Sunday afternoon walking to Trader Joes, me and Mike were stopped by a crack head. He was early twenties with wild eyes, long stringy hair, and no shirt. He was also moderately buzzed. <\/p>\n
“HEY MAN WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR LEG!” He goggled at me, hairy belly bouncing.<\/p>\n

“Shark bite,” I told him.<\/p>\n
“NO WAY MAN! REALLY?? YOU WANT TO SEE A SHARK BITE! I GOT A SHARK BITE RIGHT HERE!”<\/p>\n
And he showed me. He opened his belt (“Oh, God!” I shouted), unbuttoned his trousers (“No, you don’t have to show me!” I cringed), revealing white cotton bikini cut briefs with a pattern of bright red cherries (I tried to look away but couldn’t), and torn across his thigh was the scar.
