look into those eyes
don't you see a sapient being there
what wisdom might they have to impart to us?
and what might we have missed by putting them on our dinner plate?

I've heard that.
But it does not change how good they taste. Besides, they obviously are not cleaver enough to not get aught and turned into food.
I know I wrote a post some time ago talking about how if animals can catch humans as a food source, then they should have every right to eat us. I do not use any kind of double standards there. If the octopi are unable to avoid being captured and turned into food stuff, then they are just out of luck I guess.

yes i remember
boiled baby squid at an asian restaurant on South Grand
whole thing
playing with the tentacles and such
only thing
could be that octopii are smarter than we are
if so, they are another form of intelligent life on earth
so this could cause a moral problem.
and if they do begin to develop technology and weapons -- we'd better look out.
