So, finally I had enough renown, and got myself a IXB. While I was out on my first patrol, my wife came in the room, and said "You're always on that computer. Who do you think you are?"

So I said "I'm Hardegen".

She said "I've got a headache", and left...
That is just a hoot man! Good luck with your real first mate! If I said 'I'm Topp' to my wife after a question like that she would shoot me:rotfl:then ask who is Topp? Oh well, she says get off the computer and I say fine going to the bar then she says go ahead and play your game. She loves me anyway I guess I will keep her another 12 years. Besides, I need my laundry done after a 10 week patrol in the same duds
