Title: pelted with bloody chunks of whale meat and blubber Post by: ghouck on February 06, 2009, 05:44:42 PM http://portal.gci.net/news/read.php?ps=1012&rip_id=%3CD96665B00%40news.ap.org%3E&_LT=HOME_LARSDCCLM_UNEWS
Not that weird of a story, I just liked the "pelted with bloody chunks of whale meat and blubber" part. BTW, why is it that when these things happen, it just seems like the Japaneese who are interviewed are overly dramatic? "Unforgivable"? I think that quite a reach considering what is going on.

Remember reading a story a few years ago where someone decided to blow one up and parts went flying everywhere.

It does make you wonder, this being a bad film venue... Just what do you do with a dead kaiju?

There was an entry in the comments section from someone who was there when the whale was blown up and he remembere the reaction from the guy whose car was destroyed when a 500 lb chunk of blubber landed on it. "What am I going to tell my insurance agent?"
