Post: It Breaks My Heart, But...

Where you been Sharky?
By my estimate we've got 40 million gallons of crude in the gulf, with no signs of a fix, and no comments skewering BP, Haliburton, or the federal government.
I would have expected an entry utilizing the terms "Tony Hayward" and "dog fucker" by now.
This is such a big deal, and so much bigger than the death of individual Sharks due to the "dog fuckers" that participate in Shark-kill tournaments, and bigger than the "dog fuckers" involved in putting Orcas in circuses, and even bigger than any debate about Sea Shepherd and the "dog fucking" Japanese Whaling industry, that I have been unable to have any kind of sense of humor about this.
BP, CEO Tony Hayward, the ever-evil Haliburton, and the federal government, which exists primarily to keep the rich getting richer, are beyond "dog fucking." These people and the machines they support should be raped by Cthulhu's thorned-and-tenticled cock until the end of time.
It Breaks My Heart, But...
Ronnie James Dio, arguably the best metal crooner of all time, he dead.
Sure, Lena Horne may have been a bit classier, but to Sharky's generation of Sharks, Dio's death hits a bit closer to home and has a bit more teeth. Rock on in hell my little Sicilian friend.
I bet a lot of you long-suffering diehards thought that I was going to announce my retirement with the title of this post. Naw, The Chumslick is still kicking, although admittedly a bit sick.

Cherry Blossoms and Hot Dogs
We don't know what is going on around you this weekend. In Brooklyn, we have the annual Sakura Matsuri Cherry Blossom festival at the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. The rites of spring and the ensuing odes to Cherry Blossoms are a big deal in Japan, and in cities in America with Cherry Blossoms, we tend to have Japanese cultural events in tandem. Do you like creepy cosplay? Jpop? Animae? Samurai fighting exhibitions? Of course you do, you are on the internet after all, right? Well get to your local Cherry Blossom festival and participate in a cross-cultural exchange.
You like baseball? So do I! You like hot dogs? So do I! You like pretty flowers? So do I! Akira Kurosawa is awesome! Uh, by the way? Like Dolphins? Well, ever been to Taiji?
You get the point. Happy Springtime.

This Blog is Now About Giant Isopods

This is what you find if you delve too deep. There are things that man was never intended to know and places that man was never intended to go, like 8,500 feet deep. This Giant Isopod is Bathynomus giganteus was found clinging to a research submarine. At over 2.5 feet, Bathynomus giganteus is supposed to feed on dead Whales that end up at the bottom of the ocean. But you just know these things would love to suckle on your pineal gland.

What is the cause of the delay in our posting as of late? And why are we posting easy stuff like giant sea bugs? Because our host migration problems are not over. Apparently in the migration, we lost hundreds of pictures from posts pre-2008. So we are slowly trying to track the pictures down and fix our older posts. Lame? Yes. But at least we get to go back and fix our spelling and grammar errors too.
Big ups to the true believers,
