Welcome aboard!!

You need to check the alcohol content of your torpedo fuel.
This is probably the most fun job I assigned.

WELCOME ABOARD!

I played SS on an Atari 520ST. What a very long time ago.

Caught my first halibut! I caught it off the Oregon coast, ~35 miles out at sea, at the chicken ranch. On the way out, the people we were following almost hit a killer whale.

The halibut is 34 inches, which is small, but a keeper. I caught it in around 600 ft of water.

Hey guys. It isn't cool to make fun of little people like that.

Have some respect. He looks to be a solid 2ft 10 inches in that picture and that's close to 3.

EDIT: Nice shoes in the second picture.

Nice catch Jason...that would be regarded as quite a large specimen if it were caught off my coastline.

The same can be said of Cod in Norwegian waters but not off the north east coast of England
