Our cousins across the pond have caught their first snakehead fish. Have any of these been caught near cville? If so, please send us the location. Its always been my dream to fish with a shotgun, and be rewarded for it. If you see this fish, please kill it, take a picture (s) along with a short note about the battle and weapon of choice and email it to cVillain.com:

Disgusting~~~
I killed a snakehead in the ACAC pool with a Yanamamo blow gun and a dart tipped with ibogene.
Rewarded? Sadly no. I had my membership revoked.
The giant snakehead will eat absolutely everything in a body of water then crawl over land to the next pond or lake. If there’s an infestation near any other bodies of water, those other areas are almost sure to be infested soon because the snakehead can survive four days out of water while it looks for a new home.
Crawl over land? Four days out of water? Holy Jebus! The photo in that link is scary enough to cause shrinkage(kinda like Gene Simmon’s sex tape). I need to get a high-powered taser, and an electric cattle prod. I’ll cook it while I defend myself.
It would seem unlike they have gotten this far up the Rivanna. Sorry, no Frankenfish for you!
is my memory failing, or wasn’t one found in a pond in either MD or VA along the Potomac or Chesapeake a few years back?

I guess my memory is still fine.
You know what that means, right? I can spare the brain cells for some TEQUILA!
thanks for the link, here’s some payback - linkypoo

Speaking of snake heads…
…wait for it….
*impatiently taps foot*
mutters expletive and then sighs….
Wait’llYouSeeMyDogKrap has an oddly appropriate picture up on Google Images right now. I’m sure will change as his ‘posts’ become so much more interesting.

For ‘posterity’ sake, I even provide a screen capture:

I heard that these things are considered delicious in China, and that’s how they made it over here. So, is Panda Garden to blame?
Somehow, I doubt they use my suggested cattle prod/uber-taser method of cooking these beasts.
@12: that first link didn’t work.
expletive sigh? Curious as to why
And they breathe air, not with gills! Probably somebody’s mom threw out his pet fish and it crawled down the hill.
Looks like a fish head to me.
/can I pet it?
lol @ anal fin!
Fish heads! Fish heads! Roly poly fish heads!
What ever happened to Dr. Demento, anyway?
@21 - Apparently, Dr. Demento’s show is still on the air.
Wow. Thanks, Street! So many flashbacks to some really inappropriate listening material from my childhood.
I don’t get it…what was the point of this? Is this a family portrait cocoNUT? Are you guys running out of news/gossip/creative stuff to post about or am I just missing something?
Fish gossip IS gossip! Don’t be such a specieist, Sid. Geeze
Sorry Sil, I just didn’t realize how partial you were to fish…I personally just like to catch and eat them. I will do my best not be such a specieist (I like the word by the way) from now on. In fact, I may have to spread the word that fish are hot…and apparently gossip of the week.
Wikipedia says they are good eating.
Also says to get rid of them you have to poison the whole lake for three weeks and kill all vegetation and animal life within it. It recommends frequent removal of the carcasses.
Well, like I said, bon apetit. I resist the urge to link to another thread here about clean ups.
im just here waiting for someone to make an anal fin joke
What happens if you run into a bunch of racist homophobic NYC cops? You get the fine anally.
Once an enterprising youth who was fairly thin
had an inordinate amount of some paraffin.
Once shaped with his thumb,
it was attached to his bum,
and he went around sporting his analfin.
i has a confuse.
Well give it back to the inmates, I am sure they are tired of sitting in the dark.
Did someone mention Dr. Demento and animal songs?!

Sleepover? Fourth grade? I honestly have no idea what you are talking about.

Camp iawanna? I always thought it was granada.
And a good night/morning to you too!
Not bringing this up ever again? Agreed.
Pillow fight?
[…] weeks ago we told you about how clever snakehead fish have become, and how you MUST shoot them on site, no questions asked. It seems we overlooked […]
A snakehead prank in England:
Man-eating ‘psycho’ fish found in UK
http://www.metro.co.uk/news/article.html?in_article_id=100114&in_page_id=34
“The story of the snakehead fish reportedly caught from the River Witham in Lincolnshire was a complete hoax.
“Expert opinion from fish scientists insisted this warm water species could never survive in the icy Lincolnshire river for more than a few seconds. It has since been discovered the snakehead was actually dead laying in a Lincoln street and the finder preserved it in a domestic freezer until the following weekend when the misleading pictures were taken.”

I’ve got a whole pond full of those things in my secret lair. There mean little bastards with FRICKIN LASER BEAMS attached to their heads!
