    my mother in her time off enjoys going out on shimp boats. she enjoys working on the boats for free in exchange for bieng allowed to take photos of the the boats, thier catch and that way of life on the water. she sells some of the photos, and has found some very rare shells, some of which are still unidentified. the link has great pics and some history behind it. i thought i would share something not car related.

    Thank You. I (heart) seashells.

    Several Cockle recipes linked to from this page - can't find fault with a site that has numerous recipes for Cochinita Pibil, that's for sure! Well, maybe with the Cockroach Powder...

    Thanks, Mike!

    I jumped off of a boat on to a sandbar in Florida keys once, lacerating the bottom of my foot.....broken bottle?

    Reaching in the water I retrieved a HUGE conch shell, unoccupied. But then..

    "Federal Offense, buddy that's a protected species, illegal to possess that shell." Well okay Skipper...... So I threw it up on the beach, where some bikinis walked off with it.
