They heard I was coming

YeeHaw!

Guess what angle is missing from this news report? Look around, I bet you'll find the answer. I'm just wondering out loud folks, spin as you see fit. Might rethink that T-Shirt though.

Perhaps something more obtuse? This tie perhaps:

A beer to the man or woman who can read the flags...should be easy for the LOG members

Excuse me, but it's "England expects THAT every man will do his duty."

James, I believe the beer stands by you, sir.

And the word "DUTY" must be spelt out letter-by-letter, as it was not in the signal book whole, a curious omission.

Oh Arielle...if a LOG conversation would ever be recorded you would be astonished at our strange breed of nerdiness.

Naval Signal flags would be some of the more "normal topics" I'm not sure we ever fully finished our discussion theorizing why the Royal Navy had such dissproportionate win stats against the French and why that was particularly evident in 3rd rate or better Ships of the Line.

Let is be thankful that LOG conversations are NOT recorded. We'd be in more trouble than we already are.

The LOG's conversations have been recorded. I have verbatim transcripts of all your gatherings. You need to screen your members more carefully.

Nerdiness... guilty as charged! After all we did have a memorable occurance where a LOG member screamed "heresy" every time the "Return of the King" movie deviated from the novel. Between obscure points of theology, 19th century naval warefare, what was or was not done in 19th century Russia (Is outrage!), and fecundity, the average LOG gathering is positively baked in nerdiness, which I submit is an entirely fine and noble thing.

See I told you we should have intstituted strip searches...but you all said "NOOOOOO...that's a violation of my constitutional rights...next thing ya know you'll be profiling people who pass on the scotch..." ahhh...ya bunch Ortho-hippies!

I propose we form the Department of LOGland security...and then...rig the grate.
