The Boat: Island Packet 35

You're sailing offshore alone, on autopilot and on a comfortable reach. You pad
below to get some hot chocolate when a strange noise alerts you that
something's up.
Back on deck you find that your boat is now traveling with a fairly large pod
of Sperm Whales. You count 5 or 6 adults and two calves. A large bull is making
somewhat unusual motions with his flukes and he swims closer to your boat.

What do you do?

Democrat answer... ignore the whales, they are clearly hallucinations
brought on by too much LSD back in the '60s. Everybody knows whales are
extinct by now.

Republican answer... rake the whale with a burst of .50 cal fire
(tracers 1 in 3). After all whales are supposed to be extinct by now,
dammit!
