Peanuts is dead

Yes, I served my years at Ft. Mead. I worked in the NSA building. Occasional TDY on Boomers (It was always a boomer)... I did TDY on an Aircraft Carrier once and even flew twice on an EP3 out of Japan... USN 1988-1993...

And yeah. I had SCI clearance, I cannot tell most of my stories.

I know , there is a lot we can't talk about.
I had a TS crypto, EYES ONLY , clearance, I don't know if they have the " EYES ONLY classification any more or not.
Most of that was for people like Kissinger and SOS A. Haig.

Yeah. I didn't want to get too deep into it. He didn't captain any of them though. So he served in early nuclear powered subs, actually helped design the power plants that worked in the subs, smart cookie, probably the smartest man to serve as President. Too bad that didn't translate into "good president" or even "good decisions"... He was a patriot though, and the most impactful ex President ever, he did more good as an ex President than he did as President. If you were on boomers in the 80s you would have had some of my friends on board... CT(I)s...

I would TDY on boomers back in the day. Sometimes I even slept on missiles and/or torpedoes on temporary racks set up for us as all the coffins were assigned to the folks that were stationed on the boats.

If you slept on a torpedo, you are a Boomer sailor, whether you completed quals or not.

No, silly. You're probably thinking of jellyfish, or worms (the kind that'll be eating Peanuts). If you're thinking, that is.

Jellyfish have a single opening, the mouth, which also functions as the anus. This is part of their gastrovascular cavity where food is ingested and waste is expelled.

Flatworms (Platyhelminthes), including species like Fasciola (liver fluke), have a blind sac body organization with one opening for both ingestion and egestion.

Sea Anemones and other Cnidarians possess a gastrovascular cavity with a single opening that acts as both mouth and anus.

The xenoturbella, a marine worm, has a single opening for both intake of food and expulsion of waste. If Peanuts is buried at sea, Peanuts can get recycled. :thup:

I haven't seen any reputable person say Carter was not a great man for what he did after he left office.

Of course you haven't. I'm familiar with your penchant for defining words.
