   It’s a Perkypulpertine which might be dangerous so keep back 12 feet and 4 inches

   It’s a Pythmospherous Plankton. I’m a Marine Biologist and have studied these fascinating creatures for years. Due to loss of habitat, they were placed on the federal Endangered Species list in 1952, just before the start of World War II.

   Because of the Alabama-Coushatta Indian’s draining of nearly all of East Texas’ natural lakes, their habitat has been reduced to a single small region surrounding the natural springs that form Lake Livingston….

   More information on these shy, gentle creatures can be found at http://www.pyth-plank.org

   Cameraguy, Your comments remind me of something out of Animal House…(they were placed on the federal Endangered Species list in 1952, just before the start of World War II.) 1952? Good one…GRIN…It reminds me of the line where Belushi says “Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?”

   Well, nevermind. I can’t think of anything but a reference to something that we aren’t allowed to mention. And I thought all night too!

   You see, it didn’t hurt that bad. Trust me, it’s the latest rage in all of liberaldom. All of the guys are doing it.

    Looks like a jellyfish of some kind or an algae that eats moss on rocks? I am guessing an algae type species that is good for the environment. It is pretty.

    Y’all all need to watch that Colbert bit. I’ve seen a lot of him, but that’s the best I’ve seen.

    #12, they are in fact freshwater analogs to soft coral. They are in a different pylum, but they fill the same ecological niche.

    I’ve fished Rayburn for the last 30 years and I’ve never seen anything like this. Big gar and alligaters, yes,
