Whales.


Whales are beautiful, intelligent, creatures. They bring joy to us with no crazy shopping days where shop clerks get trampled to death. It's sad on dry land.

In the 1980's I would go out with the scientists from Provinceton, MA, and study the humpback whales. I won an award from the NJ Marine Sciences Consortium and Cook College for a paper I wrote one summer. I was in Law School at the time but was bored and wrote the paper Whale Watching: It May be Hazardous to their Health. I'll have to type it up and put the link on my blog.

Here's a list of whales seen up at Cape Cod this year (and previous years).
