It was Iceland, thank you very much :)

The theme song to the A-team is in an epic duel with "owner of a lonely heart" for domination over my brain right now...

You wound me to the quick, Rex. I thought you were going to set those barbaric Icelnders right, not join them in their evil ways.

 

 

May King Triton have mercy on your soul. : :crying

baleen or sperm?

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Nov 21, 2006 -> 03:56 PM)
baleen or sperm?

 

If this is a legitimate question (rather than a bad joke), the answer is baleen, almost certainly minke. Iceland is planning on taking 38 of them this year as they resume whaling to the dismay of the rest of the world outside of japan and Norway. Japanese "scientific" whaling has also legally taken fin and sei whales, and has illegally taken humpback and even blue whales according to DNA recon done on whalemeat products purchased at market.

 

As far as I know only a few indiginous peoples hunt toothed whales. The Faroe islanders (an oceanic atoll between Iceland and Scotland) still take pilot whales on a sustencence scale, and some North American Inuit tribes take beluga. There's 100 ice-trapped beluga being taken by an Inuit village at this moment, as a matter of fact.

Correct, Iceland is now fully admitting to commercial whaling, but strictly limiting the quota to between 30 and 40 whales. (30 minke and 9 fin). There are approximately 44,000 Minke Whales in Icelandic waters.

 

39 whales a year is a sustainable harvest of one of the few natural resources that Iceland has available to it to feed its population. And it was delicious.

DVD+ is supposed to be better because it came out after -. They'll play on most DVD players. I have used both for burning....uh...completely legal movies.... and never had a problem.

Why was the PS3 thread closed?

sounds like a conspiracy to me....

Got a new cat today. Told Anne, my friend, that she could name it. She named it Lina, as in, Felina. Just Lina, though. It's a cute cat. It's a girl. Lina is tiny. Maybe six months. Runt and Greyback reacted different to her. Greyback was very friendly, just wanting to smell her. Runt hissed. I'd never heard Runt hiss before. I've never seen Runt as mad as she is today. I've seen her mad and jealous, like when Anne comes over, but not like this. Gave Lina a shower today, and I'll give her another so as to clean her feet because she still mildly stinks. That's what happens when you're abandoned and live in your own feces in a closet for a few weeks.

 

Good cat. Gotta protect her, though, but I'm tired. I think I'm going to bed way early tonight.

I agreed to watch my brother's dog, who doesn't exactly get along with my dog, this weekend. (We never do Thanksgiving in my family until Sunday because multiple members of the fam work in industries that don't care that a Thursday in November is a holiday, but they can always request the Sunday after it off.)

 

He's off hunting. I don't do hunting.

 

So I've spent the past 5 hours trying to keep two dogs from killing each other. I didn't even remember that tonight is the best bar night of the year. I can't believe I'm giving up getting laid for this.

 

He owes me one hell of a Christmas gift.

I have no idea. I just said that because no one from admin has said anything yet. That's what we get when we depend upon a fascist regime...we need a democratic state of elected officials.

Vote for PA for President of Soxtalk :lol:

Greyback makes me think of Grebeck which makes me think of Craig Grebeck which makes me think if I ever have a pet cat (not likely) I'll name it after a Sox middle infielder from the nineties.

 

Here Grebeck!!

 

Here Snopek!!

 

Here Paco!!

 

I kinda like that last one.

I friend of mine has a Boston Terrier named Paco. I doubt it's named for the middle infielder, this Paco can catch anything.
