Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #775 – March 26, 2020, 07:39:56 pm Twinkies cereal is a new one on me. Our sister-in-law celebrated her 99th birthday last November. She eats Twinkies and drinks a half gallon of whole milk every day. Her doctor says she is healthier than most of his patients and she will certainly celebrate 100. She lives with her younger sister who is 96. It sounds bizarre to me but it's working for her. Thanks for sharing the photo.Juli WMinden, NV 1 Likes

Just kidding I know they not like hammer heads.They are sort of friendly and gentle, I have been on large sailboats where they come up to the boat and rub against it, maybe an attempt to knock of barnacles and other parasites. It's their huge size that is startling. Good thing they are not meat eaters.Larry 3 Likes
Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #784 – March 28, 2020, 07:07:03 pm As I mentioned in an earlier post, my son sailed alone for 18 months (actually accompanied by his puppy) to the Sea of Cortez in a 40 year old, dilapidated 27 foot sailboat. He recounts that one night while at anchor, he felt the boat swing around wildly. He popped out of his bunk and went up to find a big whale shark pushing his boat around.What does a 25 year old male do in that situation? He dove in, butt naked, and swam with it in the moonlight.Harold 8 Likes
Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #785 – March 28, 2020, 07:20:02 pm Whale shark skin is smooth and clean, and slightly soft to the touch. It is smooth in one direction (head to tail), and rough like a cat's tongue in the other. They are covered in tiny scales that are shaped like little teeth that are all pointed back toward the tail. They have tiny eyes and a gigantic mouth that the use to gulp down small fish, gelatinous zooplantkton, shrimp and krill, etc. It is a little unnerving to have the shark run into you and look into its mouth and out the gills, but they have no interest in eating large prey. They usually have remoras attached or swimming with them.HD 5 Likes

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #787 – March 29, 2020, 03:24:47 pm Bills post brought up memories for me.I highly recommend anyone in the Phoenix/Flagstaff area stopping by Out of Africa in Camp Verde area (once travel is once again safe). $25 gets you an Unimog tour and tons of info on the animals. Including that hyenas are a matriarchal society and the hyena "laugh" is really a scolding when someone else in the pack is overstepping bounds.Jane 2 Likes

Years ago, one of my bosses, had been a marine during the early fifties. His brigade was taken to the Nevada desert to witness an atomic bomb blast, a few miles away, sheltered only in their foxholes. Marines are tough.He had some interesting stories and I still talk with him occasionally, must prove that radiation isn't bad....right?Larry 2 Likes
