Calamari for everyone. When I was growing up that stuff was called "bait."

I think it is also the same one that is sitting in a fish tank full of formadehide at Harvard’s Agassiz Museum. That one is definitely extinct. I have seen it.
It would be funny if some old yankee caught it sport fishing and for the sake of “Science” they lied about it and said some poor fisherman caught it in his net.
I think the thick fins would make it a pain to fillet if someone caught one.

An autopsy and genetic tests are now being carried out to determine more about the specimen.Necropsy. An autopsy is a post mortem examination of a human.

Well, you got the 'fossil' part.
Whether it's actually 'living' is a matter of debate.

You have no idea how much fun it is to bring home two dozen squid and process them for calamari in front of a bunch of kids at a family reunion.
Italian thing, I guess.

LOL, did you ever see the segment that RUSH did on his old tv show. He was talking about some octopus that had died in a fish tank, and then had a chef come out with Calamari. He was tossing it around to the audience.
With the exception of the Coco the Gorilla segment it was the funniest segment I ever saw on his show.
