Adeste Fid-eel-es

Roll over, solar: some awesome guy in Japan hooked up an aquarium’s electric eel to its Christmas display.

“If we could gather all electric eels from all around the world, we would be able to light up an unimaginably giant Christmas tree,” Minawa told Reuters Television.

Thanks to Minawa, one day I’ll be charging my ceel phone with my slippery friend, “Sparky”- if he can be spared from his work on the unimaginably giant tree.

    *groan*

    I wonder if you could _hook_ a bedside lamprey up to it, as well? Hopefully the _net_ gain will be greater than a fishin’ reactor, or else we’re sunk.

    Season’s wriggles.

    I try and resist, but this makes me laugh a little harder every time I read it, Kes.
