There She Blows!
Quote of the moment:
"There she blows! There she blows! A hump like a snow-hill! It is Moby Dick!"
- Herman Melville, Moby Dick.
For anyone who managed to miss the news, there was a whale swimming in the Thames today. Police are making inquiries about whether whales are sentient enough to be prosecuted for disorderly conduct.
In other water related news, James Cracknell and Ben Fogle have finished an impressive third out of twenty-six in the Atlantic Rowing Race and were the first pair across the line (the previous two boats were fours).
More from Melville:
"Ignorance is the parent of fear..."
