This just in! More ground breaking footage from MFN Head Honcho:
Speaking of naked chicks. I've been getting hundreds of hits lately because of a picture I posted three months ago of NY Yankee outfielder Nick Swisher's scantily clad girlfriend. Funny how that works. Maybe I ought to do a series of pictures of the girlfriends, wives and partners of famous athletes? Actually I like that idea: Okay here we go. Here's a picture of ping pong champion Wang Hao's current girlfriend. I might add this is the first girlfriend that the Chinese National Ping Pong Association has allowed him to have! (seriously, these fascists control every aspect of a ping pong player's life). Her name is Peng Luyang, and guess what she does for a living? That's right! She's the ranking women's world ping pong champion. Evidently she's the only woman on earth the governing body of Chinese table tennis has deemed worthy of the great Wang Hao. All I can say is, poor Wang, he's got a limited field of potential dates. But what I really want to know is: who wields the paddle in this relationship?
Ping pong champ, and girlfriend of the great Wang Hao, Peng Luyang (imagine the spanking this lady could deliver!)
Exhibit A (Came from deep water trawler off Farralons) Exhibit B (Princeton harbor)
Exhibit C (Muni Pier SF) Exhibit D (caught off the South Jetty HMB)
Same stakes. You get close and you get a free MFN #1, with the accompanying CD. Or, go the creative route...
In closing... I ran into this deeply disturbing video of the Norwegian commercial basking shark fishery. Which, thankfully, no longer exists. Second largest fish on earth, the basker--a very lazy and gentle creature. Though disturbing, I thought this was interesting and historical enough to include here. Be advised, if you are thin skinned don't watch it.
Its not really fishing so much as... fish-execution. (The white puff near the end is actually a bullet hitting the shark). Nevertheless, it comes from an interesting Norwegian website which I will now plug:
Okay... guess what? It's time for that first brewski! I'm outa here!
Oh yeah... from right in the middle of a very welcome downpour, this is Lombard Of the Intertidal, signing out.
While it sucks that the powers that be in China can limit a man's (or woman's) playing field, I can't pity Wang Hao too much: Peng Luyang is an undeniable cutie. That said, one shudders to think of the paddlings that either of them could deliver to the other's backside! Here's hoping they take turns (or "switch", as they say in BDSM parlance) ...
Here are my votes for the critters:
A) Pallid rat-tail
B) Lancet prickleback
C) Johannes Sebastian Bach prickleback (the facial similarities are uncanny!)
D) Kelp crab
I'm sure Northern Boy will deal me a humilating defeat on these ... but, in the unlikely event I should win, I'll designate a recipient for my winnings, under the assumption that - as the primary illustrator of said tome - I'm already getting a free print MFN anyway.

OK, I got the last three; gunnel, stripefin ronquil and sheep crab. The first one I’m stuck on, but I get the feeling it’s a species with an unusual name, something like……DSC01478. It’s just a feeling I get when I look at it on the screen, a feeling that’s really strong when I trace the outline with my mouse………..
Ok, I’m being a smartass. I’m sorry. One score on the fish quiz and I’m a bit too full of myself. Haven’t been fishing for a month, too much snow here in Cymru.
(I promise I didn’t do this for round one; it was a long snowbound evening in with Milton Love and Google images. Such is the life of the fishing addict).
