Paris,

What the heck is a CPAP machine? Okay, I cheated and Googled it. Great, she needs to wear a gas mask to bed?

[parishht]

Yes it is like wearing a gas mask to bed,
I have to wear one.

Anyway, is that flea from a nuclear power plant discharge area?

[Stinky_Hooker]

So thats a sand flea for real? what the heck? :o

[Stinky_Hooker]

If Im not mistaken its a giant isopod. Closely related to the roly-poly or however you spell it. But, how did you catch it? I thought they lived in really really deep water.

There is a type of parasitic isopod that I find inside the gill covers of various fish. They are pure white and get to be ~ 1" long. They look very much like miniature versions of the big fella there. Whats interesting is that their legs end in the same hooked tips. It makes them very difficult to remove. Makes me wonder what kind of surface it lives on cuz those feet weren't built for walking as much as clinging tightly to something.

That must be a rough neighborhood, someone stole the wheels off his boat trailer and left it on blocks.


WHAT IS THAT THING??????? :o

Tally Ho, you're Mr head comment reminded me of a story. There used to be a Doctor in this area by the name of Dr. Head. Unfortunately his first name is Richard...

He actually made it onto Letterman's show one time when he won a contest for the worst name... Dr. Dick Head.

[randlemanboater]

I went to college with a guy named Richard Head, of course you know what we called him. We would have called him that even if his name was George Washington, he really lived up to his name.

Had a salesman at the electrical supply store with the name Richard Peters and yes he preferred to be called D1ck. He was the nicest and sincere man with such a name.

Back to the sand flea if that is what it is. We dug a gallon bag of them at Long Beach NC and never got to fish with them to see if they were any good, most of them went 1 to 1 1/4".
