...first of the offensive jokes in "Seth Lives" to leap to mind is the series where Seth enrolled in a drawing class against his will, only to be pleasantly surprised when a buxom model walked in and began performing a strip tease for the class. The series' climax consisted of a really ugly fat man coming in the next day...instead of the pretty naked woman from the day before!! It should be said that anyone who has ever taken a drawing class--one that wasn't hijacked from a beer commercial--would know that a model never comes...

Did they communicate in some fashion to choose a routine and coordinate their movements? In order to spit, for instance, they both must take water into their mouths before they leap into the air -- a trick that takes some forethought. Other requests for tandem creatives have yielded a variety of results, including a synchronized backward swim culminating in a simultaneous wave of the tails. Or could it be that these routines are nothing more than one dolphin very closely following the lead...
