It’s not April 1 yet, is it? According to the Herald, a French yacht taking place in the Jules Verne round-the-world sailing competition was attacked by a giant squid. I fully expect them to run a story tomorrow on cannon-propelled rocket to the moon.

  1. Apparently they do exist in the deep recesses of the oceans.

  2. Oh, I’ve heard of them. The Snook thinks this might have been the first actual sighting of a live one though. I was just incredulous based on the fact that a giant squid attack happened during a Jules Verne race (since it also happened in 20000 Leagues Under the Sea).
