Oh Mournful day
Kalu Kalay,
For Paul the octopus has gone away.

No more shall we know afore
which team we should be rooting for
For Paul has gone to that distant shore.

Ouch, for shame your disrespect of the dead. I bet if they fed him two bowls of food, one saying I will die today and the other saying I will live today, he would have always eaten from the I will live bowl until the day that he died.


Wir sind Paul !

Off-topic: In Lynn Flewelling's 'Nightrunner' series, the Aurenfaie culture's highest punishment is twai sholo, or "two bowls". You're put in prison, and every day you are given two bowls of food - one plain, one poisoned. If you choose wisely, and are very very very lucky, you might live for a long time by choosing the correct bowl to eat from. If you survive the twai sholo for a year, you are set free, because obviously the gods never intended for you to die.

Calamari is squid. Scungili is octopus.

PAUL LIVES!

Actually, he may have. His Keeperes did expected it, Paul was quite old for a octopus.

The Aquarium had him cremated and now thinks about a statue (and quietly has put a new octopus into the tank - named Paul)

I will always remember Paul for being the first cephalopod to sucessfully troll Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

May he have Lulz Eternal.
