That poor old Sherman is well maintained but looks like he has gun droop. Needs some Cialis. Must be at least 68+

I am starting to get that old invasionus interruptis pain again. We are on haitus as one of the Imperar High Command has signed on to cook for Lief Ericson for 2 weeks on a trip to Vineland.

Maybe Admiral Lord Sprior has some more bird or machines of war pictures. [:)]

Oh
my Japanese boy
ooh
I miss my Japanese boy.

People ask about him every day
oh oh
oh oh.
Don't know what to tell them
what can I say? Oh oh
oh
If only he would write me or call
A word of explanation
that's all.
It would stop me climbing the wall

There seem to be a lot of tall, vertical, cylindrical objects where you live.

Look at this. This is what is "holding up" my balcony. 300 year old beams on HMS Victory look better.

I don't how many people actually read this stuff, I think it's just 7 or 8 people checking here for something exciting/interesting/funny to see mostly and disappointed at that. But anyway if you're a serious naval buff you might be interested in this https://support.nmrn.org.uk/the-anglo-g ... war-at-sea

Norman Friedman and NAM Rodger are the keynote speakers. All this plus dinner on the Victory for £100? F@$£ yes! Sign up. Now. You can sleep at my place for the 3 days. Really.

B-24's on Shemya. We have Navy PB4Y's but no B-24's yet. It's not snowing either. [:)] Can a B-24 land on Marsden matting? Si, senor.
