Bus-size squid washes up on beach

That's what the headline on CNN said. So I clicked in anticipation. Finally! Evidence of the Jules Verne's ship-devouring behemoths of the deep, long suspected by marine biologists to lurk in the shadowy depths. Hurry! Damn slow internet connection. Then... the first sentence: "A squid as long as a bus and weighing 550 pounds washed up on an Australian beach, officials said Wednesday."

And the picture: two men clearly larger than the squid. Bus sized? You can't even fit these 2 in the squid, you friggin sensationalist science reporter!
