Islandcool 0 #1 March 17, 2004 Man sometimes I just don't know about our media. http://dsc.discovery.com/news/briefs/20030825/whalegas.html?ct=8795.18068934889 "The general rule that flatulence is worse than halitosis is certainly also true for whales," said Gales, who had to flee the bow of the ship shortly after the whale's natural release was observed, and smelled. I'm sure it rivaled anything you have smelled on the way to altitude. Ed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gawain 0 #2 March 17, 2004 Bwhaaahaaahaa! I love the caption for the larger picture " ... — the large circle in the water is indeed the physical eruption of the whale's flatulence." So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

happythoughts 0 #5 March 17, 2004 Manatees are like that too. If you live near a seawall, they will come up and drink fresh water from a garden hose. I don't know why, but they love it. The friendly ones like a good scratching too. If they get too relaxed though, they can fog out a square acre. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #7 March 17, 2004 Ah, the internet. Billions of dollars of infrastructure and countless years of work spent to link the societies of the world. People have the ability to span the globe to communicate values, beauty, intellect, and whale farts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
