1. Imagine coming home for a late night dip in there.
   when we were kids we played Jaws in the pool and that scared us, you know that last second as your getting out that grab on the foot.

2. What does alligator taste like? I’m sure there’s
   a friendly neighbor nearby that could help skin and
   part that up.

3. TO reboot

   Most every festival down here has a tent selling gator-jerky, deep-fried gator, gator-on-a-stick or some variation on that.

   I’ve hear it tastes like beef.

4. Beins a retired sailor, I’ve hit many a foreign port, and ALL
   of them had food carts of some type that sold meat products.
   I never asked what those wonderful cooked meats were and they
   never offered. I just made sure they were cooked.
   The only place I ever worried was San Juan and their burrito
   carts…..Riding from Rosie Roads to San Juan I noticed there was
   nothing bigger than a chihuahua sized dogs running around at the
   speed of light. Where were the large dogs?
   My first smashed sammitch in ’80’s Europe was a wake up call……

5. What’s the worry? He was leash trained.

6. Rather find them in the pool than in the “Kathy Griffith” bowl.

7. It’s one of the things that really does taste like chicken.

8. Gator is good fried.
   Taste like chicken.
   I had a fried salt water croc
   sandwich in Perth one time.
   I can still remember how good it was
   20 years ago…

9. Used to be gators were only seen in residential areas that built out on the fringe of the Everglades, but that has changed in the past 15-20 yrs.

   We have a floating duck decoy chlorine dispenser in our pool and I’ve found ducks and the occasional ibis checking it out from time to time, but no gators.

   We did come upon an 18 foot gator on a local golf course and my annoying dopey BIL visiting from northern VA thought it’d be funny to antagonistically approach it “to see what it would do”. I informed him they can outrun a human but he was free to test it’s stealth and I got in the cart and left.

10. I thought it was another “Rosie O’Donnell in the Water” post … sorry, it’s about the gators – Go Gattahs!

    izlamo delenda est …

11. A man came home late and found that his wife had thrown his luggage in the pool!

12. Could be worse. Could have been a naked liberal female.

13. And here I was getting mad at the frog spooge in my pool. Anybody know how to repel frogs?

14. I’ve eaten crocodile before when I was on vacation in Africa. That was back in 1995 when it was still relatively safe in Kenya. I probably wouldn’t go there today. It did taste pretty much like chicken.

15. I don’t know how to post it, but Gator Tail by Rock Bottom from Florida would fit right in here.

16. I’ve eaten gator a few times. The first was the best ever. Our family took a boat ride (small boat) through the Everglades in ’86 and we stopped for lunch at a shack/bar in the swamp that served fried alligator nuggets. Loved them. Tasted like a cross between mild white pork meat and chicken. Drool when I think of them ever since.

    Thought I get a dinner of gator in NOLA or the Lake Ponchartrain area a few years ago, but the dives we like to frequent on vacation didn’t have it on the menu. Couldn’t find any dives the last time in the Everglades either. Last year I bought frozed gater from the Cajun Grocer, but my preparation came up lacking in taste. Too expensive to buy that way again. I drool.

17. I ate chicken recently. Tasted like gator.

18. Belts, shoes, handbags and luggage

19. Would be nice to have a real looking electric gator to keep the neighbors out of the pool when you’re gone.

20. Mama’s got a new pair of shoes.
    Papa’s got a brand new bag.
