gwalchmai Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 You know how the Navy decided the term "Commodore" was somehow demeaning and didn't want to use it anymore, so they changed to "Rear Admiral, Lower Half"? Maybe it's time to adopt a "Humanity, Lower Half". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gun Shark Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 But this was "For God."Not to turn this into a religious debate as I’m one of the farthest people from religious believes, but how do we know God wasn’t the reason the Bible saved his skin the first time when it stopped the arrow? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul53 Posted November 26, 2018 Author Share Posted November 26, 2018 Wasn't trying to turn into a religious discussion. I just thought the different motivation made it a whole nother subject. Sorry if I offended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times do you get to make God save you. Maybe they pushed him too much. Remember the old joke. "God where were you when I went down for the third time"? He said, "I saved your twice already, I thought you must really want this, so I granted your wish!". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commodore is used for a captain by rank who is on board, but not the Captain of the ship, even if the Captain is a mere ensign. Rear Admirals all used to get two stars, which used to really piss off Marine and Army Brigadier Generals who wound up saluting officers who were their juniors in rank. ??

I knew a girl that had the 7 army values in chinese symbols tattooed on her shoulder, characters were about 2 inches tall. She was fond of showing it off, always wearing sleeveless tops. We walked into a gas station one night, the clerk behind the counter was Asian. He glanced at her shoulder, said "oh, Squirrel Rising!, nice tattoo." She started freaking out that that's not what it said. After a few seconds of that he told her "I have no idea what it says, I can't read that s#!t" It was very amusing from a spectator's perspective. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tous Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I have 'Squirrel Rising ' tattooed across my chest. It is an ancient Chinese good luck symbol. Or, so I was told. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul53 Posted November 27, 2018 Author Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) I'd planned to have the unmistakable outline of defibrillator paddles done on my chest. Well, progress being what it is, they're moving away from them for defib. Simply put, the paddles were direct current. they've switched to Alternating Current. Now the current is low enough that they don't need the big honking paddles. I shed a tear over the change. It was kinda savage humor to yell "CLEAR" and promptly shock the pt. Anybody still touching any part of the stretcher or within about 1/4 inch of same would get bit (shocked) and jump. Really savage and unprofessional, but funny as hell.
