That's what happens when you let the barracuda get too close before drawing on it.

Hunting over bait.

Wira and her dad stopped for a quick picture before jumping in the car and heading to the hospital. Wira said she wasn't in pain at the moment, but she was still creeped out by the fish. Her arm needed 51 stitches, and doctors told her they had never treated a barracuda bite. Her stitches are out now, and she said her arm is healing.

I'm with dad. she wasn't bleeding to death, and not every day do you get a picture of going mano-a-mano with a 'cuda. Plus, should toughen the girl up, raise her panic bar a little. Some day when one of her buds starts freaking out over a papercut or something, she'll be saying, "Dude. Chill. Lemme show you something."

But the expression on the girl's face is priceless.

Yes it is.

My sister has a similar "that is so icky" look that I haven't seen since I gave her "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" for christmas (it's ok, her husband gave her "Sense and Sensibility and Sea-Monsters", so the look was spread around).

I was making moussaka - needed to shove in a 1/2 glass of red and happened to have some Chateau Box lying around ... so I swilled the other 3/4 of the glass

Hmmm... where can I get some of those mathematically impossible glasses?
