Bluewolf

Class!!

Yep.. totally, We can drink to that..

Most of my reading was done in my pre-teen early teen years, growing up with Marvel, 2000AD and such like comics were a big part of my youth, Obviously as football, punk, clubbing and girls started popping up it fell by the wayside although I have always maintained an interest over the years on and off... Some great artists out there and with modern computer technology the artwork is really being brought to life so it's always held more than a passing interest for me. Heavy Metal is another superb Magazine but I was not aware of that in my younger days I only stumbled on that in later life.. When I look back at characters like the Hulk and have seen them go from black&white pages and early tv attempts with Lou Ferrigno for example to full screen CGI films has been amazing really.. All those characters brought to life on the big screen.. Glad to have seen it all in my lifetime

Alright Crew... This is acting captain Mulder requesting everyone to the Command Deck... @nudge @CaaC - John @Mel81x @Azeem I would like to introduce our newest crew member @Rucksackfranzose Wall-E And of course our other 2 Robot companions R2 and Robbie First order of business is selecting a Captain... I am out and so is Nudge so we could either leave it to Robbie or select Ellen ( Mel81x ) as she/he ( does it really matter?? ) has shown that they are also a competent flight officer.. Previous experience on The Nostromo is a clincher for me.. Also on the Agenda, If we are happy with our ship it's called the 'Arcadia' the fact that we managed to rob this from another bunch of space pirates shows just how bad ass we are.. Happy to take alternative names though if any are forthcoming. Also, and I have given this some thought that our sudden descent into Piracy was quick, It seems we did not hesitate to stab good intentions in the back and leave them buried on an unexplored dead planet... However, to help us all sleep a little better at night can I suggest we form ourselves into the 'A-Team' of space piracy.. Travelling the far reaches of space kicking arse and helping out the down trodden, A bit like the The Rebel Alliance if you will, that way we get to still behave badly, blow shit up, shoot things and all feel like we have done the universe a big favour... We can of course rob all the decent technology and supplies we find along the way as this ship does not run on solar winds alone.. Lastly Wall-E needs to get into Nudges quarters and clean up all those empty bottles of booze as I don't fancy getting hit in the head with multiple glass bottles floating about if we should lose gravity at some point.. Any other business???

Yea you say that but bet the shark was all..

Yea I was thinking that... Cool stuff!

For most it would bring back terrible memories of the scene from Jaws when the immortal line 'you're going to need a bigger boat' was uttered. But when a team of divers spotted the largest great white shark on the planet they only hesitated to grab their cameras before they jumped into the sea. The enormous predator named Deep Blue is up to 50 years old, weights 2.5 tons and measures 20ft long. It was drawn to the water around Hawaii for what one diver described as an 'all you can eat buffet' - to feed on a dead sperm whale. Deep Blue was last spotted in Mexico in 2013 where it was fitted with a tracker which is how divers were able to identify it this time. Conservation photographer Juan Oliphant was one of the divers who took the plunge along with with marine biologist Ocean Ramsey What a monster!!! Think I might have waited until it's belly was full before jumping in.. Full story here.. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6602153/Largest-great-white-shark-Deep-Blue-spotted-Hawaii.html

It's not until the end that a lot of scenes come together and make sense... I thought it was very good

If there is a danger we might get killed throwing our weight around in the galaxy I suggest something like this to be conducting our business in..

Now we also need a flag for our ship then..

A bit like the 3 laws of Robotics... If any action that should conflict with it's programming then it either forces a shut down or locks people out of the ship and does not allow them back in you mean..

Yes of course... The Hofstadter-Moebius loop..

Don't think I don't know why you want that particular robot along... Robby’s coolest feature is the ability to synthesize any type of matter with no trouble at all. He’s able to create hyper-advanced spaceship components in a matter of hours, and has no difficulty making a dress for Altaira which is covered in diamonds and emeralds. That’s right, folks: Robby is the king of bling. You know what else he’s the king of? Bootlegging alcohol. When the ship’s stinking drunk of a cook asks Robby to produce some extra whisky for him, Robby replies with: “Would 60 gallons be sufficient?” And you better believe he makes those 60 gallons, even duplicating the bottle and label of the cook’s favorite brand. Cool choice though.. non threatening, unlikely to become unhinged and can create spare parts if needed... vote for nudge as captain revoked! All night drinking sessions and ultra smooth planetary landing do not go hand in hand...

Make that 2 robots then... One who can play Chess and a Lost In Space 2nd series type model to accompany Ripley when we want to put the frightners on hostile alien species.. We need to vote for ships Captain as well... can't be me as it's already been pointed out that I sometimes have trouble controlling myself and putting everyone at risk although you would all follow me to your doom and destruction because I am likable..

So the crew so far is made up of the following... Bluewolf - Mulder Nudge - Scully Caac John - Science Officer Spock Mel81x - Ellen Ripley Azeem - Zachary Smith... wants to secretly be me We need a Robot as well I reckon...

This crew is shaping up nicely... any hostile Alien encounters and guess who is getting shoved out front.. Curious how you got to be her though??? must have picked ''what difference does it make' on the gender question...

I am starting to see you in a Zachary Smith type role... Think we would need to put that one to the vote

Damn.. run out of up votes and it's only 3pm We would need a good science officer we can trust, one that lacks emotion.. sees things in black and white.. We need to start working on a name for our ship and our future colony...

Given these new facts sod waiting, lets build our own ship..

Perfect match!!

So then.. Which Sci-Fi character are you??? Take the quiz https://onedio.co/content/which-sci-fi-character-are-you-11418 Apparently I am Fox Mulder... Needless to say, you’re a loony. You’ve dedicated your whole life to learning. No danger can stand in your way to the truth. Your power source is your obsessive curiosity. However, sometimes you have trouble controlling yourself and you don’t really realize that you're risking your loved ones’ lives. Yet, people keep trusting you and backing you up, as you have a determined personality like a warrior’s. They know that finding the truth and facing it is not a job for the ones who are, well, completely sane...

True what you say about it not being as bad as it sounds, just going from a place like here to a place like there would take a while to adjust to, it would seem like you have just been thrust into an Indiana Jones movie... "I really do need that Toilet Roll behind you"

Crazy stuff.... I would never sleep at all because I think I heard something rustling in the corner of the room and I would be on edge the whole time, I don't mind them obviously it's just nature and in some respects it would be great to be seeing things like that on a daily or weekly basis but even so I wouldn't want to be doing a 5 point check every time I sat down on the sofa to watch a bit of tv and as for walking around in flip flops.. I think not!! Must be good when you are used to it and know the potential dangers and all that and what to be careful of, can you imagine waking up in the morning to a see gecko staring you in the face smirking...

I think that reading up on whats dangerous and whats not would be a priority for me if I was living in a place like that... Do you check under the bed and shake piles of clothing just in case?? I would be checking my shoes the lot as a matter of routine..

I would be worried that it might just want a nibble....
