Yes....been enjoying their last effort, Fear Inoculum. Listening to Danny Carey's drum work is a delight.

Whatizit ?
Can you describe it?

I can. Carole King and James Taylor singing together (or apart) creates a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations.


James Taylor and Stephen Colbert singing together.
Whatzit? (In the same vein as Murph's Whatzit.)

I originally thought it was a photoshop job like the vicious koala. It's not, about three feet "long". Mostly terrestrial, mostly eats coconuts, can be quite tasty BUT it also eats carrion and can be poisonous depending on what it ate. Another reason to be glad not to live in exotic climes.

YES, Our friend hanging off the side is a coconut crab – the largest species of crab in the world. They’re so large that they even hunt birds on occasion.

"Tree Lobster"

Dryococelus australis, six-inch-long stick bug. It has a lobster-esque exoskeleton. It once occupied Lord Howe Island in the Tasman Sea, between Australia and New Zealand. Thought to be extinct. Found specimens on a nearby island. Not so extinct.
