Greenpeace Save the WhalesSo, at this point I think the whole Internet has written about the Greenpeace "Mr. Splashy Pants" phenomenon.

Quick summary: Greenpeace started a "name the whale" poll: They included a list of glorious whale names, including the usual list of suspects and Hawaiian Sea Gods:

Aiko, Mira, Kaimana, Aurora, Shanti, Amal, Manami, Malaya, Sedna, Talei, Veikko, Cian, Anahi Echo, Paikea, Kigai, Yarrindi, Babu, Moya, Suzuki, Bumi, Gana, Nurani, Madiba

They also included the name "Mr. Splashy Pants".

Guess who the Web voted for? Yep, we can't elect a President, but boy -- we can name a whale "Mr. Splashy Pants" in two seconds flat.

Here are the current voting stats:

So, here's my contribution to the Mister Splashy Pants phenomenon -- Mr. Splashy Pants: THE MUSICAL! Here's the opening:

(Sung to the tune of "Fly Me To the Moon")

Mister Splashy Pants,
You need a name to call your own,
Humphrey, Libertad, Kaimana,   Shanti or Jerome,
In other words,
Who you are,
'Cause babycakes,
You're a star!


or

(Sung to the tune of "There's Nothing Like a Dame")

There ain't nothin' like a whale,
Nothing in the world,
Not a ferret, nor a quail,
No, there's nothing quite like a whale.

And what about...

There once was a web which loved a whale
It was he they challenged the harpoon for
They say that nobody ever voted for Splashy as much as ye-ee
But me-ee
I voted more.

Splashy: Tell me!
