Just saw this on Facebook... and as much as her... ummmmm... "bouyancy control device" seems to be in quite an excellent... ummmm... shape I took a peek at the whole pageant; it's strange that there are no dive-related brands or resorts involved, there's no support from even DENR, DOT or...

about 4-8" long hollow and translucent... literally like a discarded rubber (but there were literally hundreds yesterday so i highly doubt a ship containing used rubbers sank around the bend) would have confirmed its jellyfish-ness BUT it's not soft and squishy...it's hard (didn't touch it as...
