People need to not look like, smell like, or act like food. Your shark wants tyres.

Are you sure you're not that clever shark that has been eating people?

"It's just a school of Bluefish."

Or something like that...

Anyway, I'll never put on a lifepreserver again.

(Probably got that one wrong too).

The event's organiser, Adam Wilson, says shark spotters and underwater patrols are some of the extra measures being taken to protect entrants.

"Really, they're not going to spot anything. They're on the course during the day just in case we do need to help anybody get out of the water or bring them into one of the rubber boats," he said.

"So, really, we're just here to..."
1. point at shark bait.
2. laugh @ idiots that swim in shark invested H2O.
3. get addy's for sending flowers & covered dishes to next of kin.

where does the article talk about shark "seekers"? Is that even a real term or did smitty confuse "spotters" with "seekers"?

/seekers makes it sounds stupider than it is

Who is smitty? I don't recall a smitty in the article. Did you confuse smitty with subby?

/smitty sounds stupid

Has the Blue Oyster Cult made any comments about this?

They never were good at the market thing. Probably why they had to resort to eating people, they didn't plan ahead.

Yeah, but if they did that, there'd be a severe song-and-dance problem instead of a shark bite problem.

If things on the land in Australia don't kill you, things in the water will do the job.

If only there were new seekers they could send.

Divers have to spend good money to see sharks. These people get to see them for free?

No fair.

This is not a boating accident!

 
HighOnCraic 2009-02-28 10:50:33 PM  
I think that I am familiar with the fact that you are going to ignore this particular problem until it swims up and BITES YOU ON THE ASS!

I love living in Australia... It's the only country on earth that goes out of its way to hurt people.

Besides, all the jets that could manage the sharks in Sydney Harbour are still floating around in the Hudson. When you're a jet, you're a jet all the way...

I'm constantly hearing these increased attacks aren't the result of over fishing. Fair enough then. What the fark is it casued by???

Statistical clumping? More peeps swimming? I'm imagining it move along nothing to see here?

Apparently it's because of cleaner water...damn environmentalists.

I refuse to worry about sharks until a famous person gets bit. And in that case, I might be happy.
