cute and innocent as people like to believe.  I especially enjoyed reason number 5.

My inaugural post

Hello, my name is Jabby. I am a cactus. Like Patrick, I am very interested in science.

To make up for the fact that I was left in Eastlake AGAIN, Pat decided that I needed a hobby to keep me busy and invited me to post to this sweet blog.

Will I update every day? Of course not, I am a cactus for cryin' out loud!


Did you know that the tallest species of cactus in the world is the Pachycereus pringlei?
Well, you do now.
The tallest one ever recorded was 19.2 meters tall.
