Why do I have the twilight show theme running around in my head? Then again maybe I should switch to the Jaws theme because it is fishy.

If I were a stockholder of that aquarium, I’d be firing everyone within a mile of that tank. Ten years and the staff never knew about a 3.5 foot creature eating all those expensive fish? Imagine what else they were too lazy to do.
