a long, long time ago...(hope you don't mind Vader)

when lord vader mentioned "blue whale" in the "rant" thread i felt the urge to read some of the very old threads. i want to share two important results of my inquiry:

Jesus christ that whale looks friggen EVIL!

(Looks like he is harpooned too, LOL)

Reminds me of the snake slide at the Wyndham Safari Disney Hotel in Orlando, Florida.

Stupid snake tube slide into the pool, at the end, where the snake head was and you slide out, had a long rubber tongue. Silly me, I use to try and slap it on my way down. Turns out it was reinforced with metal wires that were poking at the edges. Razored my hands like a shredder.

Never trust animals that look fun and inviting.

Ever.


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

Vader looks like fun and somewhat inviting....erm, on second thoughts......I think I should back away from the keyboard now before I put my foot in it.

i already heard about lost theeth and broken bones because of dangerous slides but that sounds really even more painful

and libelous, frankly. Particularly in the states!

[EDIT] Libelous is the wrong word. mmmm, maybe litigable

The REAL blue whale's tongue thread was in what - 2001? It's older than this (or the previous) incarnation of the board and it dates back to a time without mods, tags, avatars and author's rights.

REHAB IS FOR QUITTERS

jup, sadly the original blue whale got lost in a site crash in 2001. the whale i posted is the best i could find.
i laughed a lot when reading the old posts (~2002), the good old days were awesome. but one question remains: what was the original blue whale's tongue thread about? there are plenty of references but no explanation...

The original blue whale tongue thread was about ... a blue whale tongue - that it has the weight of an African elephant. And that the heart has the size of a VW Beetle. And that rats can live longer without water than camels. And something about jellyfish ... actually all just very random.

random posts are the best

At that time posting in a thread didn't bring it back up - everything inevitably drifted towards the oblivion of "2nd page". To have a thread with lots of posts it had to grow fast before it dropped over the edge. Yup, the world was a disk back then. And now I wait for LS. to come and say "I remember when this all was fields ...".
