Today is the anniversary of that tragic accident. I remember i was in Spain at that time and since all the newspapers were in spanish we guessed that something had gone terribly wrong, i mean why else would there be a estonian ship on the front page. _________________ When someone asks how rich you are, quote Rinox " I don't even have a rusty nail to scratch my butt with...!"

Sucks.
By-the-by, I wouldn't really be too surprised at an Estonian ship sinking anywhere...not because Estonian ships/seamen are crap, but because a good part of the international fleet sails under the Estonian flag for tax reasons.  Or Panama, Gibraltar, and so on._________________ "I find a Burger Tank in this place? I'm-a be a one-man cheeseburger apocalypse." - Coach |

 Too freakin' early, I guess.

Bad shit.
It's good to have a reminder of the not so distant tragedies. |
