Get Over It – Whales and Santa Hats

Belugas181207_468x342 Call me insensitive but this will be my “You really have to get over it” moment for the day. It appears that animal activist are all in a tizzy because a Japanese aquarium (an aquarium in Japan for the lay person) is putting Santa hats on White Whales.

“It’s a scene that brings laughter and cheers from visitors to a Japanese aquarium – two white beluga whales wearing Santa hats…. There’s even a chance to receive a wet kiss under the mistletoe from a yuletide beluga.” ~from the article

I mean shouldn’t the promise of a kiss from a whale (I wonder if they use tongue?) be enough to make even the most starch Animal rights activist happy? But no!

Now on a side not I wonder if the Activist, shoppers, and whales prefer to say Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays?…hmm… food for thought.

Here be ye a jolly link to the full article: link

Favorite Princess Bride character?

the Princess Bride

So this weekend I was wearing my awesome Inigo Montoya shirt and and it got me thinking about what an awesome movie the Princess Bride is. I then began to wonder who my favorite character was and to be honest it’s pretty hard decision. I mean really. Inigo is very cool…”Hello, my name is…” but there were so many great characters. Westley, The Impressive Clergyman (classic), Fezzik, Miracle Max… on of my favorite lines is then the Grandpa (Peter Falk) says to the Grandson (Fred Savage), “Your very smart. Shut-up.” So what do you think? I have a poll..either here or on my sidebar asking the simple question “Who is your favorite Princess Bride Character?” I have a pretty lengthy list but if you want someone listed who I left out then let me know and I will be glad to take care of it. The quotes are listed purely for the sake of laughter and reference, so enjoy.
