For once I don’t have any new gerbil photos to share this Sunday, so all I can say is that I adore that Mason jar diving bell.

On Narbonic‘s Sunday pages,
There’s a gerbil we all know!
He’s a her-ro for the ages!
He’s so speedy! Watch him go!
And he travels ‘cross the world,
Has adventures, near and far!
See him now, beneath the waves,
In his diving … Mason jar!
Speedy’s diving within a Mason jar!
In a Mason jar!
In a Mason jar!
Speedy’s diving within a Mason jar!
He’s a superstar
In a Mason jar!
Since this is a mad-science loving community, I thought you might be interested to know that The Oatmeal is promoting a web-funding campaign to buy Nicola Tesla’s old laboratories and convert them into the nation’s first Tesla museum.

I donated this morning in the name of Helen Narbon.
Speedy looks impressed. The lobster looks “meh.” The octopus looks “Hey, you surface-breathers, get off my sea-bed!”
