Singing might help whales find themselves...


"In the complex underwater habitats where humpbacks live, figuring out where other whales are, just by listening, can prove quite challenging. Mercado suggests that singers can improve their ability to pinpoint other whales by learning their songs. By comparing incoming sounds that were likely degraded by journeying through the ocean with memories of pristine versions of those sounds, the whales can use any distortion they hear to judge the distance the sound has traveled."

They really are amazing creatures!!

Why do whales sing?

Because they can!

"Singing might help whales find themselves"

I never knew they were lost!! LOL LOL

Cheaper than therapy

Don't let Dr. Phil hear that...

Thank you. Thank you.

Good idea for a new show...my mother is in love with singing whales and wants to have their babies...

whale song is so beautiful. the recordings are so soothing.

i sing. not that i'm comparing myself to a whale, but i sing. i sang the theme song to my show one season. i sang it. me. i did.

I'm sorry. Did you have a question dear? As a former prosecutor I'm usually the one asking, but I love to answer too. Thank you. Thank you.

I once rode a whale.

But, seriously, the songs of the humpback whale are just one of the treasures of nature. I'm the most important treasure, of course, but the humpback whale songs come in a close fourth place.

It is so wrong to talk about Tyra like this!

oooooooooo, snap!

Listen up, Kelly. Unless you like going to work with two black eyes and a broken leg, you better turn your bony bum around and walk out the door. Out the door, Kelly. Don't make me get up from the judge's table.

but tyra, you could show us how that walk is supposed to be done. since, according to you, you were and are the ULTIMATE model and all models should strive to be just like you - shallow, fake, and with those nasty extensions...

How's that workin' for ya?

:rocks head back and forth:

OpRaH, don't be hatin' cause the only modeling you could pull off is published in a magazine you conveniently OWN! How many other magazines routinely ask you to grace their cover, honey? Hmmm?!?! I'm hearing a big old NONE. So before you be gettin' up in my kool-aid and riding my back about how to behave in public, on TV or in the dressing room, you better recognize that nations crumbled and were erected around me. Me, Oprah. Not you. ME.

:roundhouse snaps in the air:

oh. my. cod. you and your roundhouse snap getting all up in my bidness.... i will have you know, miss thang, that i am on at least 2 other magazine covers this month. when, sista gurl, was the last time you were on a cover - and i don't mean thos fake ones (no, THIS TIME, i'm not referring to your "breasts") you have plastered all over the ANTM set. big head much??

I did some modeling on the show a little while back and I think I was quite good.

on your own show?

Oh that reminded me of my father-in-law! Some friend of the family was getting divorced and the reason the wife gave was that she had to "find herself". Old Dad, shaking his head in disgust said, "Find herself? What the hey, SHE'S RIGHT THERE!"

I don't feel that question deserves an answer, O. But, if you ever come out of your self-loving state, I'd be happy to invite you over to look at all the magazine covers I've framed and placed throughout my house. Of course, security would need to be tightened for that.

I think the topic was singing whales here. Please try to stick to the subject at hand or just call me and we'll discuss!

who cares.... obviously not Nancy Grace, since she neglected to input her own opinion into the post
I mean come on... how are you gonna post a story and then say ok.... discuss, like you are a freakin radio Disc Jokcey!!!!!!!


I have had it with the donwfall of BOL thanks to all of this single link thread posting!!!

Sue, that's just Oprah for you. She can stand not having everyone bowing down to her for even 5 seconds. I mean, shut to front door already, sweetie!

I'm sorry Rosie........... YOU ARE THE FATHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I figure whales sing because they can't play the guitar.
