 Hey baby, if I said you had a beautiful body would you hold it against me?  Strange things can happen if you go in the water, particularly if you’re a bikini-clad girl in horror and sci-fi movies. If the piranhas… er, piranha don’t get you, the giant octopi… um, octopusses will. Above and below we have images glorifying one of filmdom's most beloved creatures—the slimy aquatic horror. These monsters typically either tear you to ribbons or, sometimes, impregnate you with their mutant progeny. But horndogs from the depths are notoriously inscrutable, which means it’s tough to discern at first glance whether they intend to rend you limb from limb, or simply take you back to their lair, put on a Marvin Gaye record, and give you some seriously deep dicking. Our advice—when in doubt, kick him in the ink sac. You can always apologize later if you need to.

The headlines that mattered yesteryear.
1936—Crystal Palace Gutted by Fire
In London, the landmark structure Crystal Palace, a 900,000 square foot glass and steel exhibition hall erected in 1851, is destroyed by fire. The Palace had been moved once and fallen into disrepair, and at the time of the fire was not in use. Two water towers survived the blaze, but these were later demolished, leaving no remnants of the original structure. 1963—Warren Commission Formed
U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson establishes the Warren Commission to investigate the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. However the long report that is finally issued does little to settle questions about the assassination, and today surveys show that only a small minority of Americans agree with the Commission's conclusions. 1942—Nightclub Fire Kills Hundreds
In Boston, Massachusetts, a fire in the fashionable Cocoanut Grove nightclub kills 492 people. Patrons were unable to escape when the fire began because the exits immediately became blocked with panicked people, and other possible exits were welded shut or boarded up. The fire led to a reform of fire codes and safety standards across the country, and the club's owner, Barney Welansky, who had boasted of his ties to the Mafia and to Boston Mayor Maurice J. Tobin, was eventually found guilty of involuntary manslaughter.
