I learned on Shark Week that six-gill sharks swam closer to my very bed above Puget Sound last night.

Closer than what? Quit drinking and get back to work.

Closer? Closer than what? What bed? Were you in a boat?

I understand what you're saying Jen. When I first heard that there were sharks in Puget Sound, I was ready to move to Spokane. But then I read that they are not known to attack unprovoked, and I'm not the kind of dumbass who provokes sharks. So just don't do that and you should be fine.

They swim closer to shore -- way closer -- at night.

Above Puget Sound? Were they flying or swimming?

@6 I guess you're attempting to explain what you meant in your post, but I'm now thinking that you should go get checked by a neurologist.

You might be interested to know that Fnarf, like MacHeath, has just a jackknife.
