Random Scandal Sheet for Sunday 5/15/16

What southern Florida is talking about this week:

Shark Attacks!

I was all set to post about something else, and then, whilst running errands this afternoon, my phone went off with the actual news alert you see in the accompanying image.

And, let's face it ... I think "woman taken to hospital with shark still on arm" trumps anything else I was going to post (which, incidentally, was NOT going to be about anything trump-ish).

Of course, that tiny bit of sensationalistic reporting, once viewed at the actual website that includes the picture and a few more datapoints, should be taken in context, seeing as how the cute little thing attached to her arm was only two feet long.  And, the article says quotes an 11 year old saying that the people were antagonizing the (wee little) shark!

With good thoughts and well wishes (kind of) going out to the woman who got bitten, I'll say what I always say about these types of things -- in all truth, the sharks were there first.  Just sayin' ...
