    Default Surfing w/ shark at Ponce inlet

    It's what New Smyrna Beach is famous for more shark bites than anywhere in the world.

    Definitely makes for a reason NOT to fall!
    Rules of Repair:
    1. If it ain't broke, give me a hammer, it will be!
    2. You only need 2 tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move, and it should, use WD-40. If it moves, and it shouldn't, use Duct Tape!
    3. If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

    Yeah, and after watching shark week... I try to stay out of un-dammed rivers too! Bull Sharks have been found as far up the Mississippi as Illinois!!!! Also they are the most aggressive shark according to many. Jaws was believed to be based on Bull Shark attacks in a river in New Jersey back in the early 19XX's

    WOW... I didn't know this. I'm glad I moved back!

    I used to go to New Smyrna Beach almost every weekend when I lived in Orlando. Nice place minus the sharks
