Manatee, really?

OK, I usually don't pay any attention to the status based on number of posts but I noticed Sonny and Eric had over 10,000 posts and had a "manatee" status. So I am guessing that you go from "lingzilla" to "manatee" at 10,000. I have nothing against manatees except they are not a fish, they don't live in NCAL and they are not good table fare.  Actually I am not sure about the table fare thing, just havent seen any recipes for cooking them. Why not something like "pac butt" or "grey ghost" or "T shark"?

Actually, after some research, Manatees are ok table fare. They are protected in the U.S. as an endangered species however so you couldn't shoot one.

I believe the Manatee label was bestowed upon Joel when he his hit that level.  It was right around the time of his free diving days when someone commented he looked like a Manatee in his wetsuit.  Just thinking about this puts a smile on my face.  Love you Mooch!

I'd rather be...Sailfish 

Too much SW bias, maybe time for some FW love.  >10,000 posts = Catfish     

If we're going to stoop to the level of "catfish" , you might as well go all the way & make it "carp"

   Who's going to be the first to 100,000 posts?

>20,000 posts should be MonkeyFace.

Change from fish to fishing destinations if over 10k posts.

With my average 4.5 posts/day it would take me about 60 years to reach 100000th post! 

All Hail!!

Damn Jim! You just made it to 6000!  Maybe that should be MFE    Someday I hope to be a Manatee
