Saw this on "Animal Planet" the show I think is called "The Most Extreme" or something. Apparently, these things can live in the vacuum of Space as well. Maybe they came from outer space, riding on Comets, and we are their Descendants. LOL

it is said that these particuler creatures live for quite a long time, can't remember where it's located but there is a specimen that a science group has had for close to 150 to 200 + yrs.
And it's still alive !!! |

Daily Horoscope for June 2
Scorpio
You're in the mood to spend money on a favourite hobby or pastime today, so take care if you're supposed to making every penny count at the moment. The temptation to treat yourself to something that you'll undoubtedly enjoy will be too strong to resist, and the trouble is that you might not restrict yourself to just one item either. It looks like being an extravagant day!
