Is Cod Dead?
Okay, credit where it's due, radio host Terry McNally came up with this question at our Hollywood Ocean Night (and my surf buddy Greg Tilman came up with "Cod it out" which I used a while ago). Lots of bad puns that night.
But here's the story to go with the headline -- WWF just reported that world catch of cod has plummeted by 70 percent in the past three decades.
The only question is why this isn't a big enough story to justify the cover of Time magazine as the original headline, "Is God Dead?" did on April 8, 1966. Come on, why not?
