    Phase change?

    Cool idea.

    That’s saying something when Aston chooses GM over Ford.

    Doug’s fuel economy would probably increase 8, 10, or 50 percent if he removed that freaking big anchor from the Viper’s trunk.

    I’m seeking!

    That’s nothing, comparatively speaking. 1. Recently a group of hiring managers admitted the job description overstated the salary range by 60 percent. I learned that AFTER a 2 1/2 hour travel to the meeting. 2. A woman in charge of nine-figures in assets interviewing me to replace her at retirement said twice, “I…

    Why do interviewers use pencils to records interviewees’ responses? Why do interviewers require interviewees to sign documents (other than application) prior to conducting the interview?

    The second-most inexplicable thing to happen to me in a car occurred in at a beach near Charleston, SC. I and my blonde date were returning from a harbor cruise in her 325i (sorry, slushbox) when I saw a pull off heading to the water. She had her mind set to unzip my pants and lean over into my lap. Okayyy. Blinding…

    Engine shutoff. No noise. No warning. Off. Happened three, maybe four times and only when approaching the local ‘packie.’ The car was a 2001 Cadillac in great tune (except for the 1qt/1,000 miles Cadillac calls normal) and possibly subject to the ignition issues, idk but it happened prior to that news. I thought it…

    Why a Yap coin?

    WE can see that. Just clicking the link primed us for the expectation of a mess up. Perhaps the driver thought there was more room on the far side of the truck and camper.

    My time was short on the old boat and much of it by the pier or in drydock. Next was the 637 Sturgeon. Much of the crew on both Sculpin and Sturgeon was great. The old boat was tiny. As A-div, my normal workweek was a scheduled 70 hours minimum. Once, including meals, topside watch, and roving watch, I worked 49+…

    lol.

    Great to meet you! Congrats on passing nuke school and as an electrician! I am coner. We hold meetings BETWEEN running air compressors. Watch me sleep as you take tests. :) I was the nifti during ORSEs. MM3(SS)!

    Except we store 20 cases of eggs around the diesel engine and layer the floor throughout the sonar computer room with 40lb cans of flour aboard fast attack subs

    Been there, several times. Walked under subs in drydocks. Climbed upward through the ballast drains, between the inner hull and outer hull. Completed boot at 17, MM-A school and in drydocks before 19.

    Das-Boot was one of the attractions that drew me to submarine service. My first boat, USS Sculpin, SSN-590 was one hull number newer than the Scorpion - and three hull numbers older than the Thresher.

    They park in the handicapped spot. The car is in the adjacent spot when they return.
