About that Orca that killed
 

Probably many have read the story about the Orca (so called killer
whale) that killed the animal trainer this week. Think about this the
next time you go swimming with dolphins or take your family to swim
with dolphins while on a cruise.....Orcas are dolphins.

Yeah, BIG ASS dolphins with huge sharp teeth and VERY LARGE
mouthes. Not sure what your point was.

Point was Orcas don't need to be kept in a container for anyone else
entertainment, anymore than dolphins or whatever.

Luxury cars now offer a great seating option for politicians.
These seats blow heated air onto their backside in the winter and
cooled air in the summer. If sold to voters, though, the car
seats
are modified to just blow smoke up the voter's rump year-round

So are Bottlenose dolphins... most of those are larger than sharks too...

I think his point is that as wild animals (unlike your friendly
neighborhood golden retriever) they COULD be VERY dangerous.

I think the Japanese fishing fleet prefers to do their slaughtering
(er... research) on wild Whales. And I think it's only one type of
whale that they hunt and eat. Minke whales IIRC.

Not exactly. Dolphins and orcas are both cetaceans. But orcas are
not dolphins. Humans and chimps are both primates, but ...

You know, I can't think of nothing finer than a fine
naked woman holding a gun. And you got all kinds of

In May, when we went whale watching in Alaska, someone asked if we would
see orcas. We were told that orcas were not whales, they were
dolphins. We did not see orcas on our excursion, but we did see some
beautiful whales.

BTW, we did see a couple of whales from the ship, the Star Princess.
