Always thought “pocket shark” was just a bad euphemism.

I always thought it was something sold by Ron Popeil along with his pocket fisherman.

This is a neat one too. The little holes it takes out of larger animals look like someone took an ice cream scoop to them.

Not very bright looking. Must have attended a public 'school'....*nyuk* *nyuk* *nyuk* *ducks*

Looks sorta like a Rat fish.

Oooh what a nasty little guy. Maybe the name should be changed to the democrat shark.

Thanks BBell. Sorry, I was a little slow on the ping.

Only the second one ever found. Makes you wonder what else is down there.

My guess is a Pocket Shark won't be on that list any more.........

Say, is that one of those pocket sharks you got in your pants?

Why, yes it is. How could you possibly guess?

With that glowing stain, it has to be a pocket shark or some really bizarre STD.
