WEIRD BUT TRUE
By MARSHA KRANES, Wire Services
November 15, 2006 -- Holy humming mammal!
Dolphins at Disney's Epcot Center were recently taught to "sing" the theme song from the "Batman" TV series - a stunning development that scientists hailed as the first time a mammal other than a human showed it can recognize and recreate voice rhythms.

Hmmmmmm....
I think that there has been a link before between "Flipper" the dolphin and the dynamic duo.
Where did I see that at before?

Batman? Sheesh.
Get back to me when they can do something musically worthy like singing Wooly Bully or Rama Lama Ding Dong.

Must have been hard for the Dolphins to memorize the lyrics to that song. Let's see...
Batman.
Batman.
Batman.
Batman.
Batman, Batman, Batman.
Na na na na na na na na, na na na na na, BAT-MAN!

Admit it. You've been anxiously waiting since 2004, just to see if the right news article would ever be written that would allow you to juxtapose those two photos in such a manner. Month upon month, you pored over the news sites, silently pleading with God to please, PLEASE just inspire one author to conflate the two topics.
And now, your long wait is over. What will you do NOW?

With a pathetic 3-6 win loss record at this point in the 2006 football season I suppose if I was the Dolphins I'd be doing something to distract the critics too
To: DogByte6RER
Now maybe they can work on the theme to Hawaii 5-0...

Start them off with Louie Louie. And then work them up to Wild Thing. And then La Bamba, and then Twist and Shout.
Have a regular dance party goin' on...

Big deal, literally millions of frogs have learned to sing La Marseillaise.
