Posted by: Murphy's Lawyer at October 19, 2009 4:07 AM Clive: a squid has, technically, eight arms and two tentacles. The tentacles proper are usually longer than the arms. But all ten are the kind of appendages lay persons usually think of as "tentacles". So if it looks like the squid has nine, it's probably just that one is hidden.
