Ha, ha! I have been polishing petrified whale blubber, and barf for some of my customers. It is really weird stuff to polish. The blubber smells like fat from a cooked steak that has sat around for a few days in the sun, and the barf smells like an amateur anchovy pizza from Mama Spaghtti's place, complete with amazing colours! They both feel real weird, different than amber.
Way cool.

In the beginning was the Floyd, and the Floyd was with Him, and He was with the Floyd. Syd Barret just disappeared, right after the happening. Lita Ford drives a suburban! Big Hair Heavy Metal is dead. Oh weeping and gnashing of teeth, the end is near. The answer is 42. 42! BING! BIG BING!

Guess I don't need to worry about finding any of that, kind of hard to do day trips to the ocean from here.

Keep your eyes open for a rock-like chunk of ambergris that could be worth a quarter million. Rich

Omigosh, my hubby fishes in the ocean all the time and was out on a boat with a buncha guys, when a whale and her baby surfaced. All of the sudden the whole boat was engulfed in a giant invisible cloud of horrible, wretched smell that was so bad several folks were vomiting over the side. You guessed it, whale fart!
