Default Dead Penguins


I never knew this about penguins

Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins
on the ice in Antarctica - where do they go? Well, wonder no more !

It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an extremely ordered and
complex life. The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as
maintaining a form of compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its life.

If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and social circle have
been known to dig holes in the ice, using their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep
enough for the dead bird to be rolled into and buried.

The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing:

"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
"Then they kick him in the ice hole."

Did you really believe that I know anything about penguins? It's so easy to fool OLD people..
I am sorry; the devil made me do it!!!
