Ron gets a squishy no-prize for bringing us this story of a rather unique sort of mothering experience:

It was a May-December romance that really had legs: Young Aurora, a female giant octopus and her aging cephalopod suitor J-1 were thrown together for a blind date seven months ago by aquarists who hoped the two would mate.

I've always found it really weird that such big critters live for such a short time (5-7 years, tops).
