Ermm? Hello?


So, I was reading this article http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/6166828.stm about why dancing penguins beat Bond at the US box office.  Now, I know I'm not a parent & therefore can never understand what it's like to one, but:


"The male spends 115 days without eating, with the egg on his feet, in permanent darkness in the least hospitable place on the planet. His partner walks 200km to the sea to feed. The extreme effort chimes if you are a parent."


I'm sorry?  It what possible way does that relate to humans?  I mean frankly, compared to that, as a species we've got it easy!  Are there going to be all these dads out there, nodding sagely & agreeing that what they do is as tough as spending 4 months stood in the dark, in sub zero temperatures, with no food, or TV, or beer, or...

Er.  Yes.


Obviously, in an attempt to regain some of the popularity he lost to the penguins, Bond does, in fact spend a good potion of his movie dressed as a penguin!  Playing cards.

I'm trying to think of some witty witicism...but I can't.   In fact I have absolutely nothing to add to this topic so why am I bothering?
