MARATHON, Fla. -- When rescuers started counting a large group of stranded dolphins in the Florida Keys this morning, they couldn't believe how many there were. So far, the count stands at 96.

A group of veterinarians, members of marine mammal rescue groups and volunteers are caring for the wayward rough-tooth dolphins that stranded themselves just off Marathon Key Wednesday afternoon.

The local electronic media is going apes--t over this story...praising the herculean efforts by a group of people who just want the animals to live. Meanwhile, a Florida woman faces starvation and the media thinks it is no big deal.

It is Bush's fault.

Cookout on the beach.

Most likely the lead dolphin was sick or weak, and beached himself to avoid drowning. Too bad dolphins can't talk, or he could have warned the pod, "I'm just off for a pack of cigarettes. You all go on without me."

[ORECON]

Wow, that is a real stretch.

[dennis1x]

more brain activity going on in the dolphins.

[MisterRepublican]

Give the dolphins to WeemsCo. tuna and be done with it.

[RexBeach]

Has anyone consulted George Costanza? He's a marine biologist, you know.

[Recovering_Democrat]

No, it is accurate.

[SittinYonder]

Wow, that is a real stretch.

I thought so too.

[mict42]

Give each Dolphin a feeding tube then sometime in the future just arbitrarily decide to remove them.

[SittinYonder]

I think he only deals with beached whales.

[dennis1x]

Wow, that is a real stretch.

fanatacism knows no bounds.

[RexBeach]

Ahhhh. I see.

Mahi Mahi Recipes

[sierrahome]

I got stranded in Lodi, California a couple of months ago. Since there is no "Land mammal" rescue I called AAA.

and an architect, and an importer/exporter.

[aQ_code_initiate]

Maybe Terri Schiavo's husband will take her corpse down to the beach and let the sharks have it.

[dmz]

Different animals. Mahi mahi is the dolphin fish. Unrelated to the bottle nose dolphins in question here.

But the recipes look good.

[Search4Truth]

While you are trying to save the life of a helpless women about to be starved to death, the shameless are amusing themselves.

[dmz]

I think the local media is also talking about the upcoming baseball season like it's a big deal. How come you're not drawing that comparison.

There are plenty of Terri threads for you to voice your opinions, do you really feel the need to do on a thread about DOLPHINS?
