Today i heard Vic Hislop discussed on the radio.
If you don't know about Vic then you either a) haven't been to his shark museum at Hervey Bay or b) you haven't lived a life worthy of talking about in public. Wanna know more about his Aussie hero? Hear this guys rants about Vic at www.thecud.com.au/html/story23.htm
On my first-year college tour we visited his dungeon of shark hatred. It was amazing. To get an idea, check out this review - www.flashpacker.com/Australia%20and%20New%20Zealand/Australia/shark_attack.htm
The gist? Sharks are monsters who roam the waters ready to devour. Anyone who's every drowned? Sharks. Anyone who's every gone missing? Those pesky sharks. Does that include those gone missing inland, far away from any water source? It does in Vic's world.
Want more evidence? Have you wondered why whales beach themselves? Simple. Sharks.
Anyway, you know you're doing good when a blog exists with the sole purpose of putting your teachings to a stop. Check it out at vichislop.tblog.com. Blogs not your thing? Then join the facebook group "For all those that think Vic Hislop should be gutted like the uneducated pig he is" at http://apps.facebook.com/causes/9592?m=de0957a2
It's sad that the tall poppy syndrome has claimed another national treasure.
