What a load of carp! Those people at Sunfish have no sole! I get a haddock just thinking about all those clownfish beauracrats who did this, just for the halibut. They were probably shrimping sand dollars from the tech writers, who were working for scale anyway. If they want to save a few clams, why don't they cut the mangers' tidal sums, make them drive Caviarlets instead of Roes R-oysters and Codallics? Who are they squidding?? Us old salts know they're grouping, just trouting out the same old lines... Apparently managers have nothing better to octopi their time than coral jokes in man pages. You beach your life this won't stop here -- soon there will be an insturgeons of seriousness at Sunfish, leaving ALL their man pages with a dolphinish. Oh whale, I guess all we can do is tell them to jump in a lake. Nathan Please, no crab jokes.
