DescriptionClose-up view of a fish tank. In teh background is a battleship on the water. In the fish tank is a boat with a huge arm reaching out of it. A bomb pierces the front and a palm tree sits on the back deck. On the pebbled bottom of the tank, in front of the boat is the figurine of a woman sitting on a suitcase; behind that is the end of a golf club.
