Every year tens of thousands of scantily clad young hot-bods invade places like Texas & Florida. After a number of years, ma nature decides a new feeding ground is afoot & tells the predators where to snack.

DELRAY BEACH · Hundreds of sharks sighted just off the city's beach kept swimmers and surfers out of the ocean for the second consecutive day Wednesday during one of the busiest beachgoing months.

Lifeguards prohibited swimming along the beach to prevent spinner and blacktip sharks, some 5 feet long, from mistaking people for food.

"We don't want to tempt fate," said Paul Milne, ocean rescue supervisor.

The sharks congregate off Palm Beach County every year in March and April to feast on sardines, herring, anchovies and other fish before migrating as far north as New Jersey, said George Burgess, director of the Florida program for shark research at the Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville.

That's almost as bad as the "isn't modem what you did to the front and back yard?" joke I was telling at work today.

Hold on a second... sharks mistaking people for food?

It's true. Blacktips feed on baitfish schools, if they bite a human it's because the human was in the wrong place at the wrong time and simply got in the blacktip's way as it chased baitfish while chomping away.

There are blacktips in the surf all summer long here, but shark "attacks" are rare. The average blacktip is only 3-4 feet long, by the way.

However, certain land sharks *ahem* have been known to nibble on nubile coeds unprovoked . . .
 
Well, Duh!!. All you need is one girl on the rag and you could lose an entire generation of idiots ... I mean voters.
 
We're trying, we're trying.

Oh, by the way, don't use your snowblower on your roof.
