ALF should stick to cats! :-)
Leave them fish alone.

Very good!

But seriously -- do these nuts want people to go hungry?

They did nothing but raise the price for the halibut. Stupid.

Too bad the fish farmer didn't get a chance to "liberate" some of the terrorists from their mortal coils.

I think this one is just slightly less dumb than the mink release. At least halibut aren't predators.

Damn, a half million pounds in damage? How will these people ever recover? That's a rough hit!

ALF, ELF and the other enviroterrorists need to be hunted down with the same zeal we use on Saddam, et. al..

Reminds me of when the PETA guy gave the resteraunt lobsters their freedom, but he neglected to take the rubber bands off.

Actually, halibut like flounder and fluke, are highly predatory fish.

"They did nothing but raise the price for the halibut"

Halibut is my favorite fish to eat. Here on the east coast, we pay at least $13/lb for it. Looks like I'll be eating more cod this year.

You're right, but it just doesn't seem so bad when it's fish.

I like salmon or steelhead trout. Halibut can be tough, as can swordfish, and cod isn't really available here. I avoid perch and flounder, unless it's stuffed with crabmeat.
