Politics getting you down?

Maybe this will help:

Olympic Swimmer Michael Phelps to Race Against Great White Shark on 'Shark Week'

I'm not even going to read the article. The headline is too good.  I want it to happen exactly like it is happening in my head right now.

So many questions.....

How does the shark know that it's racing?

How do you get a shark to swim in a straight line?

Does the shark get a medal if it wins?

Why all the weird spacing in this post? 
Is it shark related?
