I stumbled upon this today on YouTube. A dead whale is too big to bury. It is rotting and stinking. I know, let's try dynamite!

WHALE AND DYNAMITE

[SandRat]

[indcons]

Old one but always nice to see it :)

[saganite]

“From the heart of Hell I strike at thee”!

“Oh wait, not the dynamite”!

[mkjessup]

So, when Oprah finally checks out, we know NOT to call a local demolition crew.

[Old Sarge]

Rosie, we hardly knew ya...

[Born In America]

Nice....

[Sax]

[ozark hilljilly]

That one’s a classic...and call me a sick freak, but- it. never. gets. old.!

Oh, the humanity!

[ElkGroveDan]

That one is as old as the Internet.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Maybe that will work for Michelle’s booty and thighs!. ;) Quicker than liposuction!

[count-your-change]

On t.v. a week or so back. Still worth watching.

[robomatik]

doug, apparently your hatred of the hitlery has transformed into an affinity for the bizarre. (well hitlery is definitely bizarre too). interesting use of h.e. there.

[robomatik]

p.s. there is one keyword you used that has me roflmao!

When I was assigned to a Readiness Group in First Army, I was part of a team that traveled to Cp. Rilea in Oregon to assist members of Fifth Army in setting up some training for reservists and national guardsmen deploying to Bosnia.

One of the Oregon National Guard Officers I met was a Lieutenant Colonel who as an engineer lieutenant, actually helped blow that whale.

[GOP_Raider]

Fast forward to several decades after this attempt...

And in national news, known leftist propagandist Michael Moore died today of at least thirty artery blockages, believed to be a Guiness World Record. Since his body couldn't biodegrade, funeral officials decided to set dyanmite to his body, causing pieces of fat and cholesterol to land as far away as Winston-Salem, North Carolina, the world headquarters of Krispy Kreme.

[SandRat]

Hey Joe, we have something in common. I was assigned to Readiness Group Knox.

[CE2949BB]

May seem like a dumb idea in retrospect, but I can’t blame the officials.

I feel sorry for the whale. Yeah, it’s nuts, but... I do.

[Coachm]

reminds me of the movie Jaws

[Joe 6-pack]

Yep. Actually I was there when we went through the reorganization from Readiness groups to Training Support Battalions, Brigades and Divisions. I ETS’d from there, and signed into my last unit wearing the FUSA patch, and cleared wearing the 78th Div.

[SandRat]

That was well after my time.

[ThomasThomas]

It wasn't a completely bad idea, All the needed was

MORE DYNAMITE

[Retain Mike]

As an Oregon resident where KATU is a local TV station, I expect a moment of silence on my behalf for what is a typical action by our state Dept of Transportation. From my days as an Amphib Navy sailor, I have seen large wide tracked equipment operate in sand, so I think they could have successfully buried the creature in place.

In a related story, do not miss this Oprah Christmas sing-along - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ge7Jyxq3sPo

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

That was one whale of an explosion!

Well, what did you expect? A joke about Obama? Rosie O’Donnell or Michael Moore, maybe.

Call some Eskimos. Tell them Christmas dinner is ready.

Okay, move on. Nothing to blubber about.

[radiohead]

At least this one was on the beach. I watched a show last night about a whale that was being transported to a research lab in Taiwan. It was strapped to a flat bed truck, stopped at a light in town, when it exploded from decomposition gases. Phew! There was blood and guts all over cars, outdoor stands, and piles of intestines in the street. Good times!

[Dr. Sivana]

That newsclip from a local station demonstrated to me how much more intelligent television news used to be.

[6SJ7]

Whale + dynamite is a sure way to generate excitement. You can hear one woman just after the explosion saying...

“Here comes pieces of... whale!”

[Rocky]

The burial of Moby Dick
Was done by an Oregon hick
Who said, “TNT
Is the answer for me.
But it’s going to take more than one stick.”

[Vor Lady]

My In-Laws lived in Waldport when this happened and they knew man who owned the car that got crunched with the whale blubber.

There is no point in doing something quietly and simply when you can get your hands on explosives, lots of explosives.

[campaignPete R-CT]

Dr.,
lets stick to the political analysis and leave the exploding whales to lesser fellows.

Someone with your talent is hard to come by in many of these ranting, meandering threads.

(And I am sure you aware that the Electoral College met today.)

[Retain Mike]

Now that is a perspective I never considered. It may not have been a matter of incompetence , but satisfaction of a lifelong dream. I can take comfort in the idea that at least the supervisor may be intelligent and deceptive.

[count-your-change]

I guess I have the mind of a child that throws rocks into pond just to watch the splash.

[jellybean]

Doug, you'll enjoy Blonde Star - another oldie, but goodie. :)

[doug from upland]

That’s not nuts. I join you.

[mountn man]

...actually helped blow that whale.

Awww thats just sick.

[mountn man]

Well, what did you expect? A joke about Obama?

What do a whale and a stick of dynamite have in common?

They're both wider than Barack Obama. (except if you count them ears, commonly refered as solar sails)

[jjr153]

While this story is good, the best exploding dead whale story comes from Taiwan in Jan 2004.

Dead whale on beach. Let’s take it to the university for study. After much hassle whale is loaded on an open flatbed truck. While being transported through the center of Tainan city buildup of decomposition gasses causes whale to explode. Store windows shattered, passersby and autos covered with foul smelling whale guts and intestinal contents.

[Dr. Sivana]

It looks like you were drawn into this thread to, campaignPete. Besides, here in Illinois we are looking for creative suggestions for disposing of a great dead carcass that washed up on the shore of Lake Michigan, and made it all the way to Ravenswood.

[doug from upland]

re: leave the exploding whales to lesser fellows

I guess that was a shot across my bow?

"Think you used enough dynamite there Butch?"
