Sure! I Can Tell You a Fish Story, But I'll Need to Scale it Back a Bit

Whew!  We made it through Hallmark Day VDay unscathed and with jewelry in-hand (Thanks, Babe!)...So I'm marking this one down as a rousing success.  Having said that, I'm feeling a little lazy and a touch hungover, so I'm taking the easy way out...


Today's post features a Facebook picture status by my friend ML that Him and I sort of hijacked.  But that's what he gets for leaving us an opening.


You see, ML and Him have this 'thing' about eating cute animals.  I don't have a problem eating the ugly ones ('cept I'm terribly allergic to most seafood...and it's common knowledge that most seafood is fugly), but any animal that's had a TV show made about it should be considered a protected species in my book.


Anyhoo, ML is a really funny guy and I appreciate that he's allowed me to use his (rather lengthy) post.
