Default Having Fun With Sasquatch

Have you seen those TV ads from some junk food distributor?...they are kinda funny...and center around a bunch of clueless kids teasing Bigfoot out in the forest... in the end they get their own rear ends kicked.

I was reminded of those ads when quite by accident I found myself in a somewhat similar situation with a Japanese anti-sub ship.

I was in very shallow water trying to get some recon pics. Then this warship detected me and naturally came rushing in at a 90 degree angle. Problem was... my port side was a close as possible to the shoreline so he really couldn't make a run past me.... Only about a quarter of his keel made it past my boat when his bow hit land.

Also he apparently was too "dumb" to circle around and come at me from the bow or stern.

So there he was... he couldn't get his stern over me to drop his ashcans without blowing himself up too. So he kept backing off and rushing in. Time after time. While he was over me and couldn't fire his guns at me , I popped the scope, got the photos and backed out of there until I reached deep water and dropped below a thermal to disappear...leaving behind one frustrated water warrior....

Well....I thought it was rather humorous...

What I want to know is how you managed to get to deep water was he still land bouncing?

Also your lucky he dident blow up and sink on top of you

Lastly .. only one picket?

Mods?.... and trade all the fun for unrelenting constant misery?...why?....



...and I got to deep water by backing out of the harbor where the picket whet back on his patrol route and left me alone.

...and yes I kept waiting for him to call his buds but they stayed way ..but I ain't crazy enough to complain 'bout that..

My small collection of the commercials he's talking about:

http://learnabit.homeserver.com/lab/JackLinks_SaltShaker.mov

http://learnabit.homeserver.com/lab/JackLinks_ShavingCream.mov

http://learnabit.homeserver.com/lab/JackLinks_WaterBowl.mov


*** --->>> You have to right click on the link, pick "SAVE TARGET AS" ... download it, then play it. They are all 15 seconds or less in playback time.

For the life of me, I could never figure out how to auto run Apple's Quicktime Movies within your browser. Sorry for the hassle[s].

Anyway:
I kind of like the Buzzer one and the Shaving Cream one as the best.
