I remember watching it when I was a kid, I didn't understand it, I just remember thinking it was cool.

I think this snail did a pretty good estimate of a world map.

Looks like a woman's neck to me.
Yeah, but what about the Zombies?

This was quite a nasty surprise and rather too close for comfort. No damage, but went on for ages.

In honour of ANZAC day I thought I would post an extract of the ships log of HMS Argus taken on the 10th of November 1942.
The Argus was was an old (very old) aircraft carrier on her way to Malta as part of a convoy, when she was attacked by Stuka's and Torpedo bombers. She also narrowly avoided a submarine torpedo attack. I think this was the same convoy where HMS Eagle (another aircraft carrier) was sunk. This was not the only attack she survived on the journey.
My father was in this ship serving as an able signalman. I guess my brothers and I came pretty close to never being born this day. Makes you appreciate everything these men did.
Extract of the log:
17:00. Enemy aircraft detected by RDF
17:05. Action Stations
17:10. Attacked by dive bombers 1 hit, 4 killed
17:20. Attacked by torpedo bombers
17:45. Secured from action stations
20:28 - 22:22: Several emergency turns
22:22 Near miss by torpedoes

Unfortunately the Aurora took a diversion from my part of the country, but a spectacular display to open ANZAC day none the less.

Such a nice guitar, it would be a shame not to play it.
When in doubt make alcohol with it.
