Morning Squidussion

There's a special chipper energy floating around the Shacknews virtual office this morning, the kind of energy that can only be channelled through cephalopods.

Squid and octopodes are of course the stars of the class, and even cuttlefish get a little screen time, but the poor nautilus is all too often forgotten. Few believe she was in that graduating class all those millions of years ago as her classmates have changed so much since then, but she was there alright.

Vantage's Suggested Music of the Day

Mons - The Unnamed Melody

http://www.monstunes.com/?p=286
listen and participate in the contest here!

This is a new song I whipped up a week or two ago. I posted it in the middle of the night at one point and got a lot of great feedback, but I still don't have a name for it! So, I've posted some CONTEST DETAILS on my site in the hopes that you guys can help me come up with the name! If someone is inspired and comes up with a name/explanation I like, I'll write them their own theme song/fanfare. Everyone should have their own theme song. :D

Anyways, check it out and let me know what you think!
