Cool story!

Whales aren’t stupid.

True story: Many years ago, I was sort of watching a National Geographic show while cleaning up the kitchen after dinner. The part about whale um, reproduction, came along, and I looked up to see male whale um, you know — parts — towering up out of the ocean like New York skyscrapers. I was shocked!

My husband was doing some paperwork in the home pffice, so I pressed the intercom button and said “You gotta come see this! Whale weenies five storeys tall!”

Little did I know, the intercom also blasted from the rear deck and was heard by our neighbors hosting a big backyard barbeque. Oops!

I never lived it down, but at least the neighbors and their guests had a sense of humor (and yes, rushed inside to see the sights on the TV at the time).
