Dan1988;3241804 OOC: :o I'm sorry for that on my end - it's the end of the school year said:some[/I] form of normalcy going on (as well as a different point of view), so I'm sorry if I gave off vibes like that. Will do better next time.
OCC: wow dude, WOW, you just over threw EVERY thing I posted, what was the reason other than you didn't like it? there Is a MAJOR difference between giving a different view or adding info to something and just saying "that didn't happen!"
OOC: The simplest answer is that I'm stressed out and very nervous (I could go into detail, but then it would be very personal) - it's the end of the school year and final exams are around the corner - my first exam is Friday, and my last one is the 21st of this month. Does that help?
OCC: you are forgiven, listen to some Mika or Lady Gaga, remember to breath(I hear thats a good thing) and if you need some one to talk I'm here (damn near 24 hours a day)
The thing that bothers me is the persistence of the story. I remember the movie Crimson Tide (1995), wherein the Soviet forces encounter the mad U.S. Captain Frank Ramsey, and his crazed attempt to sink the Soviet Pacific Fleet elements at San Diego. I know it was a stupid film, but the fact that the rumor popped up in that film, seems to give it some credence....From what I'm told, no such fleet exists, in spite of the fact that a large number of America's Trident and Poseidon armed ballistic missile submarines, and three dozen Sturgeon and Los Angeles class nuclear submarines (some armed with Tomahawk nuclear cruise missiles), were at sea at the time of the Soviet backstab. After they lost contact with the lawful US authorities, they followed a nuclear-war contingency plan and sailed for a number of English speaking US allies. Exactly what went where is still not public knowledge, but Canada's acquisition of six dozen Trident C-4 Submarine Launched Ballistic Missiles can be explained under this light. Other such weapons have appeared in the arsenals of Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, and South Africa.
Of course, it seems that most of what the US had at the time got scuttled or blown up to keep the Soviets from getting it.

Crimson Tide wasn't at all bad, for a Bollywood drama. (Their comedies and musicals are usually good, their action flicks, not so much...)
yep it doesThis pretty much sums up life in the USSA today

Crimson Tide wasn't at all bad, for a Bollywood drama. (Their comedies and musicals are usually good, their action flicks, not so much...) Given how it ends (Ramsey sinks most of his intended targets before a Soviet nuclear depth charge ends his assault), it is no wonder that the film is still banned in Commie-Yankee land. The special effects were top notch in '95, and still hold up. Especially the bit where the cruise missiles launched from the Dallas sink both the Kiev and the Kursk.
One rumor that has been running wild since 1987, has been the rumor of the "Phantom Fleet" or "Ghost Fleet". The idea is that there still exists a small set of Seawolf and Trident subamarines that remain along the Pacific Northwest and Atlantic Seaboard, which contain the last "free" remnants of the U.S. Navy. If you believe the story, when they lost communications signals with the U.S. government in 1987 due to the EMP attacks, they disappeared and remained undetected, only to appear to gain food and supplies in different cities. Has anyone heard this story?
