    Don't know if anyone is interested or not, but someone posted on FB a video of a colossal squid being dissected. It's three hours long, and Faythe has been watching it in pieces. She wants to study Marine Biology, and would actually like to specialize in the colossal squid (!!!), so when I showed this to her, she was quite fascinated. The entire video is about three hours long, and she's been watching the whole thing (though not all at once!). She was actually explaining to me about its "beak", and the esophagus and how it had teeth-like things on its tongue. Don't know if any of you have kids into that sort of thing, but if you do, here's the link:
