    What do ya do with a dead whale?

    I know!

    Let's blow it up!

    1970 news footage, for your viewing pleasure:

    Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

    I once saw a blue whale...

    ...it was one of the most amazing and spiritual experiences of my entire life.





    *this video is a bit like watching one blow up grandma at the funeral*

    Sometimes, when I watch stuff like this, I think very uncharitable things.

      Serves 'em right for making a spectacle of it (having blubber hit their cars).
      I'm not one to ever pray for mercy
      Or to wish on pennies in the fountain or the shrine
      But that day you know I left my money
      And I thought of you only
      All that copper glowing fine

        The problem is that you can't just leave it rotting on the beach - that's a lot of rotting meat!

        I think these days they are more likely to strip the bones for a museum (have seen this one):

        But it would be best to haul them off to deep water to feed millions of sea critters.

        P.S. I've never blown up grandma at a funeral, and it's too late now 'cause I'm out of grandmas.

            Prince was originally going to call that song "Blubber Rain."

              Based on what Thal said I am not going to watch this video because I have the intense feeling I will be devastated. If they did indeed blow up a whale I hope they rot or are rotting.

                1970. Quality is bad - you'll have to use your imagination. I think of Tremors, where they dynamite the worms...
