The Indo-pacific Sailfish is the fastest fish: 68 MPH in short bursts. Think about that. It can swim literally as fast as a Cheetah can run through water which is 800X more dense than air. |

Remember our Monk Fish? Do you like scallops? If you do and you are going to a new resturant and see "Sea Scallops" on the menu, make sure to ask if they were harvested from a bay. If not you might be eating this guy: https://i.postimg.cc/DfcjWvHw/0.jpg Some fishmongers sell cookie-cutter Mako Skark as Sea Scallops. |

It was recently announced that this movie would be getting a reboot. Why? I have no idea. |

Let's go back to our Mako Shark. It is the fastest shark in the ocean: 45 MPH. That also makes it one of the fastest fish in the ocean. It's flesh can be eaten by humans. Quite tasty too |

Lobsters have longevity. We know they can live to at least 100 years old. When they get they old they get big. REAL BIG. The biggest lobster on record weighed an astounding 44 lbs, 6 oz. This lobster was an astonishing catch made in Nova Scotia, Canada in 1977. |

The rarity of different colored lobsters shows how a split-color lobster is even less frequently found. The chance of a blue lobster is 1 in 1 million to 2 million lobsters. The chance of a red lobster is 1 in 10 million. The chance of a yellow lobster is 1 in 30 million. The chance of a split lobster like this one is 1 in 50 million. The chance of a white or albino lobster is 1 in 100 million. Typical of split-color lobsters, it is gynandromorphm, meaning it has both male and female characteristics. |

Lobsters are not the only animals that can be gynandromorphms. Butterflies can be too. The right wings are characteristic of female coloring, while the glitzier left wings show off male colors. |

Some birds too like this half male/half female cardinal. https://images2.imgbox.com/cf/83/CENeV6yK_o.jpg |

https://images2.imgbox.com/d4/6b/KHP2BO9Y_o.jpg Somebody had an in with Dodge when this car was ordered. First off, it's a 440 Magnum Shaker car. Ultra rare for a 70 Challenger R/T. Second - the Bumblebee stripe is not Rallye Red. It's Scorch Red. One of a kind. |

21,513 1963 Corvettes were made. Only 318 had backup lamps. Would anyone know why this is such a low number? People felt they didn't need them? |

VERY common addition to the Rallye 350: Chrome trim rings. BTW - none had the W31 engine. That was just a rumor. |

The Mantis Shrimp. They have something very unique about their physiology. They can see billions of different colors. Humans - between 1 and 5 million. Inside the human eye we have cone cells. 3 of them. This is the part of the eye that distinguishes different shades of color. The Mantis Shrimp has 16 cone cells per eye. Not only can they see billions of colors, they can see in the Ultraviolet spectrum. No other animal has that many cone cells in their eyes. Mother Nature felt is was more important for us to distinguish different shades of black to white instead of color. Better for survival. Especially in low and no light situations. |

Speaking about human vision, this is what our eyes see. https://i.postimg.cc/v8rnbXTJ/ga.jpg The human brain corrects what are eyes see by doing a "180" with everything we see when our eyes are open. Human Vision is like a Camera. It has two parts: the lens and the "brains." Both work together to give us normal sight. I remember back in Public School watching a film about an experiment. A man put on a set of special "glasses" (they looked like Night Vision Glasses) which switched this view by 180 degrees. Initially - everything he saw was upside down. But after a few days, the brain corrected this and he saw normally. They shot footage of him riding a motorcycle wearing the glasses. Of course when he removed the glasses, everything went upside again and he had to wait for his brain to correct it a second time. Circa 1959. |

Photo from the Ford Archives. This was the car that Ford wanted James Bond to drive in the movie Goldfinger. Ford supplied the Mustang convertible - one of the first off the line BTW and wanted the chance to provide the James Bond car. Unfortunately, the shooting schedule was already underway by the time the Mustang Fastback 2+2 went into production but Ford created the car anyways in hopes of getting it some screen time. Alas it wasn't meant to be. |
