Welp, if you think that is awesome the Cape May / Wildwood area is nice and has a bunch of shell shops, as does the otherside with Ocean City, MD and Lewes, DE. Any “down the shore/tourist” area would most likely have them but… I happen to like the one in Cape May NJ best, “Diamond Beach”. They find little clear “rocks” since its not a sand beach, it’s the bay. They polish them and sell them in a tiny jar that has “Diamon Beach” written on it… for about 7.00 =) hah. But, on another cool note, there is an old cement ship wreck that sun right off the beach, though pretty worn now…used to be awesome when I was younger. Salt water does it’s wear… Alrighty anyway…enough banter… Enjoy reading my insanely long post.

I’d rather have an octopus lamp that a rock lamp.

Sorry if someone mentioned this already (no time to read all comments), but that octopus lamp is clearly part of a larger set that is widely available. My dad has the frog and my friend Christy has the turtle. Sounds like it’s a sea life series. So, probably you can find it somewhere, Matt.

For example, here it is on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/Amber-Octo...QssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem

Cheers.

To Mystie,

My mom owns a scrapbooking store and has been published in those magazines. There’s scrapbooking stuff all over the house. Can’t complain seeing as how she’s always looking out for crazy Ninja Turtle and Ghostbuster items for me.

where are these facts?

How can I go through my days without knowing facts about shark teeth?!

Nice write-up though dude. I remember there was a shell shop where I used to vacation as a kid… for some reason it always smelled like a dentists office.

I also throw my hat in with those that say you should’ve got the octopus lamp. It’s a big megaparty, go and get it and write an article about that sucker! Because as you said, “Life never sucks when you get to come home to a light-up octopus”.

Fall Life, w/o a doubt. Summer is just horrendous sad and constantly ready to backfire on you:

“The sun struggles up another beautiful day
And I felt glad in my own suspicious way
Despite the contradiction and confusion
Felt tragic without reason
There’s malice and there’s magic in every season

From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf
The other side of Summer
To the burning forests in the hills of Astroturf
The other side of Summerr”
