PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - Police in Seaside, Ore., are warning beach crowds to watch out for sharks.Police officers on Sunday drove up and down the beach and used loudspeakers to announce a shark sighting.

Lt. Dave Ham says lifeguards saw a distinctive dorsal fin on Sunday and a lifeguard came across a porpoise Saturday that had been bitten up.

The beach was not closed.Ham says officials at the Seaside aquarium told him warm waters have moved closer to shore, brining in seals and porpoises, which attract sharks.

The porpoise was tasty, by the way.

(Note to self: find way to hide stupid dorsal fin... it keeps giving you away)

    I don't know. I didn't wear them on saturday. It's obvious they saw my dorsal fin when I was trying to get some good pictures of the Tillamook Lighthouse.

  3. They wouldn't have noticed it if you hadn't given yourself away with that ominous music playing as you approached.

    Next time, turn it down. Duh.

  5. Maybe you should play something more gangsta, heavy on the subwoofer. They'd look everywhere for a car, and you'd slip right by.
