Upon first reading Dave Barry's book, I did not think that I liked it very much. This is because it made me feel like the time someone told my friends and I if you said the word "gullible" really slowly it would sound like you had said "green beans". So of course my friends and I all start saying, "gu-ll-ib-le...", only to smack ourselves on our foreheads two seconds later. I couldn't ever figure out if Dave Barry was making fun of ludicrous claims and ideas, or if he was making the whole thing up. No one would really ever be stupid enough to blow up a whale, would they? To answer myself: Yes, yes they would. (I looked up the video on You Tube.) Once I figured out that all of his topics were real (sort of) I could enjoy his humor, laughing with him at the rest of the world and their ridiculous stories. Silly, silly world...
Dave seems particularly interested in things that blow up, whale carcases being only one example. He also studies spontaneous combustive cows, pigs, snails, toliets, and potatoes. He is very intregued by the subject and suggest we stay away from all objects until the matter is resolved. I think everyone should try and follow his suggestion. This is a very serious matter, and we need to heed him.
