This Is One Phenomenal Pet Penguin (Video)

I have always had a fondness for penguins.  It's by far my favorite exhibit at Sea World.  I could watch them dive, torpedo through water, and waddle on the ice all day long.  Perhaps some of my affinity goes back to the fact that I met Steve while working at Penguin's Frozen Yogurt back in the late 1980s, when he was a manager and I picked up the gig while home on summer break after my first year away at college (we weren't vegans yet, so yes, we did eat the stuff). That snazzy little treat shop was decorated with slick penguins galore and since my memories from that time are so fond, I trust that the penguin imagery snuck into my psyche somehow. 

Well, my penguin appreciation grew even greater after I found this video about LaLa, a penguin who lives in Japan as a pet.  You won't believe what he can do.  Pretty cool (no pun intended)!
