Fifteen-footer beaches itself! Winemaker wades out to examine!
Our love for the flashily reckless great white continues! Without words, these titanics of the sea speak volumes!
Here, we see the winemaker Dale Pearson wading out to a Great White shark whose navigation skills have left it gesticulating on a shallow sandbank. And, Pearson, who knows the shark can’t get to him snatches the rare opportunity to examine the White.
“Holy fuck me right. Holy shit, holy shit,” he says.
Ironically, it’s the mostly inoffensive stingray that strikes and not the White.
“It was a calculated risk. I am neither brave nor stupid. I knew the shark was too shallow and out of range. The stingray however did get me. I have over 37 years of ocean exposure and this is my first stingray hit. Very painful.”

dude never learned the stingray shuffle and vocab seems extremely limited but at least he walked out to get the shot rather than just trying to zoom from the beach. two gold stars. one demerit for not making it clear where this took place.
If you read some of the newspaper reports, they say the stingray “bit” him.
Hilarious.
Dudes are from Imperial County. I’m not sure if I feel worse for them or the dying shark.
So did the shark die or did the tide come in to ensure it continues to grows another meter or 2?
All that swearing in front of the wildlife was a bit unnecessary.
Rather uncouth if you ask me. No wonder the stingray jabbed him.
Serves him right.
Shark Tit. Just start a seperate website for all the people with Shark Tooth Soup fetishes. Anyone got any updates on Pink Slime Gate? That was golden reading.
put me down for more gossip less sharks yes
Shock! Headline! Shark doesn’t bite man!
Ginseng Saccharo
Pearson Brothers Ginsing Saccharo uses an actual root of high quality hand selected Wisconsin ginseng inside the bottle. This process allows all the properties of the ginseng root to infuse into the wine. The combination of ginsing and honey make for an incredible and complex flavor profile. Currently only available in pre orders and waiting list. If you would like to be put on the waitin list please contact
Wisonsin Ginseng?
Is anyone on this waitin list?
If by Wisconsin ginseng they mean the highest grade medicinal marijuana the mind can conjure, then yes. Yes, I’m on the list.
or at least I want to be.
Sharks with frickin’ laser beams. Yadayada
What I want to know is what KS is thinking. His opinions on surfing and otherwise. When does he plan on starting his World Title Run?
Fuck Kelly, bring on Laird!
When does Laird’s title run start?
If you are referring to the title for saying wacked out shit about sharks I think it started a few weeks ago with menstruation gate.
I imagine Kelly and Laird at the same Aged Care Facility dribbling on nonsensical nonsense. The nurses have long since banned any access to the internet. Laird has been designated to an all male lodge. Kelly is fooled into taking his meds by the nurses telling him it’s a Chia Seed Purps remedy for his scoliosis
I wonder what his wine tastes like?
Grape-free! http://www.pearsonbrothersw…
See the irony here Chas. A grape-free wine is like a shark-free ocean.
Preposterous and ludicrous! But potentially delicious.
is this a very well placed ad for the winery? me thinks maybe
central Cal?
Down the bottom!
A slight thread hijack: holy shit Chas, Stab mentioned you in an article in the same goddamn breath as head inertia dorkus Zach Weisberg. Congratulations, guy.

“Cut from the same cloth” ha who received the compliment, chas or Zach?
For all their (many) faults, my Central California homies ain’t fuckin with no grapeless wines.
He said that it was the Sea of Cortez so wouldn’t that be Baja or mainland Mexico?
