Maybe it was just a fluke.

Yeah, the person who wrote the article is probably just full of hot air.

Your puns are sinking fast. You need to start baleen.

You're right, zgator. I'll have to think long and hard before I spout another pun in this thread.

(by the way, you beat me to the punch--I was playing around with baleen for my next volly!)

Noemon, I hope you don't have a hidden porpoise behind that comment. But I won't carp about it -- a compliment's a compliment.

Hey, guys, this isn't a tennis game. You don't have to be a clever angler to troll for compliments.

this is hysterical in and of itself...

The experience was memorable in many ways.

"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 plead not gillty!

Okay, that was bad. If someone were to lob that one at me, I'd dive for cover.

Banna, I think the part that I found funniest was the "fecal plume--aka 'poo'" comment.

Well he has to say "flatulence" and "Halitosis" rather than, "gas" and "bad breath"!

It sucks for the whale. I bet they can't ever look over at a nearby fish and say "He did it." Who would believe them?

Maybe the desire to blame it on someone else is what knits pods of whales together.

We may be on to a major scientific discovery.

You all asked for it:

That puts a whole new meaning to "Thar she blows."

That put a whole new take on my collection of Whale Songs.

Our new lamps run on whale oil and whale gas.

Quoted the whale, "I'm looking for a Tums the size of a VW Beetle"

I am feeling Belugar'd by all these fishy puns I am sea-ing. I am going to Keel over if I here one more.

The picture was obviously digitally enhanced on a com-pooh-ter. The Irish research team of Sean O'Cean and Ima O'Ver-Board have proved it with wave after wave of detailed examination. "Something smelled odd about this research so we sank into the source of thier findings and dug out the dirt. Its all a bunch of whale @$@#" said O'Cean.

Let's hope Dan's never shellfish and won't share his puns with us.

If we ever suspect that he's holding out on us, we could always apply a little mussel and force him to tell us his puns.

Of course then he might get a bit crabby.

[Edit--changed the second use of the word "little" to "bit". No puns were harmed in the editing of this post]
