Natalie Ultimate Fish Guru Apolay Wayyioy Posts: 4499 Kudos: 3730 Votes: 348 Registered: 01-Feb-2003	I imagine an octopus might have a fair bit of fun with a wad of Play-Doh - if it wasn't so water-soluble and such. James can try baby toys... Seeing as how a two-year-old baby is probably only slightly less intelligent than an octupus, it might keep the cephalopod entertained for a while. Possibly something like this: I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.
