Bottle noise? Did you mean bottle "nose?"#7: Arduinna (arduinna) on Sep 25, 2008
Actually, when I saw the finished product, I thought, That's exactly what I would imagine noise from a bottle would look like! Maybe that's what he meant?#8: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Sep 25, 2008 [SPOILER]
Who knows? LOL#9: Arduinna (arduinna) on Sep 26, 2008
I'm sure that's what he meant. I was *trying* to be funny! Guess I failed. :P#10: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Sep 26, 2008
Oops! Sorry. :-( Didn't mean to upset you. LOL#11: Arduinna (arduinna) on Sep 26, 2008

LL to fin. (and nose as well).#19: Beth Briggs (yodatrophy) on Nov 26, 2017
So cute!#20: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Nov 26, 2017
What a wonderful idea to include the smaller version of the mama.#21: Yonah Kondor (yokon965) on Nov 17, 2020 [SPOILER]
The elongated nose and swept-back dorsal fin (at least visible with the larger mama here) indicate that the pun intended with the title doesn't work. These are dolphins, not porpoises--the latter having blunted noses and triangular dorsal fins. Nice puzzle anyway. :)#22: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Nov 17, 2020
Yonah Kondor,The title was a play on words. Perhaps you neglected to read the Puzzle Description which says: Mama dolphin and baby dolphin leaping above the sea.#23: JoDeen Mozena (ozymoe) on Nov 19, 2020
I am not familiar with you name, so perhaps you are not aware of the fact that Jan Wolter was the very brilliant creator of this site. (Sadly he is no longer with us.) I assure you if anyone would know the difference between the two, Jan would have.
I get such comfort and joy (besides, it's even that season) from doing one of our Jan's puzzles. It's easy to feel his loss here so keenly. You and the children are always in my prayers, Valerie. The eternal "Why," but still, he left you his smile and several quirks through the children, I'm sure...and of course his intelligence with yours will keep you hopping to stay one step ahead of them!
