Turtles are awesome, aren’t they? This turtle is especially awesome because he’s got himself some sweet watermelon. And for all the criticism turtles get for being slow, this little guy is chowing down at a pretty good pace. Dang it, now I want a turtle so I can feed it watermelon. My wife won’t let me have one, though, because it violates the “no reptiles” rule. Until she comes to her senses, I’m forced to feed watermelon to our goldfish. They’re not really into it, though. Stupid goldfish.
