    Are you Ready?

    So, with that little wake-up call yesterday I'm curious as to just how many of us are ready if there were to actually be a major catastrophy.

    Blue Fish?

    Did a little shore fishing yesterday for bottom fish and came across something a bit weird. Caught a Cabazon that looked normal other than its Mouth, Lips, and Tongue were brilliant blue. Almost the same colour of blue as the border on the site here. Looked like it had eaten a toilet bowl...
