Few of you probably saw a cartoon called Star Blazers (Space Battleship Yamato). Anyway, when I was a kid I watched this show and they had different colored uniforms for differnt units / jobs. Well guess what the US Navy is doing on the new Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier?

hahaha telitubbies!!!!!!!

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
John Stuart Mill (1806 - 1873)

well, when you see a show that you watched when you were a kid, it usually sucks ass. You need to be a kid to enjoy it

I can still watch it, but I'll admit it's mostly for nostalgia.
