When I used to sail in the ocean porpoises would cavort and, I presume, frolic around our boat. Racing us and playing "chicken". A favorite game of theirs would be to race alongside and cut us off, darting in front of the bow.

It was especially amazing at night, with the running lights out on a moonless night. the phosphoresence (sp?) was just too cool. they looked like greenish/silver contrails whooshing along under water.

Really one of the most stupendous things I've seen.

I wonder about that whale.

I do know the last thing that goes through a bug's mind when it hits your windshield though...
