I got a plum NOAA job for the summer!

Tagging and releasing Carlisle's Manatee's to determine their migration and mating habits. The one we're currently watching, Belinda, behaves very oddly. When released it swims to the nearest cosmetic surgeon demanding they "lift and tuck everything!" Who knew manatees could talk?

Hmm... "she" has an Adam's Apple. You've got some explaining to do, Al.

Uh-oh, he's snapped again. Will his imagined thoughts of flocks of migrating flying penguins on their annual transpolar trips keep him indoors for the summer?

An unidentified station was first noted at around 0330 UTC May 17, 2012, on 6990 kHz, sending three phrases over and over:

    “She had your dark suit in greasy wash water all year. Don’t ask me to carry an oily rag like that. They used an aggressive policeman to flag thoughtless motorists”

the plot thickens!
