There's nothing funny I can think of to say about this mass death of herring. The planet is dying and it's horrible.

That's gonna smell bad!

Wow. You could cut down a lot of trees with those.

Have you ruined a fjord lately?

Too early in the day for so many consonants.

This is more in line with the blog's usual topics.

"Has the water circulation in the fjord been cut off?"
"What was that again? I'm hard of herring."

Anyone else see "dead herring" and instantly think "Helen Shapiro?"

I saw Dead Herring open for Meat Loaf.

I dunno.
Something fishy about this story.

They aren't dead, they are just "resting."

They're pining for the fjords... Oh wait, they're there already.

We're gonna need more onion, vinegar, salt and dill.

Exactly, Jeff M. Dead Herring was a band which later changed its name to Helen Shapiro among other things in a Monty Python bit. The same bit from which the band Toad the Wet Sprocket took its name.
The crap that clutters up my memory...

I don't know why we're talking about this, but since we are, do you know why lite beer is like making love in a canoe? It's fu#king close to water.
