Simply amazing these people are still alive.

It's intense if only because of the number of ways these people can
screw up.

The best tonight? The "communications" officer who had never seen a
radar unit before.

Or a ship.
I missed all that and watch Slumdog Millionaire with the wife. she
bought it on dish Network.

Very intriguing movie.
I loved S M, but I didn't get to watch Whale Wars because my wife pouts
so much, I had to change the channel. She doesn't understand the joy
of watching a train wreck in slow motion.

Last night was classic - absolutely classic. It starts off with a crew
party on-board, lots of drunk folks, imposition of a dry ship. Bunch
get ****ed off, including the deck crew and comm officer, and it goes
down hill from there.

None of the deck hands have any experience, the Bosun is one of those
"screamer" types, the new comm officer is a hippy dude who has never
been on a ship before, never worked on radar and (oh, this was the
best part) when hiding in a ice field (in a non-rated ship by the way)
he says "Oh man - just like Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon in Star
Wars").

Obi Wan Watson.

Oh yeah - the secret to a happy marriage?

Separate TVs.


Where is this whale show?

Whale wars is a spoof of the administration and congress. Why watch
pretend when you can observe the real deal?
