Yes, that's a picture of a shark with lasers strapped to its head. The best part: we found this image on the Wall Street Journal's website.

The WSJ blog Business Technology ran an article about all the conspiracy theories surrounding the recent clipped undersea cables in the Middle East. Who could have snipped those wires? Fishing boats? Islamic extremists? The CIA?

"It might have been sharks with laser beams on their heads," Stephan Beckert told the Journal. He researches Internet cables for TeleGeography.

Sadly, Beckert was only joking. But I give credit to the Journal for having a sense of humor.
