Giant Octopus Attacks Sub

Posted by Zonk on from the not-as-cool-as-you-think dept.

Apostata writes "As reported by the CBC, 'Salmon researchers working on the Brooks Peninsula [British Columbia] were shocked last November when an octopus attacked their expensive and sensitive equipment.' Apparently it was caught on video, but no word on when/where it will be available. Apparently this is the first documented attack." Obviously the start of something bigger.

  1. Prostitute Schedule for Jan. 27 at the MBOT in SF by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    Folks, check out the updated prostitute schedule for January 27 at the Mitchell Brother's O'Farrell Theater (MBOT) in San Francisco. The MBOT is the most convenient way for you to buy a blow job, a hand job, and full service (i.e. vaginal sexual intercourse).

    I kid you not.

    what the Americans did to the Indians.

    Wait to hear that it is the manifest destiny of America to conquer the water, and that evil octopi are to be herded up, put in a reservation, and infected with smallpox.
