    i swam at coney island yesterday. there were definitely a lot of jellyfish for this time of year, but i don't react too badly to the variety we have around here..... some of my buddies get welts that last for days. so to summarize my season: jellies in july, lampreys in august, rag weed in september, amoebas in october.....think i'll roll around in some poison ivy to round things off.
