I was just watching the news before heading out to the marina and
there was a story about the Great White that is visiting Senator
Kerry's island off Nantucket.

They had pictures of three idiots, in a 17 foot Boston Whaler Sport,
pulling up next to the shark and one freakin' idiot -

you will love this,

TRIED TO PET THE SHARK!!!!!

Honest to god, the bozo leaned OUT of the boat, over the side and
tried to pet the shark.

The shark was getting ****ed too as the boat had it pinned between it
and the shore.

The only thing that would have made the story better is if the shark
came up out of the water, grabbed the idiot and had a leisurely lunch.

These things can leap to amazing heights you know.

Take care.

That reminds me of the killer whale playing around in a harbout out british
Columbia way. The thing stays close to shore and plays with the boaters.
Some people do pet it.
