help males hold onto females

Sounds like a comparable tool could be made for humans.

It would be good to have something to steady all the bouncing around, which would keep the ashtray from falling off the back.

Or the beer from falling off the head...

Is that why they call you ‘Stubby”?

My husband once caught a 3 foot sand shark at the NJ shore. We made 1 inch slices along the spine, and breaded and fried the pieces. I left a batch of the fried pieces in the refrigerator, and my little (7 and 10) sons would grab a piece whenever they were hungry and go back out to play. It was a tasty shark.

Rat fish are nothing like any variety of common shark

Shark, by the way is like deer meat, an incomplete protein - you need another protein source, like beans, to make a whole digestible protein - else the meal for nothing for you.

I’ve tried shark, mostly for the irony, enjoyed it.

Tastes like chicken?

[SunkenCiv]

It’s got a tougher texture than most fish. Tastes okay. I’d much rather have swordfish or salmon.

Somebody misinformed you. Both shark and venison are complete protein and very high protein per pound.
