The cable cutting thing in the Middle East is odd enough as it is, but it takes the Wall Street Journal to make it weirder. It found an expert to claim that the cables could have been cut by sharks with laser beams on their heads, but it was unlikely. Then it upped the ante by including an artist’s rendition of said sharks with laser beams on their heads.
Thank you, WSJ, for making us look that much more respectable in contrast. And they say blogs aren’t the future of media.
um..
Could it have been mutated seabass?
No, it definitely looks like a shark with laser beams on his head did it to me. However, the artist’s rendition appears that the shark actually has laser beams on his [i]sides[/i]. Hmmmm… someone didn’t get the idea of laser beams being on the shark’s head.
I tol’ ya!!! I dun tol’ ya!!!!!
