Which is WHY it DOESN'T belong to the following group of 3 critters:
1.  A lobster
2.  An Orinental run over by a steamroller
3.  A peacock flounder

The first two are a crustacean and a crushed-asian.

At the LA President's Club after one red-eye flight from Papeete, Tahiti
waiting for another red-eye flight tonight from lAX back to ATL via EWR.

On ONE dive in Bora Bora, we saw about 50 blacktips, at least 10 lemon
sharks that make bullsharks look like babies, the 4+ foot resident
Napoleon Wrassee (the same one at the same Tabu cite 3 years ago),
Strike's friend the Titan Triggerfish, several lionfishes, and gobs
of assorted pacific reeffish.  Water temp 86F and vis 150ft+ too.  :-)
