    I used to work on a whale watching boat, we mainly watched killer whales. Each whale can be identified by their dorsal fin and their saddle patch, Okum who was whale "L10" was an adult male with a tall dorsal fin and he had an very small piece of his fin missing 2/3 of the way up his fin. This made him easy to identify as well he had a very mischevious character. The year after I quit working on the boats he went missing which in a social system where they stay with their family for life means that he died. He was always my favorite whale and I miss him.

    SPEARHEAD was a nickname before I became a Pearl Jam fan ...
    As the note below says, I am one of the biggest fans of the band, the REGGAE band, BURNING SPEAR, led by Winston Rodney, aka The Man in the Hills, aka the greatest Marcus Garvey disciple of all!

    Later, when I realized there was a band called SPEARHEAD, I figured most people would think that was what I was referring to, but, uhh, so what?
    I was alone and far away when I heard the band start playing!

    ...I was always a DeadHead, but when I first heard Winston Rodney, aka the Burning Spear, sing, I became a SpearHead too!

    I used to work in a place where people signed emails as sports figures. I figured the fact that Xavier McDaniel and Pearl Jam both had cameos in the movie "Singles", that this name might make sense for a Pearl Jam messageboard..
