You could always use protection of some kind.

(Sorry. I need to wash my mind out with soap!)

What kind of soap do you recommend?

Just out of idle curiosity, mind you.

Afternoon all. Had to fire up the work laptop so I could submit my timesheets for last week and this week. One more work item to go: register for next month's conference.

Much distraction right now. There seems to be a coup underway in Iran. (And just after I learned that, our Iranian hairdresser called to wish us a Happy New Year).

Here's a photo of the Mellon at dock. She's the ship to the left (rear), very similar to the one in the foreground. (That's the Puget Sound and the Olympic mountain range in the background.)

I must say, she looks extremely ship-shape and tidy. Excellent paint work.

“I am SO never getting on a plane with this carpola going on.”

It is a bit unnerving to see a muslim fed. airport employee going over a 65 year old nun with a wand........(another thread)

The Mellon was commissioned in 1967; they’ve done excellent work on her.

Good photo - it looks cold! I don’t see any visible rust, though!

I’ll say! So many terrorist acts have been committed by elderly nuns, retired Navy wives from Florida, and infants under a year old. We have to be very careful about those!

I noticed the ructions in Iran. Let us know if anything actually *happens* that makes a difference.

It was actually comparatively warm — up around 50F or so. There is rust (inevitably) but not a lot and there is painting and other work going on.

Lots of painting, according to Anoreth! It was 50-odd here today, too. Still very muddy from the downpours on Christmas.

It looks pretty big, from the news I'm reading and the videos I've seen. Mousavi's nephew believe dead, Khamenei airlifted to a military base, which means Ahmadinejad is in serious trouble. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtzjRh5DCKY shows a crowd storming a hanging despite police firing at them, attacking the truck which was the mobile platform used in the hanging, then cutting down two men from the gallows.

It helps that LoM can translate what's being said.

We are praying...

Yup. There's one large area about to be painted, another passageway where we were warned not to touch anything or white (sanding) would be all over us.

We've been having an unusually dry and cold winter here. Blue sky and bright sun for days in a row. Very unusual.

But at least it's not good moss-growing weather.

You know what would be a money maker?

“I flew through Detroit Airport and Survived” t-shirts.

Happy New Year everyone. :-)

I would have a huge pile of those, I’ve been through DTW so many times. In fact, my first-ever flight departed from DTW.

Best wishes to all in Iran. I’ll make it my prayer intention for the night.

Well, what ever you do, try not to fly through there when terrorists are trying to blow planes up on arrival, OK?

Did you have a nice Christmas?
