I just wrote and article for a New England fishing magazine on Makos, and am working on one for white sharks in the Massachusetts area, which would be printed in the winter. If people read it during the summer they might over react. - Tom

Sharks need to eat, too.

The shark is really asking for a lawsuit.

Littlefield, who said he had always wanted to see a shark eat a seal,

As Winston Churchill said (borrowed for Daniel Burnham) "Make no small plans"

Fourteen passengers on a seal watch boat saw a shark attack and kill a seal yesterday during a cruise to Monomoy Island.

I wonder if any of them were Nature-loving types, out to see Mother nature at work -- and got an eyeful of reality.

Better they witness this normal act of nature than have to watch the naked gays buggering each other in the dunes further down the coastline.

This wasn't a shark attack.

This was a shark having lunch!

It's not like somebody was going to feed the thing a bowl of Purina Shark Chow.

“Littlefield, who said he had always wanted to see a shark eat a seal, turned the boat toward the area, which quickly became red with blood. As the boat got closer, the shark went under, taking half of the gray seal with it.”

If I were on a boat wanting to see seals and the captain intentionally took me to see one being eaten, I’d be mad as hell. That’s like looking for a puppy and winding up at certain Asian restaurants.

Friends of my parents had a summer place in Chatham and sometimes when we visited we’d go out to Montomoy. The thing I remember most was how quickly the the water dropped off on the backside.
