Spam saved my life...

When I was 16, I was surfing at Halfmmoon Bay.
Knowing that I would not be able to leave the enormous swells, not even for a moment, I decided to take my lunch out with me (Spam on rye).
Suddenly, as I was waiting to catch the next wave, I noticed a large dark shadow lurking beneath me.
Right then I knew that I was on the menu of a great white shark.
So I paniced... and I did what any sensible 16 year old would do....
I threw my spam sandwich about 15 feet away... Now everyone knows that spam is the number 1 food of chioce for GWS's (and surfers for that matter).
So, while the beast was going for the potted meat... I had enough time to swim back to shore.

Whew.... I was lucky that day.
