True, but we're looking at it in this shot from the 1 or 1:30 position, not straight on from the side.

Edit:

Just looked at the link with the other shots.

Better view of Dolphin/Shark in the 2nd photo here. Check out the tail. Looks more like a dolphin in the 2nd pic. I would still be scared out of my head if I was the guy on the board.

Are you sure it's a dolphin? the tail looks vertical and the step in the head where the nose starts doesn't look like it's there.
it's a dolphin. A shark's dorsal fin is shaped a bit differently... and the tail is horozontal, not vertical. Plus, a shark's tail would be more sickle-shaped - longer and more-pointed.

Captain?!?! What is this, hockey?



I love Varitek. He 'da man. . . Although personally I'd have given Tim Wakefield some serious consideration for that honor as well - he's as much of a unifier and fixture of the team as is JV, IMO. . .

Even better that he didn't go to the Mets, despite what smack-talkin' Pedro said.

Flash and grid girls higher ????

Gotta revive this thread.



Anyone else have an F-1 in the backyard? This isn't mine, but I hope my son's will look similar some day.

My mom is the worst cook in the world. Seriously. When I was a kid, the oven timer broke. It was never replaced. No need. We had smoke detectors.

Funny thing is, she loves to cook.

lmao! irony is that I used to think my mom was a pretty good cook until I had a chance to be on my own for a decade-or-two. now all of her food tastes either too greasy or salty. of course I'd never tell her that

My wife is convinced that I became a vegetarian, not for philosophical reasons, but because of my mother's penchant for cooking all meat until it's alla carbonara.

My wife has noted that my family roasted chicken recipe is a strong contender the "driest chicken on the East Coast" award.

Smoke detectors! That is the funniest thing I've heard all day!

Thanks for the laugh, Moses....

I was in my teens before I learned that scraping the burnt bits off the toast was not part of the recipe
