They were talking about it on the radio yesterday. Just a little random tidbit.... or should I say squid-bit. Sorry, couldn't resist.

A tentacle tore off and that's what they pulled up. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.

Dallas you aren't the only one thinking on those lines... if those things grow to the size of a bus then you would need lemon wedges the size of a vee-dub (vw) Last edited by wish-ga at 28-Sep-2005 21:34 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~
