Whale Wars!

Have you ever seen Whale Wars? It was on Animal Planet... Depending on your point of view, they are Hippies or a Terrorist Group. (which is too funny) Anyways back on topic. These Hippies have old whaling ships that they use to harass the Japanese Whaling ships.



In all the seasons of the show they have really done nothing except annoy the Japanese. This is why Michael and I love the show. Every episode was some new idea, from shooting red paint at the whaling ships (symbolizing blood) to throwing stinky acid concoctions and making a Prop Foul-er (basicly a chain/rope combination that gets caught up in their propellers) Sadly all attempts never really paned out....

To get to the point of this post: They actually did it! The Japanese have announced that they have temporarily canceled the whaling season...

Now what are those Hippies gonna do...?  ;)

Here is the link.
