Southwest Airlines partners with Discovery Channel to promote "#Sharkweek on its Boeing 737-700 aircraft June 1 through August 31, 2016
Chompie (who reportedly would weigh around 84,000 pounds if real) is seen "going through" the Discovery Communications Headquarters building in Silver Spring, MD shortly after having his head installed on July 28th, 2012. He is constructed mostly out of fabric and his five pieces are kept inflated by a continuous supply of air from blowers. His appearance marked the approach of the 25th annual Shark Week on the Discovery Channel.
More photos can be found at my Demoitx story online.

Since it's shark week, I wanted to capture a picture of Mr. Buster with one. Mission completed with this awesome saw shark, but the wife decided to photobomb my shot. Thanks!
Day 88 of the 365 days challenge.
I don't normally wear a do-rag, but this is Scarf/Shark Week, after all. And, since I haven't done the photoblogging thing in a while, here's some whining about my life.
Some of you know the pain of dealing with lighting equipment-- especially softboxes. This particular softbox, in fact, is my arch-nemesis. After wrestling with it for an hour when I first got it, I called My good friend Kelly. "Is there a trick to this? Are you not actually supposed to put the fourth metal thingy into the fourth pocket?" She laughed at me. Nope; you're supposed to get all four metal rods into both the ceramic thing that goes around the bulb, and into the ends of the softbox. It's supposed to be really hard. It's a two-person job. So, at the time, I persuaded a grumpy husband to help me, and it was done in no time.
Sometimes, I am stubborn.
Just when I think I'm adapting to all of this pretty freaking well, something inside me will snap and I'll do something absolutely absurd. Like wrestle with a softbox all by myself for an hour and a half. There's something inside of me which refuses to believe that this HAS to be a two person job. My mom is seriously arthritic, and my daughter is three; if I want a studio, I have to do this myself. There's no way in hell that it's just IMPOSSIBLE for me to accomplish this by myself.
I tried working smarter. Then I tried working harder. Then I tried working harder than that. Did I mention the loft is a heat trap and it's in the 80s today?
My head is bloodied, but unbowed. There's absolutely no way I will accept that I'm somehow handicapped because I don't have someone to split the heavy lifting in life. I won't believe that some things are just two-person jobs-- it just means one person has to work twice as hard, right?
I'm probably an idiot. I'll let you know once the softbox is put together.
OH. Shark fact: the male hammerhead shark bites the female into submission in order to get her to mate.
EDIT: five hours later, the softbox is assembled! Okay, so I took a break to eat lunch/keyword stock photos/watch All My Children. But the important thing is, I AM SMARTER THAN THE SOFTBOX. And stronger. Does anyone have some tape? Because I am RIPPED. *flexes*
The whale shark (Rhincodon typus) is a slow-moving filter feeding shark and the largest known extant fish species. The largest confirmed individual had a length of 12.65 m (41.50 ft) and a weight of more than 21.5 metric tons (47,000 lb), and unconfirmed reports of considerably larger whale sharks exist. Claims of individuals over 14 m (46 ft) long and weighing at least 30 mt (66,000 lb) are not uncommon. The whale shark holds many records for sheer size in the animal kingdom, most notably being by far the largest living nonmammalian vertebrate, rivalling many of the largest dinosaurs in weight. It is the sole member of the genus Rhincodon and the family, Rhincodontidae (called Rhiniodon and Rhinodontidae before 1984), which belongs to the subclass Elasmobranchii in the class Chondrichthyes. The species originated about 60 million years ago.
The whale shark is found in tropical and warm oceans and lives in the open sea, with a lifespan of about 70 years. Whale sharks have very large mouths, and as filter feeders, they feed mainly on plankton. The BBC program Planet Earth filmed a whale shark feeding on a school of small fish. The same documentary showed footage of a whale shark timing its arrival to coincide with the mass spawning of fish shoals and feeding on the resultant clouds of eggs and sperm.
The species was distinguished in April 1828 after the harpooning of a 4.6-m-long specimen in Table Bay, South Africa. Andrew Smith, a military doctor associated with British troops stationed in Cape Town, described it the following year. The name "whale shark" comes from the fish's size, being as large as some species of whales and also a filter feeder like baleen whales.
Is it safe to go into the water? It is when you can take a bite out of the shark instead of the shark taking a bite out of you!

It's summer and you know what that means: hot weather, lots of ice cream, and Shark Week on the Discovery Channel. Here is TK-7707, the Littlest Pikachu, and Iron Man playing Scrabble: The Sharkweek Edition. I decided not to keep score in this game because its sharkweek and the sharks ALWAYS win...even when they are not playing. They're just that good ;)
HAVE A JAWSOME SHARKWEEK!!
reruns during the day and new episodes start every night at 8pm on Discovery!!
Note: Photoshop magic helped add the mising letters in here. As players may well know, Scrabble only has two M's, two H's, and one K per game.
