So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Sam & Mikey recently watched "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" at their dad's house. Sam especially liked the introduction, since it is about dolphins. As the second most-intelligent creatures on Earth, they had attempted to warn mankind about the planet's impending destruction, but humans had interpreted the dolphins' communications as performance tricks. The dolphins considered their mission a failure and left the planet. Mikey especially liked their final message to humans: "So long, and thanks for all the fish."
