How about a meet&greet with the members of the Whale Wars ship?

I enjoy the Deadliest Catch series. It makes me wish I was 18 again and could try my luck on one of these boats.

I hated Whale Wars when it first came out because of the hippies. But now I watch it with morbid fascination. The hippies on that ship have absolutely no idea what they are doing and it’s kind of funny to watch their reactions as the japanese ships harvest the whales. That and watching them I realize that some of those hippies are going to die in some mishap because they are not experienced sailors and the Southern Ocean is not a very forgiving place to capsize a zodiac or ram your vessel into another ship.

I would take all the Captains and crew of those boats in Congress over the current morons that are there now.

I agree, they know how to work very hard and are not afraid to work hard. There is not a Capt. out there who puts the safety of their ships or crews at more risk than necessary and they not do not put up with ANY BS on their ships!

Great show...that is a very good reality show. If you don’t catch you go out of business real fast because the costs are incredible to run a ship and crew like that.

I would take ANY of those Captains as President over this usurper we have now.

I like Capt. Phil.

I’m a Captain Sig fan too. Phil Harris would probably be the most fun to hang out and drink beers with but Sig is a fishing machine. He never loses sight of the reason they are out there. Making money. Why else beat yourself to a frazzle and risk your life?

They’d have to install metal detectors and full body cavity searches for Watson and his stinky crew.

A bit of googling produced the following tidbit (from an "Esquire" magazine interview with Capt. Sig Hansen):

Now that you're a bona fide reality TV star, have you thought about switching careers? Doing something less dangerous?

I'll fucking kick you off my boat. [Laughs] Fishing is what we know. The TV show won't be here in twenty years, but we will be. That's reality.

I like his attitude.

He was here in Oregon recently at a grocery store, so I guess he’s doing a tour of some sorts. I would be curious as to his thoughts on Sarah Palin. I would guess they considered her a friend in the Statehouse.

Me too. I remember him when he was a teenager. Edgar not so much - just a little shaver - and the wise ass corked me to boot. Sig's also a highliner’s highliner. Nearly away catches more fish than anyone else and has the best markets - gets the most money.

Sig's pretty much just like his old man - tough, independent and always on the fish.

The hippies on that ship have absolutely no idea what they are doing...

I love Whale Wars...and you are right...Whale Wars sums up what is wrong with liberalism in a nice 1 hr show.

They're all heart...no brains.
