Aug 20, 2010: Kiwi
A Kiwi, yes, but not just a Kiwi... a Kiwi on a muthafuckin treadmill.

Only a New Zealander would test the plane-on-a-treadmill question using a flightless bird.

Of course there's no fly, Kiwis don't wear pants, silly.

I've never seen a Kiwi close up before (the bird, not someone from NZ).
I didn't expect all the cute little whiskers! The personality sounds pretty much like my ex-colleague though. |

The only Kiwi I ever knew wore pants, but she didn't have a fly either.

That kiwi looks sorta curmudgeonly.
the Curmungeonly Kiwi would be a good name for a children's book.

The reason for his curmudgeonly attitude is that he is sick of being compared to fuzzy fruit and fuzzier humans.

I love kiwis! My Nan went to NZ when i was little and she brought me back a bunch of kiwi related gifts; including a little silver kiwi pendant. I loved the shape of them. So cute!
She also had loads of photos of wildlife, including kiwis. Too cute for words.
