What are YOU doing during the Outbreak??!!

Post by John 3rd »

Christopher and I have been busy expanding the Japanese Fleet in my man cave over the last two days. We've built I-400, DD Hatsuharu, and DD Hatsushimo to add to our collection of waterline ships:

Here are the SS. Look at I-400 compared to the others.

Chris was really funny. WE built the two DDs today and, when completed, he stared at them and said....ahhh...wait a minute. Got up. Grabbed I-400 and said 'that thing is bigger then a destroyer!' Small lesson learned I guess.

Tomorrow we start IJN Chokai (Chris's choice) and IJN Kirishima (Dad's choice).

WOW! Don't know why the first picture is so big...

If you are staying home, what are you doing right now?

I'm keeping my store alive on life support, building models with the boys, and working on finishing our pond/stream/waterfall in preparation for a small garden railroad.

Waterline ships? You could at least do an SS with just the periscope showing. You could claim to have a whole fleet of submerged SSs. That's what I'm going to do.

Chris wrote a paper on IJN Yamato for 8th Grade American History Class. Got a 95%! (That's my boy)

Now that he is enjoying doing the waterlines...he wants Dad to buy it so we can build it. Damn. It will take forever...not to mention I'll need another blue shelf on the wall.

I've already completed one of my own. Here is SS-292 Devilfish. The water is brown because it's in an estuary after a flood.

When you finish your sub fleet, will you invite neighbours over to watch the submarine races?

What is that Juksto or Jukstg device? Is that what you use to contact your Gornian Central Committee controller?

Trying to expose my 15 YO son to Shakespeare. A classic remake of King Lear, but with many more arterial spurts than the bard's version:

Er... You forgot Sergio Leone and Stanley Kubrick.

Kubrick would resurrect Dr. Strangelove for a sequel.
