]]> Throughout the years my dad and I have had some duke-out contests wrapping the holiday gifts. We aren’t just talking about fancy bows and ribbons here. Oh no…one Christmas all of my presents were shaped like pyramids, while all of his presents were in double duct-taped boxes. Yeah…it get’s real in Casa de Warneke.

This season, in an effort to be more sustainable and offset the gajillion holiday catalogs I have received in the mail (seriously Brookstone it’s getting ridiculous) I decided to go a different route.

Sacrificing a small stack of old Alert Diver mags, I wrapped this years gifts in an assortment of my favorite squishy creatures.

Deck the Halls with Bows and Tentacles…Fa la la la la lala la la.
Nothing says a ruined Silent Night for this macaques than the impending SAND STRIKER OF DOOM!
We fish you a Merry Christmas…
…we fish you a Merry Christmas…
…we FISH you a Merry Christmas from this Astroscopus gattutus right here!
No sea-themed wrapping job is complete without an appearance of the West Marine 2016 Holiday Catalog.
And Wah-la! Presents as educational as they are fun to look at. Happy Wrappings!

]]> It’s December. With all the parties, year-end-deadlines and general holiday shenanigans, have you found the perfect gift for that marine science-lover in your life? If you have, Cheers Matey! If not, DSN is here for you to help you get the deed done. This week we will be sharing our hand-curated guides for your gift giving pleasure. GO FORTH AND BE MARITIME AND MERRY.

And just to get the holiday cheer going, here’s a short selection of my favorite holiday cards gathered from my mantle and the interwebs.

This is one of my favorite holiday cards I’ve ever received. Handmade by my good friends Jacob and Sarah, nothing says the holidays like a sperm whale underneath the tree.
OR TENTACLE-TASTIC? You decide and then send it to your friends.
Boughs of holly on a rolling ship at sea. This screams I need DANGER in my holiday festivities my friends.
MUSH YE CRUSTACEAN!
This card is absolutely inexplicable. Which is why I love it so,

]]> geetssyWe at DSN are not typically fans of the dolphins but we’re no monsters.  I love cranberry sauce out of the can but I do want my Thanksgiving dinner shrouded in depth.  Well except the turkey.  Okay I’m a hypocrite but dolphins are the line.  That is why this Thanksgiving I am pledging my support not to eat any cranberry sauce that is not dolphin free.

But seriously though…

The photos seems to have first surfaced on a Reddit group called /r/funny, where members routinely swap amusing photos, real and photoshopped.  This particular photo, which appears to have been photoshopped, was briefly lent credence by a hoax Wikipedia page (“Cranberry Bog Dolphins,” which was almost immediately taken down)

Yes there is no such thing as cranberry bog dolphins.
