Like all good toys aimed at kids ages 8 and up, my Triops kit resulted in a death over the weekend. Our dear Mister Triop is now in the great big sushi platter in the sky. He passed away some time during the weekend, which was not a big surprise, as he had been acting a bit sluggish the past week. There was a brief memorial service in the handicap stall of the men’s restroom followed by a tank cleaning. He lived to the age of between 57 and 59 days, not too bad considering the range of 20-90 that was originally quoted.
