But as they're invasive and lack predators, I figure that
the philine biomass should be pretty considerable. We're
not talking about filleting them individually or anything
- more like scooping them up in a big vacuum cleaner and
sending them to the processing plant to be separated into
(say) Jello and lab acid.

I recommend these crackers. The Original Party Mix, the can says.

 HN> Yeah, well today it's already 85 and it's only

Guess who's going to round 1 of the Little League World Series?

But if my eyes deceived me not, there was a ring
on her finger.

At one point she had to go and attend to some kind
of business, so guess who was given the task of
guarding the entrance?
