Fabulously sung and danced by Sammy Davis Junior. By the way, the dance routine choreographed by the director of the movie Bob Fosse is as brillant as the ad.

That sounds right judging from <a href="http://images.google.com/images?q=mudskipper" rel="nofollow">these pictures</a>. It looks like at least one mudskipper already exists in the toyworld: <a href="http://www.asylvm.f9.co.uk/r&s.html#lnk6">Muddy Mudskipper</a>. Or you can get the <a href="http://muddymudskipper.ytmnd.com/" rel="nofollow">audio version here</a>. The <a href="http://dreamontoyz.com/renandstimpy/muddymudskipper_small.jpg" rel="nofollow">doll</a> doesn't look that cute though. Thanks, Tib. That sounds right judging from these pictures.

Regarding the video, I really like the creature at the end, I think it would make for a cute stuffed animal. (Unlike most people, I've been known to care more for animals without fur than with it. Just another evolutionary glitch on my part perhaps.) Thanks, those are kind comments, they made me smile (after I got over the embarrassment).

I must’ve taken an alternate route on the evolutionary path since I still hate beer for the most part.

Or perhaps you’re actually ahead of the evolutionary curve.
