But everyone keeps telling me, "Arlo, Sea-Monkeys® are nothing more than brine shrimp. Not so. Quoth the Sea-Monkey® manual, page 3:

"Although Sea-Monkeys® are a species of brine shrimp, they are unique. We not only unlocked the most elusive secrets of their life-cycle, we created new formulas to keep them alive under conditions found in the average home -- an accomplishment never before achieved! Finally, after years of crossbreeding, we developed a hybrid SUPER Sea-Monkey®! These animals are raised on our own aquaculture farm, and their unique eggs are now STANDARD in every Sea-Monkey® kit. Truly, the world's only FULLY MAN-MADE PETS, these amazing new hybrids grow larger and live incredibly longer than any 'natural' variety of brine shrimp."

Dammit, y'all, Sea-Monkeys® are patented, and they are living, breathing creatures, and they can even play games. So you and your Aibo can kiss my ass.

A search on Google reveals no live Sea-Monkey® webcams. I'm going to fix that. Tune in next week....
