It’s so… hot. So very, very hot. For that reason, today’s No Frown Friday is all about being cool. You know what’s cool? Penguins. Without further ado, I turn this No Frown Friday over to our feathered brethren:
- We won’t forgo the punny pet names, even though penguins aren’t really pets. You could always use these names for that stuffed penguin I know you sleep with at night: Feathers Locklear, Pengwynneth Paltrow, and Flipper Gore.
- Do you have World Cup fever? (I hear they have doctors for that.) If so, perhaps you should watch this video of penguins playing soccer. Keep in mind, I use the term “playing” very loosely.
- Check out these photos of some adorable penguin chicks in residence at the Edinburgh Zoo. (Bonus – learn some trivia about the Gentoo penguin while you’re at it!)
- I don’t know what these two penguins are talking about, but I want in on the conversation.
- This baby penguin on a scale is what led a friend to coin “cute-o-meter” – terminology I then appropriated for this blog. Accordingly, what you will see at that link will send your cute-o-meter off the charts. Seriously. You’ll probably have to take it into the shop.
Finally, I leave you with a video of baby penguins learning to swim.

I hope you enjoyed that penguin moment of Zen – should I call it peng-Zen? No? Let’s just pretend that attempted pun never happened… smile and wave, boys. Just smile and wave…
