I guess he just wants to tell us that this is a great sunset. As we say in Germany (well, at least where I live): A carrot sometimes is just a carrot.

This topic is about screenshots and the first one is as close to a real photo as it can get.

Well, I agree that sometimes a Rose is just a Rose...
As Shakespeare wrote in Romeo and Juliet,
"What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet..."




A Carrot, however, is a much more complex Being. For example, Carrots were yellow or black or purple from the days of the ancient Egyptians until the Dutch bred the hybrid Orange version we know and love today. In that regard, the sunset picture with its subtly changing skies from purplish overhead to orange on the horizon could well have been intended as a visual metaphor for the History of the Carrot. One never knows unless one asks...and there is no such thing as a stupid question. .....usually.




Then again, there is always the case of the deadly airborne torpedoe-carrot.

Perhaps I should have told you that my english teacher was convinced that a carrot is a symbol for the penis as well. Since then we use to say that sometimes a carrot is just a carrot.

Default Gotta love my crew

Well after my first patrol (bagged two destoyers) we came home and the whole boat was given leave until January 7th (can't play again untill then) Because i'm getting married on the 29th of december and of course there will be no time to go out sea again untill after the homeymoon. But as fate would have it I realized I left something on the ship and upon my return I was startled to find my fiance painted on the side of the boat!! as well as the two kills we got! so I thought I would share the pic with you guys... it gives a new meaning to the term
sugar boat
