IMAGES

Great new spin-off entry! But we need images, we need Chilly Willy, Pingu, and the Linux penguin here, not these silly biological specimens! Russell Potter 22:45, 30 May 2007 (CDT)

HAH!

Penguins in popular culture. Because sometimes you just need to write a fun article. Shall I compliment this with Cows in popular culture? Hmmm... Here's a start:

As one of the longest-domesticated animals, cows have played a significant role within Western popular culture. Sometimes carrying the power of life-directing myth, and sometimes merely depicted so as to evoke a hearty belly laugh, they have been portrayed in art, nursery rhymes, language idioms, advertisements, and cartoons and comics since the early 1800s.

But seriously, I think we should be able to show exceptional quality in these types of articles as well.

That's a very good idea, Stephen. I don't know why I didn't think of it before. I'll leave it to you to start it. John Stephenson 04:14, 31 May 2007 (CDT)
