Vote for Paqaq!


Chicago's (truly awesome) Shedd Aquarium has a new baby beluga, and, in conjunction with the local NBC affiliate, they're holding a contest to choose his name.

Shaker KarateMonkey emailed me to let me know that Shaker RedSonja (who happens to be his wife) submitted a name, and hers was chosen as one of the five finalists! Her submission is the last name on the list, Paqaq (Pah-kak), which means "One who gets into everything." RedSonja is just the most passionate animal-lover evah, and it would be really cool if she could win.

So stop by and vote for Paqaq! Go RedSonja!
