Vertreps are at least cool to watch, better then the old cable linkage style Unrep. It was always cool watching the Navy pilots and the Navy Seahawks do the vertreps. So much more power available than our Pavehawks. The Seahawks had the newer engines and were WAY lighter without all the kevlar and various fuel cell configurations.

What was your job during the vertreps?

What was your longest time afloat without hitting port?

I usually stocked the reefers belowdecks. I picked those, because they were the coldest place you'd be for a while, and it was summer in the Arabian Gulf.

The longest time without port was 46 days. That friggin sucked.

It LOOKS beautiful outside. But it's 26*F (also known as "46 degrees colder than it should ever be").

We got the fluffy white stuff here. Amazing that they didn't freak out again this time, many schools are still open, govts etc... and it's still snowing even now.

Talk about inconsistent.

If it gets cold in TN, they shut everything down. I loved those school days that we got full days off for dustings in grass. I'd go out and do fun stuff like bowling. Was legit. I miss those days of getting out for snow.... :(

I'm becoming more and more confident that the Universe is @#$%ing with me.

Before, I thought it was merely working against me. But it's starting to feel less like straightforward opposition and more like varied a@@hattery.

Universe, I have this to say:
You want me as your ally, not your enemy.

The more I watch Archer and read your posts, the more I realize you are Kreiger. Just throwing that out there. As fitting as the Vortigaunt is, you definitely personify Kreiger.

Definitely more about his not giving a f*** about anything, and general domination plans and stuff. Oh, and 4:14 as well.

Oh, and the whole show's great sense of sarcasm just seems right up your alley.
