Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, again

I think the snakehead fish union must have a pretty good publicist. The state of Maryland just slaughtered 800 of them in that little pond in Crofton, everyone had pretty much lost interest, and the damned things have already found a way to get their name back in the news. “Snakehead in Inner Harbor Creates a Scare: Fish Found by Crabber Is Sold for Aquariums, Poses No Threat, Officials Say.” It’s such a delightfully silly local interest article that I think I would have enjoyed it even if it hadn’t been about that ugly fish. Or maybe it’s time to have some tea. That’s possible, too.
