National Sea Monkey Day
May 16 is National Sea Monkey Day!

Sea Monkeys are a unique species of brine shrimp (scientific name Artemia salina) that start out as dry powder "eggs" and grow once water is added. Originally marketed as Instant Life by inventor Harold von Braunhut in 1957, these tiny, almost invisible to the naked eye, creatures have been sold to children as novelty aquarium pets since 1960.

I didn't raise Sea Monkeys as a kid, in fact, I've never seen them in person, but this South Park clip is really all the exposure anyone needs...(you guys)...
