Oh well seen, well seen.
Maybe she was confused.
"He's ev'rywhere, he's ev'rywhere!"
Tonight we're watching "Hunter Killer," a big action movie about two subs underwater near Russia and a deadly cat and mouse game that could start a war. In one of the first attack scenes, when Gerard Butler's submarine barely dodges two torpedoes, the explosion causes some electronic equipment on deck to malfunction.
Have you ever noticed in Hollywood, when electronic equipment or computers fail, they burst into flames throwing out sparks and smoke? I've been repairing computers since 1993 and I've only seen one computer spark out and that was because the idiot network analyst was messing with the power supply while it was plugged in. He killed at that time was an $1800 computer. I agreed never to tell the director it happened. He could have lost his job. Anyway after the arc spark the machine died. No explosion, no fireworks or sparks, no bangs. Hollywood, right?

Yeah. Cars don't roll over and explode. Catch fire then explode? Maybe.

I made the mistake of paying money to see this movie in a theater. Complete waste of time and money. Granted, my knowledge gained as a US Navy sonar technician probably didn't help...but the shark got jumped within the first 90 seconds of this film and it became practically unwatchable for me after that point. Believe me, subs look NOTHING like that inside.
Oh, lookey, a 7ender style F!
Speaking of F, which of these dresses...
...would look best on this?

The red number hiding out on the left side is my pick. But it would gum up the works, wouldn't it?

C'mon man. Anything that catches air also catches fire and explodes, it's The Law.

Here with you to say I got rear eneded in a rented Pinto on the way to a Grateful Dead show. A three-car collision and everyone has tickets tonight. A rising feeling of we were rear-ended in a Pinto makes the show all the more interesting ....
My boss at mumble mumble was a bubblehead and wore the dolphins. He was ... well when I worked for those people there were an awful lot of former army brass and one might hear stories over beer after work. I believe I heard enough to grok.
Dancin' along with Billy Sunday

Saw that happen on a ramp in Da Nang. Fuel crew thought it was a Phantom, gave it 800 gallons of JP4.
It didn't end well for many rear ended Pintos. BTW, pinto beans are explosive, an omen.
