chrissie: the kids would freak out if one of those beasties came out in Nemo

allison: VERY freaky ... and no, they are creatures of the deep; live and die down there. The angler flicks his glowing tendrils, which look like glow-in-the-dark worms that also populate the depths ... so when fish come to eat the "worms," they get eaten!

buttah: you thinking ugly fish sushi? LOL

chrissie: musta missed the angler in my in-depth study of a cartoon about fishies LOL

and I'll get right on the perspective thing, though most of these, if I remember right, are kinda small.

allison: all real pictures, darlin' .. here is the site I found the pics at ... www.extremescience.com/deepcreat.htm ... there's an eel that can eat fish bigger than it is because it has a crazy huge mouth and a mucho-expandable stomach ... freaky stuff

DZER said...

allison: I don't think they'd survive well away from their natural environment ... the sea truly is the last frontier ... they're still finding things they thought were extinct, or creatures that have never been previously documented, especially at great depths ...

eddie: that would explain a lot ... but I did think the fish on the bottom looks like it would do well in either the money markets or the legal profession ....

yeah ... but I'm pretty sure the vast majority of those hits are me checking my posts and to see if anyone has commented LOL

hell ... today is the first day I've ever had a post (two actually) get significant numbers of comments ... and again, a lot of those comments are my comments to others' comments

love is a strong word ... I think people find the DZER pleasantly amusing and sometimes funny ... but the world needs clowns too, yes?
