I about fell over when Blade uttered a quote from Miyamoto Mushashi ( The book of five rings 1645) during the stake out of the familiar cop.

“When you understand the nature of a thing...you know what it’s capable off”

This applies to Leftists as well as Vampires...as they are both blood suckers....LOL

Hey! Anyone old enough to remember Wagon Train is old enough to confuse it with Rawhide LOL!
Oh my, LOL! at myself.

Well, both are great shows. Been watching episodes of both I’ve found on link sites.

I’ve watched every episode and dont recall any reference to AGW.

I like Last Ship as it has quite surprised me with several plot twists....stuff I didnt see coming....Like baltimore and the chosen.

Now they’ve added a gorgeous little brunette special ops girl.

Sounds PC, no thanks. Just que up "Victory at Sea" and I am good.

Last Ship is a fairly good show -- and one of the few which makes a point of reminding people that the US military is a force for good.

If it makes a difference, the new addition is portrayed as an Israeli officer.

I'll leave it to the veterans here to weigh in how accurate a portrayal the show is on navy life.

You’d be better off downloading Victory at Sea.

Speaking of how the plague started -- this character should win an award for TV villain of the year. ( And he reminds me of a liberal)

Yep he more than GW caused the plague to mutate and become super deadly to humans.
He is weasely, and cold blooded. Character traits of liberals for sure.

My husband would enjoy that...we need to watch it.

Notice the little girl near the end of the video? She’s the daughter of the woman from whom we have gotten our dogs since 2000. :)

The inspiration for "The Last Ship" was the thought of what might happen if global warming were to melt the polar caps and release an ancient microbe from melted permafrost in the Arctic. If it had been buried long enough ago, the majority of the population of the planet wouldn't have built up any kind of immunity to it, so its release would be devastating.

"I'm deeply concerned about global warming," Steinberg says. "I mean, it's 110 degrees right now in Rome. It's 90-plus in Portland, which never gets weather like that. We haven't dealt with it that much on the show in terms of verbalizing it, but this is a global-warming catastrophe show. As to people not really talking about it on the show, they've got bigger fish to fry. They've got to deal with the problem in front of them and try to solve it."

I can live with liberal directors as long as they don't let their personal beliefs get in the way of telling a good story.

So you have a good breeder...that’s great.

They’re impressive dogs! Beautiful, too. I much prefer larger breeds.

Friend of mine had a couple of Rhodesian Ridgebacks. No one wanted to walk up to his gate, but I would and those big babies would be all over me.

Great dogs, wish I had the room for a large dog or two.
