Porpoises rescue Dick van Dyke

So does this mean that England finally forgives him for his accent work in Mary Poppins?

Story here

Surfing at 84 and rescued by Flipper? Way to go, Dick!

Porpoises merged Annie-Xmas’s thread into this one.

So this is a dual porpoise thread now, eh?

If he fell asleep, he wasn’t surfing. He was likely lying on the surfboard, paddling around. It’s just like what happened to Flash Gordon in 10, before Arthur rescued him.

For all intensive porpoises, yes.

I’d want to see the story in whiting.

What do you call the thing that juts up on their back and often breaks the surface of the water and scares the living hell out of Yankee tourists who are busy sunburning their bodies while in the water? I’ve always called it a dorsal fin but maybe I’ve always been wrong.

Maybe I’ve always been stupid, too.

Or maybe you didn’t read the whole post?

This story has been dolphinitively debunked, people.

If they’d actually seen Mary Poppins, they would’ve attacked.

“Oh, Rob”

Or the theoretical SDMBer Equiporpoise.

Ludovic wins the coveted Post of the Day award! :smiley:

Yeah, I know it was posted yesterday. It’s the even more coveted belated Post of the Day award.

Oooops. (I did say that maybe I’ve always been stupid-----I didn’t fully appreciate how applicable that comment was.)
