Oh, man, have I got a story for you…
If that link doesn’t work… In 1970 an 8 ton dead gray whale washed up on the beach in Florence.
Now, in Oregon, all the beaches are public beaches, under the control of the highway department, and they didn’t know how to remove a dead whale.
So they packed it with 1/2 a ton of dynamite and blew it up thinking the seagulls and crabs would eat the bits remaining.
Now, in Oregon, all the beaches are public beaches,
i think that might be a west coast thing because it’s a California thing too. Would Washington State chime in please?

I’m so excited for the person you’re telling about this. Imagine seeing that video again for the first time?
I remember clear as day downloading this video from Limewire and the incredible majesty of understanding that people are, in fact, this stupid.
shit, my grandma was there. she’s got pictures.

History on the Oregon law here, passed in 3 B.W. (before whale).

While California has public beaches, they have private beaches as well. In Oregon the entire coastline is public.

Looks like WA is the same, public/private mix.

those “private beaches” in california are public beaches that landowners with land near the beach keep trying to steal

The blast blasted blubber beyond believable bounds.

For real?
Has she ever mentioned what the F people were thinking at the time? This seems like a solution that only a 1980’s cartoon would have come up with.
