This is a whale of a tale. Wonder if this is the first time Spacek has ever been fileted by a fish?

No mention if the "victim" floundered around on the floor while awaiting medical attention... :-\

"Allegedly" fighting? Uh...does that mean it could have been an accident? (I hate it when that happens...)

For my friends on the sea and weekend warriors, here's more:
"The sea, perhaps because of its saltiness, roughens the outside but keeps sweet the kernal of its servant's soul. The old sea; the sea of many years ago, whose servants were devoted slaves and went from youth to age or to a sudden grave without needing to open the book of life, because they could look at eternity reflected on the element that gave the life and dealt the death. Like a beautiful and unscrupulous woman, the sea of the past was glorious in its smiles, irresistible in its anger, capricious, enticing, illogical, irresponsible; a thing to love, a thing to fear. It cast a spell, it gave joy, it lulled gently into boundless faith; then with quick and causeless anger it killed.. But its cruelty was redeemed by the charm of its inscrutible mystery, by the immensity of its promise, by the supreme witchery of its possible favour. Strong men with childlike hearts were faithful to it, were content to live by its grace - to die by its will" --Joseph Conrad, "An Outcast Of the Islands", pg 20 (1896)

"We leaned a neat little trick to keep the fish from wiggling. Pour a little rum down their throat and they stop moving immediately. It's makes it easier to take the hook out."

Too bad that Lloyd Bridges and Jaques Cousteau are too dead to deliver eulogies had they been asked....

Spacek should have remembered that the penis mightier than the swordfish.....And I'd guess a little more user friendly.
Or for the Democrats, a WEE bit more user friendly.
