Maybe He Was Visiting Graceland

Would-be rescuers in Memphis, Tennessee have suspended their search for an 800 pound manatee that had swum 700 miles up the Mississippi River. The creatures have been known to occasionally wander into the mouth of the river in Louisiana, but for one to show up this far north is believed to be unprecedented.

The concern was that manatees require a minimum water temperature of 66 degrees (18.8 Celsius), and water temps in Memphis are currently at about 60. It is hoped that the river's current will help guide the large blubbery mammal back down to the Gulf of Mexico.

It's not clear what Rush Limbaugh was doing in the water in the first place.
