I guess if you got if from a whale you had given the heimlich maneuver to, maybe. . . Nah, it's still disgusting.

because “we don’t keep a certified whale-vomit expert on staff.”
So where do I go for the training, and how much can I expect to make my first year?

An orcan hairball
Or is it just more faux puke?
Ask an old sailor.

People who work the roller coasters at Six Flags get to be vomit-experts, and some of those people are pretty big. Maybe they'd know.

"Class, your challenge to do is to write a G-rated sentence using the words sperm and spew."
Mr. Galcik, 80, concluded that the mysterious gift might be ambergris, the storied substance created in the intestines of a sperm whale and spewed into the ocean.

*Kicks gravel back at Brainy* ... what, my "Christmas Wish of the Day" wasn't a catchy enough email headline?

Guin - I wasn't kicking gravel AT you. Sorry if it hit you, though. Just meant as an "Aw, shucks" visual. Props to you and all.
