			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A user named Kyrosan on IRC sent in this <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=08bCZFXoAPs">video of his cat answering an Adium sound</a> (specifically, the contact-signed-off sound from the TokyoTrainStation set). Behold:</p>
<p><object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/08bCZFXoAPs&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/08bCZFXoAPs&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object></p>
<p>Thanks to Kyrosan for the video link, and to Robby (who is one of the people who help out on <a href="http://trac.adiumx.com/">our Trac</a>) for suggesting that I make a blog post out of it.</p>
<p>While writing this post, I couldn&#8217;t help but think of <a href="http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0,22606,23758873-5006364,00.html">the story of another cat and Japanese train station</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://waffle.wootest.net/">Jesper</a> informs me of a website called <a href="http://www.thispeanutlookslikeaduck.com/quack/">This Peanut Looks Like A Duck</a>.</p>
<p>This site, like so many, originates with <a href="http://www.thispeanutlookslikeaduck.com/quack/2007/12/13/this-peanut-looks-like-a-duck/">a single post</a>, containing a photo of a mis-shapen peanut next to a rubber ducky. The site&#8217;s creators have followed that post with a succession of photos of other objects that look like various kinds of birds—mostly peanuts, and mostly ducks.</p>
<p>Thanks, Jesper. And if any of you have any other duck sightings to report, feel free to <a href="http://adiumx.com/faq/ContactUs">contact us</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Adium user Daniel Versteeg wrote in to tell us that his girlfriend, after inaugurating a fresh jar of mustard, discovered that she&#8217;d inadvertently carved the shape of Adiumy out of it:</p>
<p><a href="http://adiumx.com/blog/uploads/2008/05/adiummustardduck.jpg"><img src="http://adiumx.com/blog/uploads/2008/05/adiummustardduck-225x300.jpg" alt="He's there in the jar, carved out of the mustard." title="Adium mustard duck" width="225" height="300" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-532" /></a></p>
<p>He sent us this picture (which he took with his iPhone) partly to ask you whether you had any Duck sightings of your own.</p>
<p>So, how about it? Have you seen Adiumy (or his silhouette, at least) anywhere? (We will, of course, need photographic evidence, to document his journey.)</p>
