    The Not-so-Baby Shark at Atlantic Beach

    This is a story about the day I went for a walk in Atlantic Beach, FL and saw two guys holding a giant shark on the beach. I love to walk over to the beach in the evenings, after most of the crowd has left and the sun is starting to go down. I usually find some sea glass and a shark tooth, if I’m lucky. Last night was a little different. I found more shark’s teeth than ever, just this time they were still in the mouth of the largest shark I’ve been up close and personal with outside…

    That one time, I posted about shark penis

    I’m pretty new to my neighborhood, and I’m happy to be getting to know my new neighbors, I just didn’t think I’d be known for shark penis. Or claspers, if you will. I now know way more about shark genitalia than I need to. See, we all thought it was a baby ray. We are always finding interesting things at the beach and one night during our evening stroll I spotted what I thought was a dead stingray. So of course I handed my son a stick and told him he could poke at it. We flipped it over to…
