LOL, it's just the circle of life! Extra buffet food goes to pigs -> pigs get fat -> pigs slaughtered -> pig meat delivered to buffet -> extra buffet food goes to next generation of pigs, etc.
I just remembered, the ships also have that quota/cap in place now. For those who don't watch the show, it prevents overfishing and running the crews into the ground. However, I think the captains made a bet in the fist episode to see who could bring in the most crab per pot. _________________ Ostrich :>--O==={

We have it on replay TV...I have to wait for my fiance to get back from his business trip tomorrow to watch it. Can't wait!! We've got a projector and screen so we can watch it on a 90" screen. Almost like seeing it life size.
We watch Dirty Jobs too. You've just got to love Mike Rowe. Did you guys see the monkey sanctuary one they did last season? That was one of the funniest episodes. The people running the sanctuary were pretty crazy themselves, never mind the monkeys. _________________

That monkey episode is the only one I purposefully avoid. I want to shoot that monkey lady every time I watch it. She drives me *&#$%ing nuts.
Ooooo, a projector! I say we steal Torrey's cake and have the party at your place insead. Mmmm, Mike Rowe and cake... _________________ Ostrich :>--O==={

*glee*
They should set up some sort of online betting pool. You could bet to see which ship brings in the most crab, or gets done first, or whatever. All the money could go to wildlife preservation in Alaska.
Or booting out the 40 billion tourists, whichever comes first. _________________ Ostrich :>--O==={

So what'd you think Al? That jellyfish thing surprised me. I didn't realize they even lived in those waters, and that they could cause so many problems.
PS - I'm head-over-heels in love with Discovery's new commercial. Everybody should send them a video snippet of their favorite things. Then Discovery can crunch them into one giant song. _________________ Ostrich :>--O==={

Yay, the wait is over!
I am kinda looking forward to the Dirty Jobs next week that takes place in Dutch Harbor for Alaska week.
And I love that new commercial too - not that I didn't see it a bazillion times during the season 4 premier last night...
Who wants some crab?  |

Crap - I missed it. We were watching the Biggest Loser. I'm sure it'll be on 15,000 more times  _________________ Al
