THE SQUID

The New Zealand coast guard reported sightings of a rare giant squid off the coast of Kaikoura on the South Island. Hundreds of fishermen and scientists went out to either catch or take photographs of the elusive creature. One fisherman eventually spotted the squid and chased it for miles before finally netting it. The proud fisherman was looking forward to a life of fame and fortune, when he was shocked to hear the giant squid say, "Hey, you stupid sod, get me out of this bloody net!" The "squid" was, in fact, an amateur photographer had made and put on a giant squid suit in a bid to attract die attentions of the real creature which he was convinced lived in the area.
