I just wanted to know if anyone has thoughts on this. I find it humorous but then how much money was involved and how many resources taken up that would have been put to better use somewhere else?
"Trickster Put Shark in Austrian River
By Associated Press
5 hours ago
LINZ, Austria - Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water _ well, it is, actually.
A mystery triggered this week by the bizarre discovery of the carcass of a 3-foot-long shark in a freshwater river in northern Austria ended Saturday when a man confessed he had put it there as a joke.
The prankster, an apprentice chef working at a hotel in the province of Upper Austria, told the newspaper Oesterreich that he put the dead shark in the river Voeckla after it began to smell while he was thawing it out for a buffet.
Its discovery on the riverbank earlier this week caused a stir, with Austrian experts hard-pressed to explain what a shark was doing in a freshwater stream in the landlocked alpine country.
The chef, whose name was not released, told the newspaper that several regular customers were in on the joke and had placed bets on how long they could keep the controversy going."
That is the most shocking thing I have ever read.
I sense a bitterness in you today Gus that's causing you to lash out with a steady torrent of sarcasm..... do you want to talk?

Will you all just stick to the topic. I honestly would like your opinion on this matter.

I know, I love it
And the best part is, you know the drama ain't over, 'cause no one who announces that they're leaving ever actually does it...
Well I am leaving and I mean it..... I'll be back after awhile though...
So, did anyone bring the popcorn?
