    It's OK, must be because I'm fat. And touchy.

    Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

      Amazingly, the Aussies spent their hard-earned cash on subs designed by Sweden...who had never built a "full-size" sub before.

      Must be much like buying a first generation Honda Pick-up Truck, I suppose.


      Anyway...where was I?

      Seawolfs and Virginias all the way! Woot!
      Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.

        Really GP? I never heard about that.

        The government here really sucks when it comes to supporting our guys in uniform. The current government cancelled a deal to buy new helicopters out of pure political spite for the previous government. Our air crews have been forced to fly in death traps ever since. And yes, a few have died.

                My ship caused a bit of an incident in Esquimalt (Victoria). Several liberty incidents and a release of steam from emergency cooling initiation on the reactor after we screwd up and lost flow...

                Not my fault on those. Ok. I was along for the liberty incidents...they weren't that bad...

                  Be quiet, Chris. That ship was cursed. Just ask Joe the shipyard guy...wasn't my fault.

                    Nothing our own guys haven't done I'm sure. Except for the Radiation bit...

                    Did you give the mayor's daughter back?

                      We told the Canadian police that they couldn't come on board...that solved the problem. No way the CO was gonna let these guys take our cook...

                        Oh, you must be an "O". Our cook would have beenhauled to the police by a working party.

                          So the truth comes out. You were the guy asleep at the steam switch... I might know a few people who want to talk to you.

                          I'll bet the refusal puzzled them (the RCMP).
