Hey, don’t feel bad. It’s April 1st somewhere (although not there, I think).

I guess if pigs can fly so can penguins.

Uh huh.
Some have actually made it as far north as Arizona.
I’ve seen them by the thousands.
A little known fact is that penguins like heat more than cold.

Not that I’m taking sides in the Big FR Debates, but I wonder what effect tying evolution to April Fools’ Day would have on the public. ;)

Bees cannot fly according to their aerodynamics. But don’t tell them.

But I agree, this is a very good illustrated April Fool’s joke.

I love the picture of them migrating to warm climes. That’s a classic.

I have that WKRP on tape. "As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly" " Oh no they're hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement!"

Classic.

There’s a radio station that is going to throw these flying penguins out of a helicopter next Thanksgiving.

In Cincinnati?

Even turkeys can fly if the wind is high enough.

"Take a look at those fat birds and their wings - they couldn’t fly."

Oh, I don't know about that.

"Look at the ‘wings’ ... that bird don’t fly, dude! "

I don't know. A lot of people go to the Antarctic just to see penguins. That's a long way to go just to watch them waddle around.
