The one I just applied for?

 

[LeviT]

Ah dang, i want that job.... they have internet connectivity so that means I can keep my current job too! That would be cool!

 

[sfsuphysics]

I'd take sick time for that, however I can imagine millions of applications coming in so that they'll simply randomly pick a handful then go from there.

 

[phishphood]

So I told my gf about it and asked if it would be alright if I did that. Her response:
"screw you man im doing it"

Foster is my last name oddly enough, I wasn't "pissed" as they say down under when I've had my encounters though and I never really got scared, just awestruck while calmly paddling my butt off.

Tuberider: You know, I gotta ask. I fish quite often in Montara Beach and the Tidepools in HMB. So far I have caught 2 baby shark in Montara Beach. What types of generals that have been buzzing you while you go surfing?

I remembered this joke while getting my diving license:
Q: What should you do if you see a great white shark while diving?
A: Grab a knife, stab your friend, and swim away ASAP (justkidding)

Thats Hilarious... I've done some minor reef diving around Guam and I can sooooo relate to the "awestruck while calmly paddling my butt off" comment.

"The General" is a 13-14ft white that is spotted a few times a year ~Montara and Linda Mar, I've only seen him/her while up in the parking lot @ Montara. Around here only the reefs get cruised and they're not surfable very often. I've have seen 3 whites in total two of which were near 20', wayyyy bigger and fatter than the general. Funny part is the only shark that's been aggressive to me was a 4' sand shark, I laughed at it at first, then realized it was serious and committed to seeing what I tasted like, that was not fun.
