Shark bait

For The "Going down at sea competition by Strider"  
 
"Folks. This is the captain speaking. We are currently flying over South Africas Seal Island and unfortunately for everyone aboard, the plane will be going down. I repeat, the plane will be going down . We have 10 minutes left of fuel so please everyone, make those minutes count."  
 
OM my God!!! We're going down, we're going down. I need to call my husband and children.  
 
Shit,they're not answering their phones.  
 
Mother Fucker!Everyone I know is at the Chuck Liddell vs. Wanderlei Silva UFC 79 fight and they can't hear their phones over the roar of the crowd.  
 
Dear God in heaven, please forgive me for the F-Bomb. 10 hail Mary, mother of God, oh crap, I don't have time for Mary.  
 
Damn you Chuck. I only have seven minutes left before we go down.  
Seal Island? We're above Seal Island! The ring of death!!  
 
Oh god we're all gonna be shark bait.  
 
What, what, what did I ever do to deserve this?  
Was it those tampons I stole from the girl's bathroom  
machine in the 9th grade?  
 
I promise I was gonna pay them back. For god's sake THEY WERE ONLY TAMPONS!!! You know I can't use those stupid pads because they made me look like I crapped my pants..  
 
10 hail Mary, mother of God, only 3 minutes left, sorry Mary, I'm running short on time.  
 
Are those great White sharks down there? aaaawwwwwww my god!!!!  
10 hail Mary,  aaawwwww!!! They are sharks! SHAARRRRKKKKK!      
... Damn you Chuck, what were you thinking?  
 
Do I wanna drown or be eaten? Dear Lord in heaven let me drown.  
No, No, I changed my mind, being eaten is much quicker. No, no, being eaten is going to be so much more painful. Please God, let me drown!!  
 
Dammit God, why did'nt you bless me with just a little wisdom. I could really use it at a time like this. I thought you were all knowing?  
 
I'm sorry god, I'm sorry. Forgive me, for I know not what I do..What the hell did that scripture say anyways? I coulda used a better memory, so thanx for nothing God  
 
Oh God, if you'll let me live long enough to find out who wins the fight, I will never cuss or sin again.  
 
30 seconds..IS THAT A FIN?
