  1. @TEE2ND Black flies love me.
  2. @EastBostonAlert @FDNYbuffL132 Thanks!
  3. @SteveMichaelsII Where I'm going, a little bit of both.
  4. Heading up to North Country for the weekend, no cell service or internet there. See y'all Monday or Tuesday.
  5. @EMTmik1890 Yup, they're on scene up there.
  6. @nika7k @n1vux @walthampatch @brianjdamico Since the fire is forward, I'd be more worried about the battery, if it's on board.
  7. @n1vux @nika7k @walthampatch @brianjdamico True, but they've been there since March.
  8. @n1vux @brianjdamico @WalthamPatch The guns are much more fun now, too.
  9. @nika7k @n1vux @walthampatch @brianjdamico Would have been done when they first pulled in, it's "cold" now.
  10. @n1vux @WalthamPatch @brianjdamico And the small arms are probably all on the crew barge, anyways.
  11. @n1vux @WalthamPatch @brianjdamico Yup, only small arms on board, reactor is present but shut down.
  12. @brianjdamico TLAM's are nothing compared to the SUBROC: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SUBROC
  13. @WalthamPatch @brianjdamico They still retain the capability to carry nuclear cruise missiles, but they don't routinely carry them.
  14. @Chief717c 1996.
  15. @AvProAerial Interesting! I know they still have an FD at the field, (obviously).
  16. @Chief717c STS.
  17. @cornboy72 They just repeated it, too.
  18. The 'nuclear' part of 'nuclear submarine' refers to the propulsion, not the weapons capabilities.
  19. @AvProAerial Maybe they don't have excess capacity, but Logan does?
  20. @sabourinj When I lived there, both rides were about the same.
