Are sea lions getting smarter?!?!?

In a startling move, the normally reliable sea lion population at Pier 39 in San Francisco have packed their bags and headed for the Oregon coast. There are many theories on why this is happening- from food shortages, to changes in water temperature, to pollution, to a combination of all of these. The most likely theory, however, is that the sea lions have suddenly developed a much deeper intelligence and have finally realized that the spot they call home smells like complete and utter s%&@.

Lol. I just applied for a job as a field researcher of seal lion populations (really!). If I get the job, my first order of business will be to scientifically explore your smells-like-s%&@ hypothesis.

Yeah it will be important as the "new guy" that you bring it up right away. I think the more time you spend on the job, the less it affects you- kinda like that french fry spell you get from working at McDonalds.
