Panty waist frogs and tree huggers - I hope we strap "frikkin lasers" on the Dolphin's heads just to cheese 'em off even more.

You get very poor results from smart animals if they don't enjoy what they are doing. Exactly. What's more, smart animals are BORED unless they are doing something that's fun and challenging. My Lab has to have a job to do, or she goes nuts. When she's working away at her agility training, or retrieving, she's grinning and that ol' otter tail is just swinging back and forth. A busy dog is a happy dog, and I bet the same thing goes for Flipper.

Along that same vein, I wonder what the think about dope/explosives sniffing dogs?
Never mind...One good thing about freaks. Their predictability.

I understand that they are organizing "dolphin shields", even as we speak.
To: HAL9000
I agree with PETA here.
I think we should be "training" war protestors, PETA activists and Hollywood Movie Stars to do this instead.
Of course, they can't hold their breath as long as dolphins and sea lions, but losing a few of them would improve the air quality in most major U.S. cities.

Rush is reporting that the AWOL dolphin has once again reported for duty. Question: Can a dolphin become a SEAL?
To: HAL9000
I heard a report that the Iraqis are training sharks to attack the dolphins.

The potential loss of a dolphin versus thousands of human lives and billions of dollars for a single Navy ship...definitely unfair and cruel to dolphins...
Hey, did you ever notice that tuna just doesnt taste as good since it all became dolphin safe?
To: spiffy
A dolphin can kill a shark, didn't you see that Flipper episode?

Yeah, but Flipper was one exceptional dolphin. ...no one, you see, is smarter than he...
To: HAL9000
Found it interesting that some of the dolphins are trained to find enemy frogmen and then attack them with a contact piece put over their bottle-nose that discharges a .45 caliber cartridge into the enemy diver.
To: Marc Poor
Cool. Thanks for the update. I hope he's not denied any special fish rations for being AWOL?
