Paul the Octopus was one of a kind. But that’s not stopping people from trying to find another cephalopod just like him.
In their search for the next psychic sea creature, aquariums have been busy coaxing octopi to choose this year’s FIFA Women’s World Cup winners. I look forward to seeing how they do.
The games start today. Good luck to all.

A Parrot I Met
Our beloved Paul the Octopus has passed, but there are other psychic animals out there ready to read on demand.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand had one at their Indian wedding the other day. An unnamed fortune-telling parrot with his Guru human friend read cards for the newlyweds and their guests.
Happily, the pretty polly predicted long life, happy marriage and long successful careers for both bride and groom. I wish them that too. And I’d like to get that parrot on Beyond Worlds.
