Giant seems a bit hyperbolic. Its a really big squid, though.

Usually when I read stories on FR about bottom-feeders, I expect to see some prominent Democrat's name.

Hungry?
To: Arkle
Just another news item with the typical animal-rights slant. Notice how there is no mention (other than the photo) of the late fisherman (possibly a highway worker given his outfit) who was also brought up in the net...
To: Arkle
Calimari anyone?

This could make a very interesting episode of Iron Chef!

Now what we need is some giant garlic and a giant can of tomato sauce.

Comments? Mmmm?? That little snack thing is a "giant"? Of course, after the silly English have finished smothering it in formaldehyde it won't even be a snack.

Sort of.
Ex-wives are universally known to have prefferred the "starfish position." No discernible movement whatsoever.

That one made me guffaw out loud at work. Thanks.
