Robert Oschler is making sure that none of us miss a bit of Pleo cuteness; this time we get to be voyeurs enjoying Linus’ day at the Changes Salon…

Hello Judie,

Put this under the “truth is stranger (and more fun) than fiction” category. Here’s a video that shows Pleo World member maggie44n’s Pleo named Linus getting the full treatment at the Changes Salon, including a fossil rock massage:

In my next life I’m coming back as a Pleo!

Me, too!

Here to begin the week with some robotic shenanigans, is this video sent in by our friend Robert Oschler…

Hello Judie,

The best way to start a Monday is with a smile. Pleo rides the Roomba, complete with matching surfing attire:

This video is from Pleo world member Maggie44n. Everyone can read more fun stories about her Pleos Linus & Schroeder on her plog.

It’s been a little while since I heard from Robert Oschler, the guru of all things robotic, but today I had a happy surprise in my inbox…

Hey Judie,

They don’t get any cuter than this.

Here’s a video that shows what happens when a Jurassic Park renegade robot dinosaur meets a family of Dolphins at Sea World.  The fun begins at the 2:00 minute mark when the dolphins crowd the exhibit glass to get a gander at Pleo:

The Pleo in the video is Pixie, who belongs to Pleo World member Siren.  Here’s a link to her Plog (Pleo blog).
