Thar She Blows!

You might find this story upsetting:
A Japanese whaling fleet will set sail Sunday for the Antarctic Ocean, the Fisheries Agency said, on an expedition set to enrage environmentalists by expanding the hunt to famed humpback whales. Japan kills more than 1,000 whales a year in the Antarctic and also the Pacific Ocean, causing bitter rows with mostly Western nations which call the hunt barbaric. Japan plans this year to expand the catch to include 50 humpback whales, which are popular with whale watchers for their songs and acrobatic displays.
I am of the opinion that only animals of low intelligence should be eaten -- such as cattle, chickens, turkeys, deer, cats and Democrats.

They probably say the same about you. ;)

This is sad. Whales are very, very intelligent and you are right about eating only low intelligence creatures. Except, of course, cats and democrats. Cats are too smart to qualify and democrats would most likely taste bad.

Hmmm, I forgot about how bitter Democrats are.

Anchovies are stupid and taste good, too.
