Shark Week - FOR REAL !!

[ArkRescue]

Don't go swimming in FL w/o caution. 3 people were attacked in a short span of time. I guess the sharks heard that Shark Week was coming up and wanted to show their hineys?

Three swimmers hurt in shark attacks in Florida

Right down the road from me

Tourons are calling like crazy.

Them: Are there sharks in the water???
Me: Well....yes.....it's....you know...the Gulf of Mexico....



I mean, seriously, if you take a helicopter tour over the Gulf you'd never go in that water again. But *some* people come thinking it's Disney beach and not real nature. The good news is that out of almost 4 million visitors by the end of the season, so far only three have been attacked. That's pretty good odds. Where most of them come from, they're more likely to be a crime victim in their own city than get eaten by a shark here.
