Awesome dude du jour

Posted by Robin Abrahams October 1, 2008 05:12 PM

So, get this--a guy goes for a swim with his dog, and a shark grabs the dog, and the guy punches the shark in the head and saves his dog! Is that awesome or what? What makes it even better, for me, is that Jake, the dog, looks almost exactly like Milo:

Look at that cute little bandaged-up guy! Apparently he's going to recover from his bites just fine. Greg Lenoir of Florida, you rule. I would so punch a shark that tried to eat Milo. I would beat the hell out of a shark that tried to eat Milo! I would genetically modify that shark to have kneecaps so I could break its kneecaps, that's what I would do to that shark.
