Dang Udo,

I know if it was you and me out on that boat that we would have had some tasty steaks that night.

Had no idea this was shown previously on Nomad. This was just shown on ABC news.
(I guess it must be a re-run)
My sincerest apologies, Doug!

Udo, I know this has been posted a few times as I have seen it at least 3 times, but you know what, not everyone has, sometimes really good stuff does slip by even the most observant eye.
For me anyway, I am grateful to be brought back once again in to this whale tale, it does my heart good to see such giant positive energy.
After all, we do get a lot of rehashing of the same ol stuff, you know, Cartel, Trusting Medical treatment, corrupt cops in Constitution, Skeet's doper rants lunch at Mama Espinoza's, etc.. anyway, I will happily come back and watch the whale tail anytime!

Whale Tale Tonight


Y Manana.

Encore TV "Moby Dick" with William Hurt.

A different take, but I've heard that the Whale still wins.

Which, should make the ECO-Freaks happy.

Live Whale. Dead People.

I'm with Eli on this. I missed it first time 'round and am ever so pleased on getting to see the video now. Way better than another barrage of truck pix.;D:biggrin:

Udo, Nothing wrong with a repeat, I've done it
a time or 2, a couple yrs. back, there was a story
of a Sperm Whale
with some netting on it off of Guaymas, a good
Samaritan jumped in, trying to cut the net away,
after some success, the Whale sounded with the
guys foot caught in the netting, I imagine there was
a bit of adrenalin spike, lucky for the guy his foot
came loose after a descent of 20' or so

Outside of the oft seen pot stirring cries for attention by a malcontent, I am salute the theme of this thread that even if something has been posted before, there are some who missed it and no reason to diss the person who posted. It is a great story and worthy of an extra view or two.

A GREAT Whale Tale


Part one, anyway.

Great performance by William Hurt. Dittos Ethan Hawke. All-Around in fact.

The Whale Kill sequence was exciting. A Wild Ride. Made it look like a lot of fun.

Moby got in his licks, though.

And, we KNOW, he gets the last laugh out his spout.

Tonight.

A don't miss.
