Sea Turtles

Don't feed the sea turtles crack.

Never mind where I got that sentence from, that's not important. The real question is what does it mean? No, not that answer. The one that leads us to a more interesting question and could be said to look at a bigger picture.

Now we want to know why they don't want us to feed these nice reptiles hard drugs.

Oh sure, there's the obvious answer. You could say that it wouldn't be healthy for the animals, that they would get addicted and turn to a life of crime on the oceanic streets to fuel their ever growing need for the "white sand", as the hatchlings call it, that they can only obtain from their dealers on shore, but really now, lets try to be a little more creative ok?

First, let us identify this "they" who are trying to make the rules for the common people. These are people who have a great interest in seeing that the humble Cheloniidae are denied their right to the crack we could offer them. These are the people who fear what the sea turtles could become, could evolve, into if they had access to the "egg dust", and truly, there could be only one culprit who fits this description. The Penguins!

That's right, all of them.

The Penguins know that, were the sea turtles to get their flippers on a source of "dry ice"(melts in your mouth, not in your hands), then that would turn the tide of the ongoing war that has raged beneath the waves for centuries. What they fear most, is the coming of the Tortuga Five.

Next time: The what now?
