Hi all,
ORIGINAL: sprior

Er, no. "The Cruel Sea" is about a corvette running convoy escort in WWII. I think you're thinking of "Open Water".

Eeeeeeeeeeek... yep... mistake... [:)]

BTW, still love the "H.M.S. Ulysses" by Alistair MacLean...

Shame that it was never turned into movie!

You've never seen or read "The Cruel Sea"?

Nope. Is that where these snorkers come from?

i am the weakest man on earth, or on this forum. I am just amazed at how much i can bear.
You are not weak. It takes a very strong person to be able to do and go through what you have been going through.
Lucky for you, tonight it's just me

Rested, fed, hotel room full of young hockey players killing time before the first game of the weekend, and a turn in my inbox for after the game this evening.  [8D]

This is a game, not a part of life that has drastic ramifications if you get it wrong. All house rules are essentially judgment calls. I'm actually much more confident in house rules that come out of players actually playing the game and running into issues than what the devs think. Most of them don't even play the game much.

And the great thing is, because I decided which ones to use (along with my opponent or opponents), I can change them any time I want. [;)]


Right. OK. And since no one at Matrix seems to want to return my PM's,emails,or comment on my posts, it's all academic anyway. You think that since I live in a state covered with windmills, I wouldn't bother going on line to tilt at them.[8|]

Is this the best time to refer you to your sig banner, Steve? [:'(]


I WAS indirectly referring to it. [8|]

It's just One Of Those Things(tm)...


Yeah, our military actually has a specific program to address it. It's called (I kid you not) "The things falling off airplanes program". [X(]

Maybe we need a "Exploding engines program?"[X(]

I've been present at a couple of engine explosions, and it's not a goood feeling you get from it.[X(][:(]

Morning. Good, for you, i hope.

Second night in a row that Claire must be tied up to her bed by the medics. Last night she tried to swallow a spoon and her mobile phone.
Have a interview/meeting/rendez-vous (guys, what's the right word ??) with "her" doctor today. And of course fearing what he could say.
Fortunately, her parents are keeping hope and "provide "me with such when i lack, and vice/versa they are sometime wondering how i can stand all this and i give them comfort as much as i can.
There is only one way: STRUGGLE ; but damn < deleted for morale purpose > hard it is.

Once more a big thank you for all of you here (and you are many enough that i can't count exactly !) that gave support and words.

Eric

We will be here , and please keep in minds that Claire,you, and your familes will be in our thoughs and prayers. Is there anything we can do? [:(]
