QUOTE This week, anglers in Great Britain are mourning the loss of Benson -- a 64-pounder thought to be the nation's largest common carp. She was about 35 years old when she was found dead last week. More here.

Is it bad that the first thing I thought when I saw this picture was how many people she could feed?

People didn't respond to the Nestle ecoli poisoning either. Don't feel bad. And I had discussed Cronkite a great deal that day, just not here. :( Sorry
 Joanne! Poor Benson. They're going to put her up in some lodge or something, I think. I arrived home before I heard the rest of the story. |
