Actually the “rails” thing is likely a reference to monorail cat. http://icanhascheezburger.com/2007/01/12/monorail-cat/

That looks great. At last thursday’s Cartoonist Conspiracy we drew a series of comics inspired by random tweets. Needless to say, the fail whale made some appearances.

Sadly, the Twitter fail whale may be gone forever? I mean if Twitter gets really efficient.

There’s got to be some way to save the whale — if you tweat, retweat this petition right here: http://savethefailwhales.org/

thanks!
