Like what I said on Ron's Board.

As Elizabeth Gould, team member and a professor of psychology and co-director of the Program in Neuroscience at Princeton University said:

"It's not over till the last neuron dies".

Albeit I'm not sure that's true as I reckon you could mount a solid case that some "Old Submariners" that hang around on this board are truly Brain Dead but the message hasn't got through yet!!!!!

on subject of neurons dying  was "worm" Graham on the TJ with us Mad Dog?  If he was I have to tell you I attended his CPO initiation a few years back  The relationship to the post, I was swapping sea stories three times today  one in email one with the wife of the son of the Martini's cousin, who is stationed at Bangor and the third one was with a good friend who served on the Terible T when I was on the AsproMaru. any ways the subject of cruel pranks came up and I couldn't remember if Worm was on TJ or Aspro when we taped him up with duct tape and put him on the mess decks with the instruction to only freehim if we were flooding or on fire
