Again, I am very sorry.

From the article:
I was tempted. My animal-rights half was outraged, but I had to respect the club's ballsy defiance of the law. And frankly, the meat didn't look that bad; fork tender but not fatty, just a touch of gristle. I took a poll -- it doesn't taste like chicken. Some club members likened it to tuna, others said it was closer to buffalo. One said it was like pork, with a hint of seafood. One guy asked if I'd ever had possum. When I said no, he told me the two were virtually indistinguishable.

1. Idiots. Nothing more, nothing less.

I noticed that the fella liked to listen to Limbaugh. Big shock.

I'll bet that some of those folks could be found over in yon Freeperville.

6. it is illegal but they haven't been caught yet

There is some really awful stuff in there and a few facts about the law.

...And very illegal. Manatees are protected by both state and federal laws. The Marine Mammal Act of 1972, the Endangered Species Act of 1973 and the Florida Manatee Sanctuary Act of 1978 all make harassing, hunting or killing any marine mammal, including the manatee, punishable by a fine of up to $50,000 and one year in prison. State law calls for a fine up to $500 and 60 months in jail.

sorry but even if I was into exotic dishes, I don't think that manate would rank up there

5. Thank goodness.

Well, that is just deranged.

(I was suspicious when the mystery group opened up to a *gasp* self-confessed vegetarian.)
