Experts believe an unmanned, missing Russian cruise ship might be making an unexpected landing in Europe soon.

^I have no contact with this page :hmmm: broken or just gone.

[Jimbuna]

I remember this from a couple of years back and IMO the Canadians were wrong for leaving her to drift to heaven only knows where.

[Cybermat47]

Coming soon! An incredible true story of survival on the high seas! The last surviving rats of the Lubya Orlova tell us about their encounter with Locutus of Borg and twenty thousand Cybermen!

Damn, I need some sleep :arrgh!:

The rats won't leave until the ship sinks.

If it was headed to the US coast, scrap metal guys would be hurrying to attach paddle wheels and pontoons to their pickups. :D

[BrucePartington]

Something this large and hazardous and no one is able to pick it up on radar? :hmmm:
Back in '44 they would have picked up the snorkel of a U-boat.

[Admiral Lutjens]

Reminds me of all that crap that washed up on Hawaii and the west coast after the Fukushima Tsunami.

Well unlike the U-Boats no one is actively looking for her.

[Platapus]

I would imagine that Canada has some liability in this.

I really have to wonder how you know what your urine tastes like.

How fast will rats, cut off from all other food supplies, cannibalize themselves into extinction?

The basic definition of "urine therapy" is using (your own) urine internally or externally as a way to aid or sustain your heath. Urine therapy, which includes drinking, injecting, massaging with-, and/or bathing in- urine, is an ancient practice that is used today, not only in times of sickness, but also in times of good health for preventive health maintenance. It has been claimed to have proven helpful in a great number of varying illnesses, ranging from a simple cold and a throat-ache, to tuberculosis and asthma, from minor skin problems such as itching to major skin problems such as eczema, psoriasis and even skin cancer. But you probably ask, "How can your own urine benefit your health? Besides, isn�t it toxic?"

Urine as a lifesaver:
During the NBC Nightly News on October 16, 1992, Tom Brokaw reported that, "In Egypt, rescue workers found a 37-year old man alive in earthquake rubble. He survived almost 82 hours by drinking his own urine. His wife, daughter and mother would not and they died" (http://www.all-natural.com/urine.html (http://www.all-natural.com/urine.html)). We�ve all heard stories of individuals who have either lived or died by being trapped in places without food or water for days. In those stories, the survivors were always the ones that drank their own urine. The ones that died probably could not overcome the misguided thoughts that urine is an unhealthy waste product of the body. But it�s not; urine is simply a substance that the body does not need at the time, and a substance that the body secretes. And sometimes, it�s a lifesaver.
What�s in urine?
Urine, 95% of which is water, 2.5% of which is urea, and 2.5% of which is a mixture of minerals, salts, hormones, and enzymes, is not a toxic waste product. Urine is a blood byproduct and though it contains some body waste, it is non-toxic. In 1975, Dr. A.H. Free, published his book Urinalysis in Clinical Laboratory Practice, in which he presents a few critical nutrients found in urine::know: In a word, if ya don't have Hamm's and yer snowed in...PISS OFF MATE:woot:

Urine as a lifesaver

I like Cody Lund's take on this subject:

People don't survive because they drank their urine, they survive in spite of drinking their urine.

[swamprat69er]

I would say that drinking urine is on par with drinking any american beer.

[Admiral Lutjens]

Haven't you ever seen the movie Canadian Bacon?:har:

[swamprat69er]

Not only seen it, but I used to drive by John Candys house every week.

[Aktungbby]

Some brews of the Great Northwest ain't called weasal piss fer nuthin'!

[Wolferz]

You've not experienced piss beer quite like Schlitz beer I'd wager.:smug:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Schlitz_Brewing_Company

Always loved their motto...

"When you're out of Schlitz you're out of beer"

Should have read this way...
"When you're out of Schlitz you're full of Schlitz"

I bet the last rat on that ship is going to be a monster!

Good, at least I know not to go to Canada and say 'Canadian Beer Sucks!'.:har:

If you were to say that in any bar I am in, I would guarantee you would crawl out of the bar after I poured lots of beer down your neck. At my expense. Just to see you get drunk.:har::har:

In 2002 as I was preparing for my second deployment aboard the USS Harry S. Truman, I recall there was a Canadian destroyer tied up to the opposite pier as us. One of the Canadians came up to me and said "Come on aboard, we have $1 beers!" I wanted to so bad, but I was only 20 at the time and was LITERALLY walking down the pier to board ship for deployment next morning.

:/\\!!

Beer, including Canadian beer, is for sissies.

Real He Men drink Whiskey, and while Canada does make some passable spirits there is certainly no better in the world than our top domestic brands.

20 is legal in Canada. Boozing age is 19

[Admiral Lutjens]

Ohh trust me, I know this. But that destroyer was tied up to OUR pier. Hence, I had to be 21. :shifty:

[swamprat69er]

I thought about that right after I posted.:wah:
