23 feet eh? Do they make croc saddles? I wanna hitch a ride across the Pacific, then maybe I'll see what the big deal about Asian Chicks is...

You don't need to travel across the world to see a bunch of Asian women, just go to Disneyland on a Saturday.

Or, you could find a mini-bac game.

Maybe these will come to Virginia, because that would be pretty cool.

I hate Disneylandia, even more so on the weekend.

I guess you're joking, but if you are not, I can't see it happening because I don't think the crocodiles are made for cold currents like some sea turtles can handle.

A while ago I was in Costa Rica, and literally a couple of days before I arrived, these two surfers chartered a local boat to go surf a couple of breaks that can't be accessed by land. These guys hopped off the boat and surfed a spot in front of a river mouth. They surfed for a few hours, and had a great time on what was their first surf session on their trip. They hopped back on the boat, but the boat was stuck. It had come to rest on a sand bar during the low time. The skipper instructed the surfers to jump off to see if they could rock themselves free. The first surfer jumps off and is instantly devoured by crocs. His buddy watched in horror as he was torn to pieces within seconds. The skipper panicked and wanted to get free of the sandbar and asked the other surfer to jump off, but he refused. They had to wait for the tide cycle before they could leave, the whole time watching the crocs finish what remained of the guy. This story was one of the first stories we heard when we arrived. You can hear them in the rivers we had to ford with our 4x4 at night. One of us checked for depth while the rest of us drove through. It was a vicious came of ro sham bo (rock, paper, scissors) to determine who got the job of depth checker. So, I for one am not happy to hear this news.

What, big sticks have no use anymore? Someone once stole my pool skimmer at a party I threw. That would have been quite handy.

I was kinda joking. Big things that eat people aren't fun.

It's a card game very popular with Asians.
