Yeah, a little off-topic for this board, but I thought you might like it since we tend to banter about groups such as these.

Greenpeace is adopting a whale. Greenpeace lackeys have submitted names for the whale, the final name to be voted upon by the internet, or at least that's what we're led to believe.

All of the names submitted have touch-feely meanings like "little love" or "strong spirit", at least all of them except...Mister Splashy Pants. Right now, Mister Splashy Pants is winning with 70% of the vote.

Vote for Mister Splashy Pants (http://www.greenpeace.org/international/campaigns/oceans/whaling/great-whale-trail/gwt-vote?utm_sour)!

I was deeply saddened that my suggestion of:

Schmeckt Wie Hühnchen

did not make the final cut for people to vote for it.

Schmeckt Wie Hühnchen - means 'tastes like chicken' in German.
