El Pulpo Adivino


In Spain people are not just giddy from their recent win in the world cup championships, they have completely left the planet. I'm pretty certain that absolutely nobody over here is thinking straight at the moment. My grammar teacher showed up to class in a skanky red dress today, people have been swimming in fountains with policemen, and all of Spain is clamoring to have their team's mascot be an octopus named Paul. That's Paul up there sitting on top of the Spanish flag, a nation he has faithfully been predicting would win every one of their games. Obviously he is a big fan, and therefore worthy of being the mascot of Spain! If you have any doubts, view this video featuring his victorious predictions and theme song and you will be doubtful no more!

I was just reading about the death threats that poor Paul has been getting! (As he is a German octopus) Poor thing.

My dad just told me last night that Spain won and I was wondering if you had experienced any madness or hysteria... and I guess you have!

I love octopusses, I hope no harm comes to Paul.
