MAINZ, Germany – Pink? Or blue? For most parents this is the paramount question when it comes to organizing a baby shower or choosing a color for a newborn's room. But, what happens if the exact gender of the child cannot be determined? It is estimated that in Germany alon …
momus 2009,
Thank you! I laughed so hard I cried regarding your comment on the American stranded in the Ukraine. Really needed that!
t's NOT about FEAR, it's about FACT! When former Muslims are warning you, when all you need to do is read some history (and the history of Islam, including the PRESENT, is dim and violent) clearly there's something substantial for those with the brains to reason.
Do you want Sharia law? Most Muslims state that this is what they want, it not a secret. If that's what you like, then go to Saudi Arabia, but don't be telling us that Islam means our country no harm b/c the FACTS make you a liar.

RE: the comment about my son.

See! This is what's wrong with our government! You see these charges on her and say, well, that's not as bad as this guy! Well, you know what?? NONE OF IT SHOULD HAPPEN!! On either side!! And, no matter how small the charge, they should be charged and kicked out! It is because of Americans (I guess you are) like you that our entire system has gotten this way! IF WE HAVE TO OBEY EVERY LAW, SO SHOULD THEY!!! In fact, they should be held to a higher standard! This has gotten ridiculous! "Well, it's not so bad that she helped a bank even though she had a personal interest in it." YES IT IS!!! You better believe it is!!! Good grief! It needs to start at the top and get on down the line! Whoever is guilty needs to get the proverbial boot! It is this kind of attitude that is going to bring about another revolution! WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!!!!!
Momus 2009:
When I was in (1975-1985) the smoking lamp was lighted throughout the ship most of the time except during special evolutions (e.g. refueling, ammunition handling, GQ) and in particular spaces (magazines, fuel transfer areas, berthing spaces after lights-out (although this last tended to be rather sporadically enforced).), however it was ALWAYS out topside after dark due to darken ship rules.
Your comment seems to indicate that when you were on a ship one HAD to go to weather decks to smoke (yes? no?). Taken to it's logical conclusion this seems to imply that there would be no place to smoke between dusk and dawn.
I'm interested - is this the case or was/is some other arrangement made? Perhaps someone on a ship now would care to comment.
