A little terror relief with a little terror..
Hey isn't it Shark Week on Discovery Channel?
Look at the size of this thing!

Contestant Misses Deadline By 6 Minutes
POSTED: 10:21 am EDT July 20, 2005
UPDATED: 12:41 pm EDT July 20, 2005
OAK BLUFFS, Mass. -- It wasn't too little, but it was too late.
Fishermen who hauled in a massive 1,100 pound tiger shark off Massachusetts this past weekend failed to capture first place in the monster shark derby on Martha's Vineyard.
The reason: The boat was six minutes too late in returning to Oak Bluffs harbor with its catch.
The toothy tiger shark may not have won the competition, but it did win the admiration of other fishermen. Steven James of the Boston Big Game Fishing Club said this truly was a monster shark, and one that "could eat you." |

This photo looks doctored or phony to me. Better vett this whole story. Tiger sharks are generally tropical ranging from 10-20 feet long. This just looks too exaggerated.

That's what I thought too.
MTBoone: If that IS Kennedy, he looks like he has lost some weight.
