Hey, Ank. :)

I think I'd be okay in a submarine.  They have the Internet in submarines now, right?

Not regular internet, no.  I'd have been on here otherwise.

Yeah, it's weird.  The same guys, every hour every day every week every month.  It gets old.  :mad:

I thought they had ladies on them now.  ;)

Some will - I think I'll have a few female officers on my next run.  Officers only, at this point.

82 days on a submarine with NO PORT CALLS sucks.  On the other hand, the food was pretty good.  My trusty defense mechanism, narcoleptic anxiety, also kicked in with some ferocity.  It's good to be home, lol.
WTF I'd have died of claustrophobia.

Welcome back Ank  :)

Mart served on a submarine once. His record? 12 minutes, just long enough for the water to come gushing through the screen door and fill the sub.

Arab Spring been keeping you busy?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

After that he was reassigned to the tank-charging cavalry.

First, he had to dig the grave for the Polish admiral that wanted to be buried at sea.

Where did this screen-door Polish submarine thing come from? I can't recall.

Oh please, we all know you were on the Carter playing with all the fun snooper stuff off the Levant, translating in between hooka puffs and crosswords back in the guest stateroom that had "VIP INTEL DO NOT KNOCK" on the door.
