It is, isn't it?
They are very common along the Atlantic coast of the US and are considered a nuisance by sport fishermen, even though they are excellent on the table (if you know how to clean them). Harmeless and inoffensive, and slow swimmers, they feed on shellfish and small fish when they can catch one. Also squid and cuttlefish. They attain about the size of a dinner platter.

Show with a real movie that you have gone there, what the fuck I care of these images:

If, by "managing the game", you are ignoring all responses and keep repeating the same bullshit ad infinitum then you are nothing but a troll. This thread and all subseqent threads should be locked and your IP address put on the ban list. |

Sorry Skippy, but you couldn't manage a loose bowel movement.
So BigBrain, my dearest gutless turd, are there man-made satellites in orbit in earth right now?
Answer it, coward. |

Indeed it is; sometimes nearly half as long as the shark itself.
It is used to sort of herd schooling fish, mackrel, herring, and so forth, making them easier to capture. Sometimes it is used to stun them, with the same, desirable results.
Several threshers have been observed -- 'cooperating' is not a good word, but the best I can come up with -- in herding a single school.

Y'know, one of the things I like about SFN is that you just learn so much.
While managing to totally ignore B-to-the-third-power-minus-two meaningless rants, I've learned quite a bit about elasmobranches. Amazing, no? |

I humbly thank you....
Somebody's gotta do somethoing to put a little interest into this thread. Quetzacoatl knows we'll get precious little out of b.
I'll be happy to answer any questions about any of the species I've mentioned, and If I don't know it, I'll find it out.

Off topic, skippy. Read the title of this thread--the title that you made. Please try and stay on topic.

Last I heard, bigbrain didn't own this site.
While the people who do manage it have established a track record of astonishing patience, there are limits to everything.
I agree with pleco. |

Sure sign that you are losing the battle when you have to resort to childish insults.
Sorry, but like I said before, you couldn't manage a bowel movement.
So why are you so scared to answer one little question? Are there man-made satellites in orbit around the earth right now? |
