What am I sappy feathered star blogging?

I think this creature is really interesting.  It is a crinoid.  I have fossil crinoids.  I thought they were extinct.  Look at this one just swimming around. Sometimes they are on stalks and are called sea lilies. They are related to star fish and sea urchins.
