morning all. I almost got the 911 out, one more day of arranging the garage and the other cars to free it up.

Jim & Brent, cool.

There was a recent Nature or Nova special on dolphins. They has some really cool robots that they called spy cams. The think looked like a dolphin or squid and the dolphins were not concerned with the cameras. They had some really cool footage.

I did nothing of consequence. We just happened to have a way to share it.

We saw maybe 40-50 dolphins that day while we were out sailing. Other days, we're lucky to see any. I'd love to see a whale migrating up the coast while we're sailing, but we've only been able to see them from the whale watching boats. I guess whales only show themselves if we part with some of our cash.

On our Alaska cruise a few years back we saw several whales and even killer whales. It was funny is one side of the ship would see them and everyone ran to that side and a few minutes later they were on the other side. We saw some blue whales on our Hawaii cruise between Maui and Oahu and over by Kauai.

Glen they are called orcas. Not very many in Washington call them killer whales.

Ah, so they hired a PR firm. I get it.

As I understand they are the largest of the dolphins and not whales. They hunt and eat seal lions, dolphins, penguins or any critter they can kill and eat, even baby whales.

Just for you for being declared sensitive and empathetic and not just pathetic.

Blazing Saddles is such a great movie. So many lines can never be repeated in another new movie.

Good Hump day morning. It is a cool 49 degrees here. It is about to get warm however.

Best is to just not reply or interact with snowflakes. Don't wanna make em have a meltdown.
