Greetings Folks,

I hope you're having a great Shark Week and watching more shows on sharks than you ever thought possible. As an avid Shark Week and general marine fan myself, I've noticed that the focus of this years programming is ATTACKS!! And they're always looking for a reason as to why a shark would bite or attack a human. But, so far I feel that one major details of sharks has been over looked. That is the fact that THEY'RE SHARKS!!! They've survived for millions of years because they're opportunistic feeders. One show talked about a tiger shark that had a suit of armor found in it's stomach and the following show tried to justify why a tiger shark would attack a surfer's leg. I seriously almost picked up the phone to call the Discovery Channel to let them know I had a breakthrough in the case. They're SHARKS, they need to eat and they sample things with their mouths!!! Nuff said. I'm on shark overload right now, I gotta get back on the road and make some music for all you folks before I get even more caught up in the world of the shark.
