I'm glad people liked the colossal squid thread. I'm a colossal dork for things like that... it's nice to know some other people agree that squid are cool.

Son of a bitch. I just now figured out that nick cave is playing at the warfield on the 18th. I'm gonna be on out in the pacific ocean then. Oh well, I've seen him at the warfield two or three times already. I'm no so fond of the warfield.
It looks like I've got a second intership lined up for august. I'll be going...

you are SO COOL for posting that article about the colossal squid. i've been obsessing over it for days. it has hooks on its tentacles that can rotate 360 degrees to lock into muscle. cooooool.

Nice pic. Are you a Los Straightjackets fan by any chance?

I went out on a research vessel last thursday. The wind was above thirty knots and there were 18 to 20 foot swells. That made the trip sort of exciting. Instruments were lowered over the side at various locations. I helped get the water samples out and run some test on the samples. I was o-kay while I was outside and could see the horizon...

far fuckin' out man. people out doing shit they love, gotta love that....'specially the "doing" part...
I went out on a fishing boat years ago in florida with these norwegian peeps after an all nighter of drunken debautchery. I've truly never been so ill in my life. there was no way to resolve the "being out at sea" problem as there was no land in sight which made it feel extra hopeless knowing there were many hours left on this little vessel. I locked myself in a tiny water closet and was in and out of consciousness for the rest of the day

Whooo hooo! I'm going out on a research vessel tomorrow... or at least I think I am. There's a bit of confusion. Anyway, it also looks like I'll be going out on another research vessel for a couple of weeks in April.
Look out giant squid. I'm coming for you.

Should I shave or should I grow? If I shave, there will be stubble. If I grow there will be... uh, hair.
Part of me wants to have shaggy ramones style hair. The other part of me doesn't really give a shit and just wants to not have any scruff to deal with.
What do you people all think? Should I remove my hair again?...

If Gene the Barber is too old to have hair himself, still does the back of yer neck with hot shaving cream & a straight razor, and hasn't raised his prices (or learned a new style) since 1963, I say go W/Pigtails' plan.
Otherwise, go shaggy. Nobody knows you've got helmet head if you shave.

Hey Wyatt...do you know Gene?
I did my first shift as an otter rehab volunteer today. Man, those things sure do squeal when you scoop them out of their tank to move them.
I spent most of my break in the aquarium staring at the cuttle fish. Those things are so damn cool. I heart cuttle fish.

We have 2 river otters at my aquarium. Every time I go inside their enclosure, I smell like an otter for half an hour. Not bad, but STRONG 
If you live in Phoenix or Scottsdale, I'm very sorry for you. That place is a sprawling wastland of strip malls, circle k's, and gated communities. It's surrounded by lovely desert but otherwise, it's a horrible horrible place. Especially when you lose your wallet and are unable to fly home. On the upside, I got to come home in a giant RV.

Apparently, I may soon be working part time as a sailing instructor.
I'm pretty damn unqualified but if that didn't stop GW from becoming president, why should I let it stop me?

Hey - how you feeling after that accident you had a while back? How is your hand now?

You lucky fuck!
One of my current dream jobs is crewing a tall ship in some kind of educational program like SeaMester or a youth-at-risk program.
Go for it!
