"You don't understand and I don't have the time to explain.:

Well, I read Tom Clancy's book "Submarine". It talked about all the things a captain has to do to become a captain, how its the hardest thing in the world to become a sub captain. And it didn't say anything about them getting canned for unavoidable accidents while on a mission in shallow water. You weren't there when the orders were given, you don't know the objective, nor the circumstances surrounding it. You define ignorance with every word you type.

Husband just woke up and here is what he has to say about you and your Tom Clansey book: OK I will sit here with my 21 years as a qualified sub driver and defer to you, with your vast couch-potato hours reading escapist fiction.

Well, I read Tom Clancy's book "Submarine".

And I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night. BFD.
