Lost luggage and snakeheads

The airlines have lost our luggage 2x. Once, in England for 4 h and once in Fla for 50 h. the second was worse,  of course.
Now, comes Trakdot. For 65 dollars you can activate the service and for $13 a year you can track the palm sized device     ( in your luggage ).
The invasion is going strong. The 2 species of snakehead fish from Asia are still spreading through the watersheds of northern states, more specifically the Potomac basin and the Ohio valley.
In the Baltimore area they've started serving snakehead as an entree.
The ' snake ' is supposed to taste like chicken and is delicious.
Snakeheads are top predators for anything that goes into the water.
They quickly dominate the food chain and eliminate other species.
The subsequent problem may be commercial raising of snakeheads to fulfill a market demand. Oops,' Accidental Release of Snakeheads Feared '
The Python Challenge. Fla hopes to train up to 400 snake handlers to harvest pythons which have grown big and plentiful.
On another front oranges are earlier and smaller. Figures, small citrus -big snakes.
weather warm and sultry w/ breezes. Too fine.
