Oooo....Aaahhh....OOaah!

I bet when Neanderthal kids would make a snowman, someone would
always end up saying "Don't forget the big heavy eyebrows." Then they would all get embarrassed because they remembered they had the big hunky eyebrows too, and then they would get mad and eat the snowman.

Very cool, Baloo, both in function and form.

Speaking of form, I find myself really liking your design for the tug part of the ship. Simple, but sleek looking.

Fascinating description! I am likely to order one.

I only have a problem with the name: "OOah" sounds too much like a German "Proll" (hard to translate, akin to a redneck) expression for astonishment, or is this intentional?

Okay, I can see it now.

Ah, I like it. I'll take three.

OOaah: It's a joke, son!

quote:

Ever hear of the OOaah bird? It's a three pound bird that lays a five pound egg. Sometimes when you are walking through the forest, you can hear their distinctive cry:

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooh!"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaah!"


I think the joke works better in person. Still don't get it? Email me for an explanation.
