I just can't believe the poor little guy worked so hard to be Montoya's dinner and he did not take it home.
Mr Cowfish was asking about being an affiliate member, I told him to get lost!

I liked it better when I was convinced it was a Knobby Porky
Wasn't that a movie too?
wish I could still fish but I have a problem these days where I can't see fish or any animals suffer and die. Not sure if its a mental issue or what didn't have it when I was a kid it was something that developed about 5 years ago kinda weird.

Does that mean you can no longer watch Dana Carvey's stand-up special?
Yeah, this.^ Don't eat it
Haha it's complicated I should reword this a bit. So I can see an animal die no issues its when I have to kill the animal(doesn't matter bug fish whatever everything applies) I can't do it my wife has been pretty pissed on some occasions such as Roaches I put them in a box and walk them down the street to let them go now. If I kill it by accident i'm not affected it's more of the actively thinking of hurting the animal I get this extremely strong sense of guilt and remorse for it, this also happens when someone states they are going to kill the animal(my wife says it all the time when she is going to kill a roach, nat, or some other bug. Its not as bad as if I did it but I still get that feeling). Like I said it's really complicated and I myself do not understand it either i'm probably crazy.

Im in Clearwater, Tampa at the beach this morning.
Im in about 8ft of water and feel something bump my back, so I scream like a little girl and splash around like an octopus having a seizure.
I make it to the shore, only to see that what ever bumped into me had followed me all the way back to shallows.
This fish then swam right into 1" of water and sit there while I pet it, he even rolled into his side and let me play with him for 5min until I pushed him off back into deep water.
What is this fish?
How poisonous is it is because I touched it?
Am I a disney princess now?
That look exactly as a baby Blue Spotted Stingray and yes it is venomous and swim in those waters usually in little deeper water, it have a venomous barb located near the base of its tail.
So you got lucky if you didn't get stung and that's probably because it was a young inexperienced Blue Spotted Stingray.
CHEERS! :beers:

In Singapore in a place called Newton Circus they serve BBQ stingray. I wasn't a big fan but I tried it once just to say I ate it.
Stingray
Scrawled Cowfish
Yeah! I was leaning toward a Cowfish, I couldn't get the darn tail fin to match for it to be a Cowfish, but the tail fin did mach a juvenile blue spot stingray.. humm... hard to tell... why no settle for cowfish with weird tail fin...
Either way cool fishy :beer:
:beers:
Or...
Edit: Reading some more about Blue Spot they seem very social and do not mind being petted even eating out of human hand...
Now I am confused ha ha ha ha................!
oh! well I like mysteries.
Edit again: Made up my mine now..
it is a Cowfish without a doubt, the small horns above the eyes in the front it's typical feature of a Cowfish. They too seem to be very social and don't feel threatened or afraid of human.. COOL!
And apparently they can fold their tail fin... supercool... now I want one in a aquarium,,
:eyes:
CHEERS! :beer: :beers: :beers:
