  • "A baleen whale swallows a sailor with suspenders, and in his attempts to escape, the sailor gives the whale its distinctive sieve-like mouth."
  • "Two stories from Rudyard Kipling's Just so stories, the first about how a clever little fish and a mariner modify the whale's throat to keep him from devouring all the fish in the ocean. The second is about a very bad-tempered lazy camel who said "Humph!" too many times."
