Ex-Squid-Zit Ink

In the ocean, there are fish that can make Ink. Whenever they feel nervous, or afraid, those fish begin to dispense a dark & cloudy liquid. Fishermen are known to call them "Ink Fish." But the proper name for fish who produces Ink, are called "Cephalopod." [Sef- uh- luh- pod] The Octopus, and The Cuttlefish are a part of the same family. Guess who's also part of their family? Squids! Fish Ink is very popular in Italy and Spain. The Ink is used in many delicious meals, or even as food coloring. Cuttlefish are able to make a brown/reddish Ink called "Sepia." [See- pee- uh] Whether it be an Octopus, Cuttlefish, or Squid, they're exquisite. Wait... They're Ex-Squid-Zit!

I C U and U C ME!

Before mirrors were modernized, people used very shiny brass or bronze metal to see their reflection. Another way people often use to captured their reflection, was with water and anything that produced dark coloring. Mirrors are made with the most purest/cleanest glass. Gold leaf, aluminum, silvery metal, or copper, are usually placed in the back of the glass. To make sure the glass and the backing sticks together, two or three coats of paint are added-on to the backing. Then the glass is heated at a really hot temperature. With the help of a mirror, a few artists use the reflection they see of themselves. That's how they can draw a "Self-portrait." I guess that's the reason why mirrors used to be called a "Looking Glass."

Marco Logo


Hi. I'm Zooch. I just so happen to be a bear from a cool, tropical island. What is the image you see inside the water? This is called a  "Logo." If my memory serves me correctly, I remember telling Kuba what that meant.

"A logo is an awesome picture, that describes a company's business, with an illustration or a design." 
 
So now you know what it means, Let's go over the logo in the water. It is a sun wearing reading glasses. There are a few shoes going around the sun. There's 2 sets of hands on both sides reaching towards the sun. And below is a pen that's exploding colorful ink.
This if the Official Logo for FUN THINKERS INQ.

P.S. Happy Birthday Aniimal Town
Microsoft's Party Popper
Thanks-A-Zillion!

Fresh Air

Air purifiers are machines we plug-in, to help eliminate rough particles from the air we're breathing. If someone has asthma, or allergies, they may have an air purifier inside their homes. This is a good way for them to inhale cleaner air. There are a few air machines that have something important built-in called a HEPA filter. The main duty of this kind of filter is to vacuum-in at least 99.97 percent of the air inside of that room. And clear-away particles such as: dust, dirt, and dander from our wonderful pets. After a certain amount of time, those filters will need to be replace with brand new ones. It's really nice to share the air with you!

Mooo-ve Over

Dairy is the product of Milk, Cheese, Ice Cream, Butter, Yogurts, and Creams. Milk and other dairy products gives us something called "Calcium." That's what helps our muscles grow big and strong. Not only can cows make dairy. Goats, Donkeys, Horses, Buffalos, Camels, Sheep, Reindeer, and Yaks can make it too. The calcium is known to be part of many of our dietary nutrition. Not everyone can eat/drink dairy-made things. But the good news is there are many alternative products that still taste just as delicious.

"Why did the cow buy storage boxes? 
Because he was MOOving."

DOUGH-Ray-Me

 
Today is going to be yummy. And that's because today is National Doughnut Day! A doughnut is a sweet desert, that is made with fried bread. While in the oven, the yeast will rise inside the dough. That's how doughnuts become big and fluffy. When the dough has cooled-off, you could either use a doughnut cutter to cutout a circle in the middle, or leave the dough just the way it is & add filling. They're known to have toppings like: powdery sugar, chocolate & vanilla swirls, and sprinkles. But most importantly doughnuts have ICING! If you're ready to celebrate this tasty treat, help yourself to a doughnut feast!
