the life aquatic

SAN FRANCISCO — A Navy seal — actually a sea lion — took less than a minute to find a fake mine under a pier near AT&T Park.

A dolphin quickly located a terrorist lurking in the black water before another sea lion, using a device carried in its mouth, cuffed the pretend saboteur's ankle so authorities could reel him in.

The specially trained Navy Marine Mammals, based in San Diego, stole the show in a day of anti-terrorism training exercises held at ports throughout California.

More than 3,000 local, state and federal responders are participating in the scenarios that began Tuesday as part of California's annual, two-day homeland security and disaster preparedness exercises started by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2004. (via)

T Pain sans Lonely Island

in case you don't make it to the chorus at :35, this is how it go-OES:

go-O, GO-o, go-O, go-O, go-O, GO-o, go-O, go-O.
go-O, GO-o, go-O, go-O, go-O, GO-o, go-O, go-O.

I'm hoping that T-Pain spent less than 30 seconds writing this shit and that Miami spent less than $1000 paying him for it.

And yes, those bitches are wearing hooters hose.

i want that.

thx john.

2sie 2zday!

The Cove aka, the loss of my innocence

kylie, g animalz, and i went to the Angelika on Houston (not to be confused with the Angelika Houston, or Angelica Houston) for a movie experience not to be forgotten.

We saw The Cove, a documentary about a seasonal dolphin round up / slaughter in Taiji, Japan. The sexy dolphins are sold to dolphin trainers for dolphin experience exhibits or aquariums. The average looking dolphins are then taken to a secluded cove around the bend and killed by the thousands. The level of protection that the fisherman exert over the privacy of these events is staggering. They scream, intimidate, threaten, and are physically violent.

The documentary revolves around the efforts of the filmmaker and his parter in crime Ric O'Berry, the man who catapulted dolphins into public consciousness through the TV show Flipper. He was the trainer of each of the dolphins used in that show. They assemble a team of experts to infiltrate the cove and set up secret recording devices to capture the cruelty so they can expose this practice to the world (via this film ostensibly).

The footage is captivating. Dolphins are very personable, and it is horrifying to watch their

treatment in this bizarre corner of Japan. The Cove tugs at heart strings, then yanks at heart strings. I ended up with sore heart strings, but also a sense of skepticism about my own reaction. Would I have been so moved about a film about chickens or cows? Perhaps, but its it precisely the charisma that makes them popular entertainment that seems to have doomed these animals.

All in all, I give this film 11 biscuits. It is entertaining, and provides hours of food for thought as you mull over what you have just seen. just dont eat the dolphin meat because its poison.

what am i looking at?

thx bun-bun.

in honor of zoo week

even though i didnt see any dolphins while at the zoo... i want to see this movie.

gulp

why cant we get the dolphins on our side?

here is a picture of some dolphins saving a chinese ship from pirates. seriously.
