Simon, as submariner do you find any realism in "Crimson Tide" whatsoever or is it plain fiction?

Perhaps not but there seems to be a strong correlation. One must confess to some other non-Commonwealth pwnee's such as Boney and Turkey, so it may not be definitive.

Turn Sky TV on (Australia and New Zealand) at present, and all you get is the damn wedding. Now I know even nowadays there a some Royalists left in NZ, but not enough to have this wedding rammed down our throat.

proper way to watch this movie is to state loudly whenever someone comes into the room "They call me Deacon Blue", then continually mumble same barely audibly until they leave the room...

For some reason, this video has been making the rounds. I totally expected the dolphin to squirt some water out its mouth at the cat and nail it.

Montreal managed to hold off Boston in the last Game 6 of the first round and they will also play a Game 7 tomorrow night! 4 of 8 first round series come down to 1 game, winner take all.
