Not From a Sea. Not Monkeys. Discuss.
Another date that I've missed , International Sea-Monkey Day was yesterday! "Sea-Monkeys are hybrid brine shrimp, and the brainchild of the mail-order entrepreneur Harold von Braunhut in 1957. When their crystallized eggs are submerged in water, minuscule crustaceans emerge; they can grow up to 2 inches long. To the disappointment of countless children over the years, they look nothing like the naked humanoids once displayed in the product's kitschy comic-book advertisements." Bummer.
