This World Needs More Sharks and People that Love Them

Tuesday, January 6th, 2009 by JohnnyShred

You'd Eat This Crap?

Most people think of sharks as eating machines, stealthy stealthing the depths of the ocean, looking for Christian babies to eat, as it is the only way to satisfy their unholy hunger. Kind of like sea vampires, only not quite as hot, and you probably couldn’t get Gary Oldman to play one in a movie. In summary, they are scary so we might as well cut off their fins and make a soup used for some kind of boner tonic for us gentlemen.

Sharks are stealthy, no doubt. But the last thing they crave is human blood. Somehow we need to get the word out. Hmmm. But how to do that, you say? Lets kick it Obama style, do some community organizing and march around and tell people! Can we kick it, yes we can! ¡Si, Se Puede!

On Saturday, January 17th, from 12pm until 3pm, there will be a Shark March Through China Town in Toronto, Ontario. Yonge Street & Dundas Street (Eatons Centre). It might be a long way from any actual sharks, but there is a certain vibrant community there that makes use of a ton of shark fins.

There is more info at the facebook group. Even if you’re not from Toronto, sign up for the group or stay tuned here at the Squid Force HQ for other events in San Francisco and New York.

Remember - if all you know about sharks is that they make for good movies and soup, you have no right to silently judge them. Lets leave the silent judging to the Williamsburg hipsters, shall we?

Trailer fresh

Friday, January 2nd, 2009 by MC

This is the trailer for a new movie about surfing in the fresh waters of the great lakes.
Maybe Chicago has more going for it than their highly overrated deep dish pizza.

There are waves in lake Michigan and all of the other great lakes but believe it or not, surfing is illegal in Chicago. The Surfrider Foundation has been working to change the black ball.
