No one ever thought you reported someone. It's well known it's just Simon on his self appointed mission to censor any poster he deems as having "unsuitable" opinions. Drinking? I Almost always have buzz on when I post here.

Chef Jim Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Pearl Harbor ain't the only thing getting bombed on December 7th.
Wacka Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 When I was in grad school, I went to a Pearl Harbor party. It was on December 7th, a Saturday that year, and everyone had Hawaiian shirts, plastic leis and someone made Kamakazi jello.

That's like me doing sex-on-the-beach's in Saudi Arabia.

3rdnlng Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Doesn't always work in Dubai either I know, and I only asked the the pool girl for 'em. I guess it was a translaion problem.

Did you guys walk around drunk saying "Remember the Maine"??
3rdnlng Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Kamikazes on Dec. 7 Boo for the historical inaccuracy! Did you guys walk around drunk saying "Remember the Maine"?? I know, they should have waited until early April for the majority of Jello shots for you small minded people, but in the long term and looking at the big picture, the attack on Pearl Harbor was just one giant kamikaze attack.
ExiledInIllinois Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Kamikazes on Dec. 7 Boo for the historical inaccuracy! Did you guys walk around drunk saying "Remember the Maine"?? Not entirely.. Damaged planes turned into "early kamikazes" by crashing into their targets. What I am saying is the mindset was still there. A Jap Zero gets heavily damaged, where are they gonna ditch knowing they aren't coming back to the fleet?... No doubt some ditched into the US fleet when given the chance. Again, not all historically inaccurate. I read one account recently about a sailor from Wyoming (19 @ the time) that is 91 now... He said he seen one plane with its wing shot off make a dive straight for his vessel. That had to be on purpose if the Japanese pilot did not want to live while still sustaining maximum damage to the US fleet.
