Rubber duck sea invasion

2003-07-12 23:09:14.065145+02 by Shawn 0 comments

The BBC reports that thousands of rubber bath toys are expected to wash up on New England shores after falling off a ship in 1992. As Katrina and I learned during an Argosy Harbor cruise yesterday (hey, look, it's what to do around Seattle week on Flutterby), vast numbers of containers fall off cargo ships every year.
