Hi Stratos – I didn’t even know about Manhattenhenge until this week – it’s really cool :-)

Awesome list!
Manhattanenge was pretty awesome.
I would have been terrified if I was that guy standing that close to the whale! I’m terrified for him looking at it.
And thanks for introducing me to Devandra.

Hi Jim – They kept insisting that the whale was just curious but how do you know – I don’t think, however, that whales typically hurt people – except for killer whales.

Manhattanhenge was awesome! All in all, a fun post to read. I’d have been terrified of the whale, too. I am reading Leviathan and evidently Jonah wasn’t the only one! Oy!

Hi Betsy – I keep thinking that I wouldn’t have been scared of the whale and then I realize that is ridiculous – I don’t even have the guts to go scuba diving ;-)
