Choose an animal. Write about it!

I choose...sharks! Duh. What else would I write about for this post?

Okay, so quick aside: The Shark Agenda (the name) came about because of my nickname Vanessa Shark. I was knighted with this nickname in high school. I believe I was in 10th or 11th grade and I was at lunch with my friends. One of those friends' boyfriend showed up during our lunch period, high as a cloud. He started spouting off nonsense about what we "looked" like. One of my friends looked like a "choo choo train" and the other looked like a "tiny elf." I looked like a shark because of my sharp teeth and my "dead eyes." Thanks, dude!

Anyway, ever since then I've loved the nickname and have become completely enamored with sharks. So I decided to a fun post about different types of sharks I like!

I think I'll end this fascinating shark post with my favorite quote:

"There were sharks before there were dinosaurs, and the reason sharks are still in the ocean is that nothing is better at being a shark than a shark."

Thank you, Douglas Adams, for those wise words.
