Wow, i'm shocked! You've had us all fooled thinking you were a teacher but in actuality, you've been crossing the globe for years "experiencing" whale penis. Maybe the next one will be more impressive for you. Happy hunting!! :wavey: :D





I'm still laughing at this article....they had to "experience" the whale penis....good lord...what's the world coming to? We totally talked about it at the dinner table though...lol :laugh:

DownOnRodeo 01-30-2004 07:44 PM

It was funny... On our news they showed that story, then followed it up with the 'cutesy' story of some rabbit that has somehow wandered into the Brisbane CBD and goes between office building cafeterias and restaurants to get fed. As they said, everyone is more than happy to befirend and feed this ever-expanding rabbit.

So I imagined the news tomorrow: 'Rabbit Explodes Down Main Street'.

:laugh:

Sheebus (you've rubbed off, Marissa). I think I'm the onyl one who finds this depressing! I think it's tragic that the whale even died in the first place.

It is quite funny when you put it in those terms, though. :laugh: But I love animals so much and just find it sad. :distress:

DrummerDeanna 01-30-2004 11:41 PM

How sad/gross/and oddly amusing (the penis factor anyway)...I also feel bad that a whale died...I love whales..they're amazing animals.

Hey, if you're gonna say I'm looking for them, all's fair in the Love & War Mix-Down.:nod:

I had it coming, I had it coming, I only have myself to blame.... :nod: (you've never seen Chicago, you won't get that, but that is where it's from)

Definately one of the more interesting tangents.

This calls for a moment of silence for the dead whale....and it's penis....


......


No, it's 3:34 am. Says me. THAT is the correct time. :nod:

I've lived in Chicago, and I know how to blame you, so I'm covered, thanks.


Getting back to the thread, I admit it's not as bad as the whale in many ways (though in terms of animal cruelty it's worse), but before I judge the guys for going to visit that thing, I have to remember that we're the country that gave the world that goat/unicorn story twenty years ago. Anybody else remember that?

The circus opened, publicizing that it had a unicorn when the thing was really a goat with a surgically grafted horn. The press made this the top story :rolleyes: & animal rights groups demanded to see the poor creature. The whole thing was farcical. The ASPCA reps in the audience said it looked like a goat with a horn, so, as Linda Ellerbee describes it:

"Naturally, the A.S.P.C.A. demanded to examine the goat, and, naturally, the circus said that was not possible since it was a unicorn and not a goat. The A.S.P.C.A. winked at the audience to this television passion play, and asked the cicus where it had found this 'unicorn' The circus told the A.S.P.C.A. it really couldn't say; the unicorn just sort of showed up one day.

" Things were cooking now. Local television stations hovered, ready, one felt, to interrupt regularly scheduled programming if an 'exclusive' could be guaranteed. One night, on the six o'clock news, a reporter interviewed an eight-year-old girl who stated with authority that it could NOT be a unicorn because everyone knew a unicorn was a HORSE, for heaven's sake, and not a goat. How dumb could you get?

"A series of interviews with men and women 'on the street' followed. Was the child perhaps right? Did it have to be a horse to be a unicorn? Could a goat be one?

" Think of it. Full-grown human beings appeared on television to debate how an animal THAT DID NOT EXIST should look, properly speaking. Finally, as you would expect, the federal government was called to render judgment. Some GS-12 from the Department of Agriculture was made to fly up from Washington and examine the beast. He announced afterward that the animal was in good health and, as best he could tell, reasonably content. It was, however, a goat - UNLESS YOU WANTED TO CALL IT A UNICORN. Now, that is what I call taking a firm stand, and I sure hope the fellow intends to leave Washington and run for the Senate sometime soon, providing no eight-year-old girls take him on in the primary.

"During the course of the Great New York Unicorn Scare, the circus took out advertisements in THE NEW YORK TIMES, advising all citizens that the fogies of this world were once again out to destroy magic, Santa Claus, and the Constitution. To no one's surprise, the circus, with its unicorn, quickly became the hottest ticket in town.

" Then the circus moved on, its purse overflowing, its reputation renewed, its very case proven once more."

:rolleyes: :(

it's not like i don't like animals (i hate only dogs and pandas really), but i don't think there's any difference between a whale to a chicken or the next cow to be eaten at mcdonald's and provide us all with cool leather jackets in the process. :D

i reckon that an animal who's death resulted so much amusement for so many people, didn't exactly die for no reason.

Which is why I've protested against KFC, McDonalds, and Wendys. ;)

And don't even get me started on hunting.

If you eat any kind of meat (or fish for that matter), don't get me started on hunting :cool: We had a slaughterhouse on our land. Let me just say being killed unknowingly in the wild is FAR preferable and humane. :cool: If you do not believe me, go to a slaughterhouse one time.

Interestingly, I love the argument that plants have rights too :rolleyes: I am serious. I had this crazy liberal friend in college who, along with other crazy people :laugh: , used to go off about how we should not eat plants or animnals. I was like, well - talk to mother nature :laugh:

I've stopped eating meat and I think hunting is absolutely despicable. It serves no purpose and, I'm sorry, being killed unknowingly and out of the blue isn't humane; anyone who hunts is not humane, for that matter. Slaughterhouses? I get sick to my stomach when I even see the word; it brings me to tears.

As for plants? What in the hell did your friend eat?! :confused: :laugh:

I never really got that out of my friend. They would eat this powder stuff with water. :laugh:

As for animals, including fish, as a food source - I agree, it is horrifying. It sort of taps into that whole Darwinian thing of the strongest survive, etc. I mean human teeth were designed to eat meat or at least they became that way over time. Plus, a meat eating animal is not unnatural as many exist, etc. Yet, humans have brains and can feel remorse, etc. So, it seems like they should realize that plants do not, we assume, feel being cut down like an animal fees being stuck and then bleeding to death (again hunting is far more humane in my book) or fish having their guts ripped out while alive or being boiled to death while alive. Yet, we as a whole still eat meat and fish without remorse.

I had this silly dream once where I was forced to eat one of my dogs because I had no food. It was just horrifying but in the dream I had to do it to survive.

Yet, I still eat meat - so go figure.

As for hunting and fishing, these are not necessary in our society as game is grown in usually horrible conditions and then slaughtered. My problem with non-hunted meat or fish is the animals clearly know what is going on and usually watch until it is their turn. That is why I say hunting is more humane. At least that way, the animal has a few good years in its natural habitat and then a few moments of unexpected pain. But, I agree, all animal killing is horrible. Yet - I eat meat, fish, etc. Also, I just can't stomach a world where you are forced to buy everything from the store and are prohibited from catching your own prey in the wild. That is too big brother for me and smacks of "soylant green" :cool:
