Ah, see, either way I win. :haha:

Anyway, it's because of the fact that our boats keep crashing into things that we are good at picking them up again. :03:

That's a completely different girl than the one from the first photo btw...

:sign_yeah::yeah:

Little more than what is already known I'd wager considering NATO has been stalking Akulas and vice versa since they were introduced into service. Plus it will probably be an early model Akula which I'd wager NATO knows most things about already.

I heard its going to be the Kilo class Alrosa that going to the exercise not an akula.

I dont know how long it has been since any of yall have been 18 but i know plenty of 18 and 19 yr olds who look younger than her.. Also you must consider the fact that tho similar to Europeans and Americans.. Russians are slightly different in appearance than us do to genetic variation.

Without knowing a persons age for sure it can be very hard to tell how old they are. I am 34 years old but have had many people of varying ages some older and some younger than me think that I was as young as 18 which is 16 years off.Many people miss my age by 5 or 6 years which is about reasonable for the average person guessing another persons age.

Both of these girls could be as young as or younger than 18 I'd be very surprised if either of them are over 25 though judging by their apparent rank you can safely assume that they at the most 20 or 21.I dont think that the minor differences are going to make a 40 year old woman look like she is 18.

Also every human being looks different do to genetic variation.

P.S. I kind like the second woman more though dont tell my wife....her parents are from the Ukraine so shed
have my balls for checking out a younger and Russian woman.....:har:

I feel like that Eskimo in that La Quenta TV advertisement

"No body needs a clue!"

:D

The work of cartoonist Jack Davis. He's retired now, but that guy drew like a house on fire. :up: Even his preliminary studies look grand.

When did "The Russians are Coming" originally come out anyway? some time in the 60's I assume.

I saw it for the first time back in maybe 1984 on VHS when I was a kid but I know it is a bit older than that.

You would be correct, way back in 66:

I have not seen this movie yet!

It has its funny moments. I honestly don't know how well it would translate to today's audience.

Know what you mean! But if one has some knowledge about the era of the movie and what do they satirize, one can enjoy the movie.

A few time ago, during a party, I show a monty python DVD (1º season best skeetchs). A friend of mine could not find anything funny about what she seen (it was the "gang of old ladies" skeetch).

I remember watching Dr. Strangelove with The Frau. She totally did not get the humour or the satire. In her defense, she was living in Germany at the time of the cold war and such things are probably not funny.

What makes it funny to me is that I knew people in the military like the characters. Not as exaggerated of course, but the mind set of the movie was real.

I have one friend who sees nothing funny at all in Dr. Strangelove, and another friend - who teaches a course in the history of cinema - and his class (mostly kids in their mid 20's) all loved it. IIRC it was released a year or two after the Cuban Missile Crisis.

The Russians Are Coming is a great flick, but it ain't going to hold up as well as Strangelove - it's hard to beat Peter Sellers, George C. Scott, Slim Pickins, and Kubrick - all at the top of their game.

Dr. Strangelove was one of my favorite movies years ago. I wonder how people today would react to it. Humor doesn't always translate well. In the same vein, I also liked The President's Analyst, but the same questions apply here. Has anybody seen this one recently?

IMO, Strangelove was brilliant satire. It basically served up the cold war mindset on a platter, turkey and all! :salute:

Not recently, but I did see it when I was 10 -only once- and I still remember enough of it to recall seeing it when I was a kid (when he got kidnapped by the Canadian "Secret Service" the entire theatre erupted in cheers - I'm a Canuk eh?).

Sadly, the wall may be down, but I think the cold war remains. Also the level of paranoia, generally, is as high as ever, so I think young people today can still appreciate these films.
