School-Bus-Size Giant Squid May Be Lurking


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

Steeped in mystery, the elusive, deep-sea-dwelling giant squid, with eyes the size of basketballs, may be larger than it has gotten credit for. In fact, the monster cephalopod may grow to be longer than a school bus, researchers say.

Is it sad that my first though was pan fried calamari?

I hope it stays where it is, I would die if I seen one that size in my yard.

Giant Squid can only hope the Asian market, both legal an illegal, never discover a practical way to hunt them.

And still another good reason to stay out of the water.  At my age I want to avoid as much possible dangers as possible.  I know you can't idiot proof everything, but why go looking for trouble.

I lived in Florida within the 60's, 70's and early 80's. Fort Pierce to be precise.

Anyway, a semi-popular place to relax in a public park and go swimming in the "Intra-Coastal Waterway" had a problem with sting-rays. My brother got hit by one... not pleasant I guess.

Fast-Forward 20-years... 

During a visit to my home town, and to that exact same park we enjoyed, I noticed that the city had at some previous point done something remarkable: They embedded an underwater fence, tall enough to be visible above the water, and maybe 50 yards from shore. completely surrounding that area to the shore in a "semi-circle"

This was designed, as I found-out, to prevent even juvenile stingrays from entering the "swim-zone" Colored marine buoys mark the fence location.

Apparently the public now feels safe having themselves or their children at that location.

Still scares me what else is lurking down there that  we don't know about.

Worrying about monsters is a distraction by the NWO. :o

There's probably bacteria down there that could wipe out the entire human race in a week.

In comparison, death by giant monster is epic.
