Interesting, no? There are actually a few fish that can do it. I believe that African lungfish (which you can order shipped in a cardboard box, cocooned in a dry mud shell) can walk on land and actually breathe air; they're kept as pets in the States. Didn't Muddy the Mudskipper walk on land in Ren and Stimpy? And I believe that certain gobies can walk and crawl over obstacles; I remember reading about a goby native to Hawaii that climbs up sheer waterfalls by forming a suction cup with its pectoral fins. Strange and cool. Back when I was a kid in the seventies and eighties, textbooks always mentioned the coelacanth, a deep-sea fish with fleshy pectoral fins resembling legs. It'd been thought extinct, but then one was caught by a fisherman. Scientists eagerly proclaimed it the missing link between fish and amphibians even though it was strictly a deep-water fish. Nowadays the prevailing wisdom is that the coelacanth never uses its "legs" to walk over anything, even in the depths; they're strictly for navigation. - Jeff

No, only the folk in Aberdeen got that section, the rest of Scotland learned something else. Jeremy Kimball wrote: (I have a catapult. Give me all the money, or I will fling an enormous rock at your head) I refer you to a scene in Braveheart, where William and Hamish have a wee rock throwing tournament, in order to suggest that an enourmous rock may be ineffective.

Jeremy Kimball wrote: Hamish choked If by that you mean that he lost then then that's my point. He threw the big boulder and missed William, while William took the stone and hit Hamish squarely on the forehead.
