Beluga Dan

So, that guy I've been talking about on the bus, the one who is slightly mentally-handicapped. Well, there's another dude that rides the bus named Dan also. This other Dan is much, much skinnier than I am.

Said other friend (mentally handicapped one) calls the other Dan "Slender Dan" -- not to my face though. I found out this information second-hand; however, I was able to confirm this is the case.

What does that mean about me?

Okay, so I'm NOT slender. But, do we need to make a point of it?

What am I? Beluga Dan?

I've decided to relate to a Beluga Whale. I explained this to another person on the bus and she laughed and laughed. After the weekend, I saw her and she said, "Hey Bazooka Dan!"

I said, "What? Bazooka Dan?" I was thinking about maybe Bazooka (TM) gum or perhaps she saw me with a bazooka somewhere. (You know me and my bazookas).

"You remember, Slender Dan and Bazooka Dan."

"Ah. You mean Baluga Dan!"

"Yeah that's it!"

"A Baluga is a whale, you know."

"Oh. That's funny and makes sense now. I didn't know that."

Yeah. I'm wondering why she thought my whole "Baluga Dan" business was funny to begin with.

I've been working out regularly though. I'm working on becoming "Dolphin Dan". However, I will admit I went swimming at a friends house this past Labor Day and made Baluga sounds in the water. I'm not really sure what "Baluga Sounds" are, but I made them. I did say, "Baluuuuga!" a lot. I know if I were really a Baluga Whale, I'd say "Baluuuga!" a lot, so I did.
