At the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies in Mississippi, Kelly the dolphin has built up quite a reputation. All the dolphins at the institute are trained to hold onto any litter that falls into their pools until they see a trainer, when they can trade the litter for fish. In this way, the dolphins help to keep their pools clean.

Iā??m finally in the store and some guy follows me around, telling me that bandaids are on sale for 97 cents or something like that. I realized at this point that he was an employee. Even after I told him I wasnā??t interested, he gave me a big speech about the bandaids- alright buddy I donā??t want your bandaids.

Yes. Not only are dolphins smarter than Wal-Mart folks, they are cleaner than a drunk or a homeless bum. The stories my dad would tell me when he worked as a cabbie, driving home drunks at night. Some of them would literally piss and shit their pants, without even knowing it.

Walmart folks are fine in my book. At least they have a job and thier trying. The only thing that's putting me off of walmart all together is the fact that they're cancelling layaway. I don't know what all of the middle to lower class folks (like me) are gonna do at christmas. It's like the whole world is trying to ruin our credit.

Around here,the avg walmart employee makes a point to studiously avoid actually ASSISTING any customers.Only way to get any help is to light up a cig or a joint.Within a minute or two you'll have at least 3 associates in your face telling you to put out your smoke.But if you need help with anything you won't find anyone within a 1000 feet of you.Wal-mart serves it's purpose,(mainly saving me a few $ on things I already know everything I need to know about)If I have questions about a purchase, I simply go to a REAL store with people who not only KNOW about what they are selling,but will actually ASSIST a customer when needed.Walmart is STRICTLY a self-service type of store.Their employees seldom know diddly squat about anything they stock and you couldn't find 1 even if they DID have the answer to your question.
and before anyone makes any smart remarks,I worked for Wal-mart as an inventory taker for 4 years as well as working as a local store associate for a year.I've been inside at least 100 supercenters across TX and LA time and time again in that work, and the AVG employee is about as smart as a box of rocks.so the dolphins win hands down!

First we will evaluate the intelligence of a dolphin.
At the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies in Mississippi, Kelly the dolphin has built up quite a reputation. All the dolphins at the institute are trained to hold onto any litter that falls into their pools until they see a trainer, when they can trade the litter for fish. In this way, the dolphins help to keep their pools clean.
Iā??m impressed but I donā??t know if this makes them smarter than a person.
Kelly has taken this task one step further. When people drop paper into the water she hides it under a rock at the bottom of the pool. The next time a trainer passes, she goes down to the rock and tears off a piece of paper to give to the trainer. After a fish reward, she goes back down, tears off another piece of paper, gets another fish, and so on. This behaviour is interesting because it shows that Kelly has a sense of the future and delays gratification. She has realised that a big piece of paper gets the same reward as a small piece and so delivers only small pieces to keep the extra food coming. She has, in effect, trained the humans.
The competition is getting fierce, is it possible? Can a dolphin really be smarter than a person?
Her cunning has not stopped there. One day, when a gull flew into her pool, she grabbed it, waited for the trainers and then gave it to them. It was a large bird and so the trainers gave her lots of fish. This seemed to give Kelly a new idea. The next time she was fed, instead of eating the last fish, she took it to the bottom of the pool and hid it under the rock where she had been hiding the paper. When no trainers were present, she brought the fish to the surface and used it to lure the gulls, which she would catch to get even more fish. After mastering this lucrative strategy, she taught her calf, who taught other calves, and so gull-baiting has become a hot game among the dolphins.
Very interesting read...wasn't aware that dolphins could do this much. Imagine being able to communicate with them, they could tell us so much about the ocean!

I was watching TV this morning, and there were folks on there saying that they had paid $15,000 for a painting, done by an elephant! :p At first I was like, wow, that's stupid, but this elephant, painted a huge mural of trees and landscape. It wasn't spectacular or anything, but you could tell what it was. I was amazed that an elephant can paint pictures better than some college degree art students.
Carry on. :D
