Ever hear those stories about giant crocodiles living in the sewers of New York City??

The myth says that people get them as exotic pets, but when they start to get too big, they flush them down the toilet.

That's all just a myth, as far as we know, but it's the same principal that's leading to giant goldfish in lake Tahoe!!

Apparently people must be dumping their goldfish into the lake when they don't want them anymore.

Because of all the open space and a steady supply of food, the goldfish are growing to monstrous proportions.

Some of them have almost reached 1.5 feet long!!

They are thriving and breeding rapidly, and experts worry that it may drastically change the ecosystem of the lake.

Check out the video (above) to hear how they could seriously affect the lake!

Call up the world record books!

Because this pup has definitely broken a record or two.

A new picture features a puppy with a GIANT leaf in its mouth, and we can't for the life of us comprehend how such a tiny adorable thing can hold something so big so easily.

And for anyone who claims dogs are dumb - better think again!

This pup knows the magnitude of what it has accomplished - just check out that smug look on the puppy's face.

He or she knows what they did!

And now so do you!!!

Here's what one family member said:

A picture of a giant wolf killed in Michigan has really got some people talking.

The wolf was struck by a car and killed in an accident on a highway.

A man took a picture of himself holding the dead wolf, which weighed an incredible 100-pounds and was almost as tall as him!!

Even though the death was an accident, it's sparked a debate in Michigan regarding the hunting of wolves. A new law may go into effect

Giant was one of the shows we were most looking forward to seeing during our extended stay in New York City, and it also ended up being one of our biggest letdowns.

Sigh.

They can't all be winners!

The musical, a stage adaptation of the iconic film/book, is currently playing at The Public Theater. It has music and lyrics by Michael John LaChiusa, whose Wild Party is one of our favorite musicals. Unfortunately, the songs are the Achilles heel of Giant. They are mediocre and meander. Barely memorable and not specific.

Set in Texas during the early 20th century, the musical fails to capture the sonic landscape of that era and area. What could have been a rich tapestry of Mexican, American, Mexican-American and Tejano songs instead was very average musical theater filler. Generic and uninspired.

And LaChiusa's lackluster score was not helped by the bookwriter Sybille Pearson's script. The show was long and it FELT long!

There were too many distractions and too many puzzling moments. "Why did they feel the need to do that?," we kept asking ourselves. Like when the protagonist's sister dies and then comes back in Act 2 to sing a duet with him.

REALLY????

That did not happen in the movie or book - and it didn't need to happen in the musical!

The one saving grace Giant has is its female lead. Kate Baldwin delivers a masterful and MUST-see performance in the Elizabeth Taylor role. Kate Baldwin is a superstar!!!!

We have literally seen AT LEAST over 40 shows since we've been in New York City, and Kate Baldwin in Giant delivers the most spectacular performance we have seen in anything - musical or play. She is not acting in this role. She is being. She is more than present! She's living and giving and transcending the tepid source material. If this were on Broadway, she would win the Tony!

And her voice! Oh, that voice! So exquisite! Soaring! Angelic! With bottom! And soul! STUNNING!

We recommend seeing Giant just for her performance alone! Baldwin is so good, in fact, that she makes everybody else look bad! No one rises to her level - or anywhere near!
