Yeah, I saw that on the news this morning. Kinda sad. It was like, "Hey guys, look what you did to me. *sigh* I think I'm gonna die now."

yeah, people were trying to push it back in the water too. i'd imagine that it'd be pretty heavy.

Not to be insensitive... but they were talking about what to do with the whale carcass now. Just wondering why they don't just give it to the inuit. It's unfortunate what happened to it, but maybe giving it to the inuits will help them for food and satisfy their cultural whale eating custom without having to purposely go out and hunt whales.

I thought they went the way of the eskimo. Oh well.
They shipped the carcass away today. If i knew that it'd take so long, i would have went out there to check it out.

lol what a bunch of morons.
reminds me of that whale that was being transported in japan, and when the truck was making a left turn, the whale's guts split open and sprayed everyone on its right. actually, i should say it flooded everyone on its right.

i looked for the animated gif that i saw about it, and it was actually in taiwan, not japan.
and i couldn't find the actual video. it was pretty hilarious.
