" Cassell, photographed in Santa Rosalía, Mexico, says his first Humboldt (squid) encounter was like "being in a barroom brawl.

Squid are gentle kind creatures, that never hack into others' computers or engage in ballroom brawls.
That said, never anger a squid! They are slow to anger, but every fight is to the death! Probably because they taste so good to such a wide bio-diversity of creatures.

the squid are about 20 cm long, and the sacs are the same size, ok...
cut one of the sacs into quarters, get a ball of sticky sushi rice around it, wrap with a strip of nori, a little dash of rice vinegar and a bit of wasabi on top and serve it up!

@Ted - "bar room" not "ball room", though the latter did paint an interesting mental picture ;-)

It made a popular song, too. (http://www.webfitz.com/lyrics/Lyrics/1975/161975.html)

Rob,
You're right, I meant "Bar room."
Hmmm, ballroom squid dancing - no doubt a black tie event!
