Every time I see/hear about a tiger shark I think of Robert Shaw in Jaws and the story of the USS Indianapolis.

Ever notice all the parallels between “Jaws” and the WOT? A community happily enjoying life until a threat (shark) enters the scene. The shark wasn’t provoked and it has no business being there. At first the community tries to downplay it and ignore it, but the bodies start piling up. So the authorities get a team together: an old-school tough guy and a technology whiz. They know there is no way to persuade the shark to leave them alone. It will remain there until they destroy it. So they go out to kill it. They succeed, but not without casualties. The immediate threat is gone, but others loom just beyond the breakers.

Eh, just thinkin’

Even the waters of Tahiti are not immune to Obamanomic inflation.

Amazing pictures. In other news I spotted a 300 pound fruitcake running the House Financial Services Committee.
