Whales got free care by entering illegally
San Jose Mercury News ^ | 6/2/07 | Bert Taddei

The wayward whales [Delta and Dawn] are presumably gone, but the reason they entered California waters is still unknown. My thinking is they were injured before they entered California, stayed until they were injected with antibiotics, then returned to the ocean.

Whales are intelligent animals, and they heard if they entered California illegally, they would get free medical care. It works.

Especially intriguing is the idea of luring the illegals out to sea, and then abandoning them to their fate.

It's SHAMnesty you whales...not SHAMUnesty....

Try pulling this illegal entry stunt in Alaskan rivers and the Inuits/Eskimos would be slicing up your blubber by now.

But the whales eventually went home. I think they are more like the “health care tourists” we see from ‘Canada, Europe and other places that practice Hillary Care.

Got a login screen and the prompt:

Why doesn’t the Murkey like me? Could it be the letter I wrote when I canceled my subscription?

Mother whale: O.K., it’s probably safe for us to return to open oceans now.

Baby whale: You think so, Mom. What about the pods of killer whales we were fleeing from?

Mother whale: Experience tells me they’re probably gone by now. Plus we’ve done our little p.r. skit that we talked with the other humpbacks about doing.

Baby whale: You mean the schtick where we let the humans think we’re lost, so we can get a gauge on where their current humanity is towards us?

Mother whale: Right. It’s always a risky task, but someone has to do it.

Baby whale: You really think they thought we were “lost?” How the hell can we get lost? We swim thousands of miles every year from one end of the earth to the other?

Mother whale: Watch your whale song, jr, and yes, these humans believe they are far superior to us.

Baby whale: But even as an infant, my brain is several times as large as theirs, do they really think I need all these brains to filter krill?

Mother whale: They have incredible egos, my dear, especilly the democrats. Those are the humans with the smallest amount of working brain area.

Baby whale: Are they the ones on the tour boats that try to reach out and pet us?

Mother whale: Yeah, mostly.

They were intending to travel to Cuba (Kuba) but became miffed when they didn’t receive priority passage through the Panama Canal.

Obviously the missing Saudi student managed to steal one of our new missile defense systems, hide it under the whales and heard them to the highest bidder. Uncovering this ingenius plot just plain wore me out...time to take off my heavy tinfoil hat with flat-screen monitor and industrial strength antenna.
