A 79-foot blue whale washed up on Agate Beach in Bolinas on Friday morning. The cause of death remains unknown. Scientists from the Marin Mammal Center and California Academy of Sciences identified the whale as a sub-adult female. The scientists will return Saturday to perform a full necropsy, having taken preliminary skin tissue and blubber samples Friday morning.

“Blow it up”. My first thought too. If they do, send me the link to the video.
Somebody had to post that classic! Congratulations on being first and early.
Hugh mystery? Where else would a (gas filled) dead whale go?
Washed up on a beach? Where else would it “wash up”? City Hall?
“...it’s obvious that the cause of death will no doubt be attributed to global warming/climate change.
Would you believe, excessive blubber?
How about clogged arteries?”
It was the RUSSIANS!!
The RUSSIANS I tell ya!!!
reminds me of the larson cartoon where a fly lands on a beached whale, turns to the fly next to it and says “Dibs”
It was the RUSSIANS!!
The RUSSIANS I tell ya!!!
Oh crap!
I forgot the possible Russian problem.
In that case, dig we must.
On with the necropsy.
With picks and shovels... chainsaw?
They need Queequeg and Tashtego, they know the procedure well.
“Congratulations on being first and early.”
Better lucky than good.
Tow it out about 20 miles offshore, and then let the sea creatures enjoy. No sense letting it just rot away and pollute the beach area. “Recycle” it.
“They need Queequeg and Tashtego, they know the procedure well.”
Good plan.
Queequeg will starve himself to death while building his own coffin so we won’t have to pay him and Tastego we can screw out of his pay and he won’t say Squanto about it.
She beached herself to protest Trump’s environmental policies < /librant off >
True for individual events, but not a strategy.
Oh no!
Now I’m torn between a protest of Trump or Russian involvement.
Congestive heart failure, all the salt and high weight...
Sounds natural and organic.
And Queequeg brings his own, well maintained tools.
Make work project for some educated fools to have something to do and feel usefull.
