    This shark is an affront to God. Only God can create without the act of copulation. We must KILL THE SHARK to teach her a lesson!!

    Unless the baby shark is the second coming...

    Damn.

    tomorrow's headline: "Catholic's build shrine around aquarium"?

    Cracks me up, I lived down the road from the building in Clearwater, Fl, when the "image" appeared due to stains on the windows. Some org bought the building and turned it into a tourist attraction, used to be a car dealership.
