Please let me know if you want on or off the Whale Wars ping list.
Uh oh...be prepared for the flaming. Most people on FR think these guys are morons.
That's what makes the show so fun. Notice the title on my ping post.
This season couldn’t be more boring so far.
Morons or not, I have had occasions to admire their seamanship and guts. If you have not been in a big inflatable being swung outboard and down to a seething, freezing ocean from a moving ship, well let me tell you that is a walk on the wild side with a lot of ways to die or be maimed. It takes great skill and courage to launch and recover zodiacs in a fridid, windy ocean with big waves running. Period.
Just sayin'. I could care less either way.
Because of Zero’s speech I started drinking early, I won’t partake in a drinking game tonight or I’ll need to call 911 after the first commercial.
Just as well. I just got home a few minutes ago so I didn’t have time to doctor up the drinking game yet.
I’ll be watching and rooting for the hippies
I'm rooting for the ocean.
can't they say, "We at Animal Planet are exploiting retards, but don't support their views???"
God the music sounds like they are covering Princess Di’s funeral.
Please don't sue us, Toho Co., Ltd. The hippies named their boat after your most valuable intellectual property so you can't blame us.
I’m going to run play by play... Chris the helicopter guy, boo hoo, you knew what you signed up for and I think it is sad you’d abandon your family during the Holidays for Captain Coco Puffs. My mother is dead and I cherish each moment over the holidays we had as a family.
The owners of the copyright on the name Godzilla sent them a friendly letter. That's why the Gojira is now the Bridget Bardot.
"The only thing scarier than Godzilla," Watson said with a chuckle, "is Godzilla's lawyers."
Every time they show the Gojira I immediately think of South Park where they are at Sea World and unleash Godzilla and scare the Japs with spears!!!
I think Coco Puffs has finally met his match by pushing his ego overboard. You can only push so much before you hit a wall. Looks like Captain Coco Puffs has hit a wall.
I agree it's been pretty slow. But tonight has special significance. Sea Shepherd Ship Detained In Shetland Islands - $1.4m Bond Needed To Free It. Admiral Coco Puffs got his flag ship taken away. Again.
LOL, It was the Real Time Update in last weeks thread. You really should read the thread once in a while.
