Al, a whale spotted frolicking that predates the Titanic.

She probably the one who pushed the iceberg into the great ship, the bad tempered beast. No doubt the the granddaughter of the great white whale that rammed the Essex and inspired "Moby Dick". Load up the double hulled war canoe, it's off to the whaling grounds to put an end to great leviathans once and for all.

Bring plenty of Spam, it's worth it's weight in gold in the Pacific Islands. We should be able to hire several crews for a couple of cans. This is war!

Good! You can help me fit Al in his harness when we troll him as whale bait. Sometimes he puts up a fight. After being swallowed by as many of 'em as he has you'd think he'd be used to it? "Jonah Fansome" is what they call him the Marquesas.

Sorry Al! The things a grown man will do for a can of Spam :o
I must admit a sneaking admiration for your reputation as a modern day James Bartley :) I read all about the guy in a Clive Cussler novel....
