  1. I'm a chemist. 
    I'm fortunate to be able to live in the middle of fucking nowhere and use my education in non-illicit ways to make an extremely good salary.  If I had the balls I could make a lot more money a la the Walter White route.

    Also just fill a water bottle with the vodka for ur flight. I literally do everytime and have never been told shit

    How do you get the vodka through security?  Asking for me.

     On a short flight you risk breaking the seal, then being trapped in your seat during excruciatingly long belts-on restrictions. 

    Rookie.  Just bring a few empties with you.

    We've discussed this before. When you had the colonoscopy done they did not completely tighten things up on the way out and it sounds like they cross-threaded your O-ring as well leading to an uneven spray/distribution of coal. You should dispute the bill. 

    Maybe I'll just use some CLR on my sphincter.  Could just be some lime and scale buildup.  Will report back.

  5. OK, so I have been having an issue lately, which, while not sharting per se, is causing me distress.  When I go to blow mud, for some god forsaken reason, I seem to get a big blob on the inside of my right butt cheek.  Not the left, and not every time, but it creates a real wiping ordeal.  Why it is not projecting straight down into the bowl has me perplexed.  This injustice needs to end.

    This is correct.  It won't be a sprinkler system because the two most common types of fire will be fuel or electrical and water doesn't fix that.

    My guess is the engine room had some C02 system to put out a fire but it only works if its both maintained, and the door is closed so the c02 can do its work.

    Galley fire at 3am when everyone's asleep?  Unless the cook was slow roasting a roux or something, seems unlikely.  Galley fires happen when people are in the galley cooking.

    My guess is that this is either an electrical fire or some dumbassery like someone left a bright light close to and shining on something flammable.  Fuel fire would require first a fuel leak, which would smell like diesel and make everyone sick, before it ignited.  Fire spread quickly on main deck and by the time people on lower deck realized there was a fire, their only exit looked like hell's entrance.

    A decent fire detection system prevents things like this but either they didn't have one, didn't maintain it, or something.

     

     

     

    There were apparently a couple of standard extinguishers in the bunk area, but my guess is the flames weren't down there, at least not initially.  It was all happening above them, making escape impossible.  Electrical system knocked out.  Pitch black.  Smoke everywhere.  Fucking terrifying to think about.

    I guess Boise State had an advantage being used to playing in the humid tropical jungle like climate of Central Idaho 🙄

    You joke, but I heard Neuheisel on his Full Ride show talking about visiting Boise St (I guess he has a kid there?), and popping in on Harsin.  He took him to the practice facility, and in prep for a humid game (not sure if it was this one), he said it was like a sauna in there.  So maybe they were better prepared

    You get on a boat and they take you to diving destinations to dive.

    During your surface intervals (the breaks between scuba dives when your body recovers from breathing compressed air under the pressure of the sea depths), they feed you meals, travel to new destinations, and provide you with accommodations for sleep.

    Then when the time comes, you dive again.

    I’m sure someone does this out of generosity but in my experience it is generally done for monetary compensation.


     

     

     

    The Channel Islands have some of the best diving in the world.  It’s where I learned.  Absolutely spectacular kelp forests.  Yes, it appears the boat was engulfed quickly and the crew just happened to be on deck or in the wheelhouse, where they wouldn’t be trapped.  Just an awful situation and one that will haunt the entire crew for the rest of their lives.
