This must be a wrong whale,,,,

Did you bring enough dynamite?

Wait...are you in Oregon...?


But that sweater is green, not blue. Are you in an alternate universe?

Update your hiatus - we see you re-enacting the famous climactic scene from Moby Dick, the movie. "Call me Barry (Manilow)."

Hey, Dave, swing by Michigan and pick up some nice furniture, something cool for the Bridge at DBBlog Hdqrtrs:

That looks like the life-sized whale art at Latitude 18 in Tortola British Virgin Islands.

Dave is about to get his back humped by a humpback whale.

Now we know where the expression, "Thar she blows!" originated.

Good luck trying to get some ambergris, but you're gonna need a MUCH bigger spoon.

I hope you're a long way from Oregon DOT.

Is there a Titleist stuck in the blowhole of the great fish?

The sea was angry that day my friends. Like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli.

You're gonna need a bigger dinghy!!!

You're gonna need a bigger condom if that's a sperm whale!!!

Bringing back a lot of whale sized memories, Dave.

If you run fast through its digestive tract, you can escape through its anus.

Looks like you caught a break with the weather.

Hiatus, Massachusetts is usually very cool this time of year.

Looks like you're in Cailifornia.

Apparently you're caught up with the swallows of Capistrano.

pharmaross appears to likely be on the right track, above. Good stalking- er, I mean sleuthing.

We're gonna need more dynamite!

Factoid. If thats a blue whale, its heart is the size of a small car. No charge.

POI, this is NOT what a blubbering idiot should look like.

Got krill?

Hey, Dave, comeon back. Plenty of famous people go thru these 'dry' periods where their creativity tank empties out and they just have to buck up and be resilient.

Why look at William Shatner - he was employed as a Starship Captain and then when he was let go he had a second (and some say highly successful) career as TJ Hooker, a terrestrial-based police officer that served his local community.

So being a successful writer may be in the past but your 'peeps' out here still love you.

Clearly having a whale of a time. I'll show myself out....

Jonah?

Are they both friends or is this just a fluke?

Thank you...

"Fish are friends, not food."

As heard down on the sidewalk below the big fish:

Policeman: "Sir, please come down. I am sure we can work this out without you hurting yourself."

Man at Fish Mouth: "What?"

Policeman: "Sir, it has been a tough time for everybody lately. You don't want to do something drastic. Are there family problems you are having to cope with? Problems at work, maybe?"

Man at Fish Mouth: "What?"

Policeman: "Sir, we have counselors here that you can talk to, that you can confide in. We understand you have been despondent because your career is failing. Whoa, sir please wait right there - don't move. One of our suicide counselors is working her way up to you know. Please wait for her."

Man at Fish Mouth: "What?"

Then, a one of the suicide counselors is seen approaching Dave. Dave appears to be quite calm. and then both of them disappear from view.

So there you go. Bet Dave never had a vacation like that.

He: "Mister Manilow, I am from the Suicide Prevention Squad. We talked to your wife and she says it is ok with her if you wear socks to bed, so please come down."

Me: "Psssst, hey, it's 'Barry', not 'Manilow'."

He: "I know. That's what I said. 'Barry Manilow'."

Me: "It's not 'Barry Manilow', it's 'Dave Barry'."

He: "Who's Dave Barry?"

As others have noted, that's a dynamite photo. Dave does look down in the mouth though.

Listen, Dave, before you do anything stupid, call me. Ishmael
