Saw it on Friday night. It's tooooo long, tries to cover tooooo much and features tooooo many damm belly-dancing hippies. BUT. There are some magical scenes and moments where it really hit the mark on humanity's oneness with the planet, our seas and the dolfins and whales in particular. And how indigenous cultures are aware of and still honour that. Worth a look. I think you'd find some stuff you'd like.<BR/>LLouise Daltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18157994411440515015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-13962086784399090622009-02-22T04:22:00.000+11:002009-02-22T04:22:00.000+11:00This post really gave me the chills...not only bec...This post really gave me the chills...not only because it is superbly well written, it deftly describes the two legged sharks of my night & daymares.<BR/> <BR/>Awesome post!Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14706331228965193251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-25900925362457280632009-02-21T07:40:00.000+11:002009-02-21T07:40:00.000+11:00If a shark attacks someone at the starting line, d...If a shark attacks someone at the starting line, does that mean they'll then be handicapped?

I will indeed go into the water. presumably I am OK because I tend to stay within my depth or close to where I can touch the floor? My sons think I am very pathetic. They don't help my little fears as they keep going underwater and pretending to be sharks to frighten me!!<BR/><BR/>I still haven't lived down my hysteria last summer when I stepped on some large flat fish thing which had buried itself in the sand in the shallows.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-58674586361222332112009-02-20T15:42:00.000+11:002009-02-20T15:42:00.000+11:00Oooh I think there should be a warning about shark...Oooh I think there should be a warning about shark pieces. I shouldn't read them but once I start I can't stop. The boys will never get me in the water this weekend now after reading that. Although I guess it would improve my swim speed no end if I saw a shark.<BR/><BR/>But yes, running is much safer so I think I will stick to that.<BR/><BR/>As for your race - surely it will be fine. If someone had been gobbled up by a shark in the past I'm sure they would have abandoned it years ago. That's my logic for life really - I know there is always a first but I always reason that I am rarely first in anything so it is highly unlikely to be me!<BR/><BR/>Good luck with it anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-48394485673754616422009-02-19T12:32:00.000+11:002009-02-19T12:32:00.000+11:00Far out, fifi, the image of the whaler shark with ...Far out, fifi, the image of the whaler shark with his gaze locked on you and a glint in his eye, just put shivers up my spine.<BR/><BR/>Sharks are about 2 million miles outside my comfort zone, even though I love the sea.<BR/><BR/>Hope you go well in harbour swim!!!!Ulrikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07303376326165829257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-55284191134890592652009-02-19T08:18:00.000+11:002009-02-19T08:18:00.000+11:00I think Christine might be a cyber-shark.I have al...I think Christine might be a cyber-shark.<BR/><BR/>I have always had a healthy respect for water sharks, even since I had a high school teacher who was a very hairy man except for a big naked pink strip up one side of his body, caused by merely being brushed up the side by a shark.

It is considered by many in the industry to be like a topical version of Botox injections because it can help to relax frown lines and the furrows found at the brow and in crow's feet. Scientists recommend a concentration of 5-10% and I use a concentration at the higher end if this safe range of Argireline in my night cream.
