A Nebestradamous prediction

You heard it here first. I predict beach closures and fishing restrictions to protect the seals. All it's going to take is someone like this lady to realize that a seal might die by swallowing a plug.

Been waiting for (dreading) something like this.

Doesn't look like gay bashing, so

Interesting that our best ally in this battle is sharks. Maybe we can train other shark types to eat gray seals. Of course, we will get bitten yet again by the Law of Unintended Consequences somewhere down the road.

Im really not kidding here. With the Shark issue and elevated bacteria levels in the water from all that seal poo, it sure makes a good case to remove all people from the beach to protect the health and welfare of those seals. THey are protected.. you know what else is protected? PLOVERS>

We will either have complete beach closures or usage prohibitions. The Race will start the trend after the first images make it to the news of a seal that died from swallowing a plug. Those ORV closure maps will have an additional color noting "No Fishing" zones that stretches from the back side in Truro to the Bathhouse.

Nebe You just hit my funny bone only it's not funny.
The wonderful town of Chatham has decided to install sewers throughout the town at a cost of 300million dollars.
The reason for this is to keep the embayments clean of human waste

HERE COMES THE JOKE. ARE YOU READY????

All the while we have 6-8000 seals crapping on our sandbars,in the water as well and don't forget were in a designated pump out area for boat toilets. Kind of gets ya thinking.
I'm going to be forced out of town because of sewer costs so that only seal poop will be in town waters

too easy a prediciton.. and i actually beat ya to it.. been saying this for a while..
and we have already seen seal beaching areas roped off, and traffic of all kinds routed around them down here on Cape sealCrud.. 50 tons a day coming out their tuccusses and ending up in the water just off the shoreline..
Got Mung?..
oh well, at least the cod love dining on the sealcrap....

and millions or perhaps billions will be added to the RE taxes in each shore line town to cut down on the spiked shoreline nitrogen and bacteria levels...
another nail in the coffin for the homeowner.....

i can explain the poo, i think.

Monday my friends and i were fishing PJ light house breaks and my friend AL had a bit to much Taco Bell. he disappeared several times into the rocks a ways out. We became worried that something may have happened to him. We made our way to find, but to only our surprise he was in the midst of a major diarrhea attack and was nestled into the rocks. it seems the rocks were just right and he had running water. Now giving the size of Al 6'5 325 pounds and the 10 pounds of Taco Bell he inhaled, i am confident this can account for some of the poop that may be found in that area.
