No Shoggoth
Not a shoggoth after all. News this morning about the washed up carcass in Chile. Turns out it was just what happens to sperm whales when they die. "When a sperm whale dies at sea, it rots until it becomes a 'skeleton suspended in a semi-liquid mass within a bag of skin and blubber,' the scientists said. Eventually, the skin tears and the bones sink while the skin and blubber float." (from CNN.com). Bummer. And kinda nasty.
