RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil – Hundreds of penguins swept from the icy shores of Antarctica and Patagonia are washing up dead on Rio de Janeiro’s tropical beaches.
More than 400 penguins, most of them young, have been found dead on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro state over the past two months, according to Eduardo Pimenta, superintendent for the state coastal protection and environment agency in the resort city of Cabo Frio.

I have to say that I am disturbed by this. You’re down in Rio at the beach watching the beautiful women in barely there swim suits walk on the beach and what should destroy your day… dead penguins. It’s sad as my favorite animal at the zoo besides monkeys are penguins. Have always loved them. What is wrong with the world, freaking penguins are drowning? This should be an indicator to people that global warming just might exist. Either that or the penguins are trying a sea assault on Brazil.
Alright, I need something more lighthearted now..
Well, weekend is almost over. Generation Kill is on tonight, so that’s something to look forward to.
