Are they serious?

Finally back from a sales meeting in Miami and I have a highlight.  Never before has a meeting given me any excitement, but that has changed.  Am I talking about the topless women on South Beach?  Was I overcome with the beautiful weather?  Was it this 4 foot iguana I saw?iguana3

Cool yes, but no this was not the highlight.  The highlight of the meeting were these guys.crocs3

Your eyes are not deceiving you, these guys are swimming with crocs!  I found out from one of the divers that crocs are harmless if you treat them with respect.  They rarely attack a human in the water because they are comfortable in their aquatic surrounding.  This act of craziness went on for 15 minutes.  One of the divers even kissed a croc on the mouth.  I don’t know if you are like me, but I think knuckleheads that do stupid things like this, snake charming, lion taming, or bear wrestling deserve to let nature take its course once in a while.

When the performance was over I went back to my seat to resume my dinner.  Within 15 minutes sirens were heard and an ambulance rolls up.  It seems that crocs WILL attack a diver and they ARE dangerous.  I found out that shortly after the performance was over a diver got bit on the leg by a croc and was losing a massive amount of blood.  I guess the beast didn’t want to go back into his cage.  How can next years meeting top that?
