They've found everything in our little river....
Pirhanas, alligators, crocs, former presidents, and now an octopus.

ok, i know this has got to be a troll but i'm biting. you don't want an octopus to put in your backyard pool. first, octopi are marine animals and i'm guessing your pool is freshwater. next, octopi are supreme escape artists and though he may start out in your pool, he will be out of your pool in less than a day .. and then dead on your lawn. and lastly, you will have no way to feed this marine animal ... they only eat live seafoods and are extremely picky at that.
liv2padl, he is joking about the octopus. I think he started the thread to see if it would get locked. Someone posted asking where to get pirahna and the thread was promptly locked.
I knew immediately what this post was about!!! lol Thats a really big Octopus for someone to have as a pet. Shame it died.
