Instead of hanging by the testicular appendages then tossing the remains to the sharks (cruelty to sharks! Eek!), I have a modest proposal...

Surely you're all familar with the "chicken guns" that engine manufacturers use to test the bird-ingestion qualities of their engines, right? Well, has anyone considered the damage that might be caused by accidental ingestion of a homo sapiens? I think this is an opportune time to study those effects by launching these bastards with extreme prejudice into the spinning compressor blades of various and sundry jet engines to study the effect on engine performance. Failing that, I've read that wood chippers make excellent chum machines...

Just my .03 Liberian, of course...your mileage may vary.
