    Scene from a popular Space Movie: (it's ok really)

    Valiant: Engine Room. Well Done. Malaya?
    Mogador: Valiant, you'd better get down here. Hurry.
    Valiant: Pundua, take charge.

    Valiant cruises full speed to help the PE.

    Malaya: No, sir! You'll flood yourself if you get any closer...!
    Valiant: He'll die --!
    Mogador: He's dead already, Val.
    Valiant: Oh, God.

    Valiant: PE!
    PE: Convoy -- out of danger?
    Valiant: Yes --

    PE slips a little lower in the seas...

    PE: Don't grieve, mighty warship -- it's logical: the good of the many outweighs --
    Valiant: ...the good of the few...
    PE: Or the Austrian.

    Valiant moves in closer his bow touches the bow of the PE.

    PE: I never took the Battle of Jutland test -- until now. What do you think of my solution?
    Valiant: PE....!
    PE: I have been -- and always will be -- your friend... Live. Long. And. Let the bb's fly.

    PE succumbs to the damage and slips beneath the waves. Malaya and Mogador move in for survivors.

    Valiant: No....!

    LATER ON BACK AT SCAPA FLOW....

    Valiant: In accordance with naval traditions and Article 184 Her Majesty's Regulations, we are assembled here today to pay final respects to our honored dead.

    Malaya plays the bagpipes....

    Valiant: And yet, in the midst of our sorrow it should be noted that this death takes place in the shadow of new life, the sunrise on a build session day, a day that our beloved comrade gave his life to protect and nourish. He did not feel that sacrifice a vain or empty one -- and we will not debate his profound wisdow, in these proceedings. Of my friend, I can only say this, that of all the keels I've seen laid down, his was the most -- British.

    Hey, if Monty Python didn't have to explain it during the Holy Grail credits then why should I? :)

    To help you guys figure out who the Admiral is in Gascan's Battlecruiser Song, I present one more hint, followed by a totally unrelated song. Are you ready?

    the hint:
    There was a WWII heavy cruiser named after this battlecruiser skipper/admiral/guy/person/thingie.






    And now, for the moment you've all been waiting for! Something completely different!

    The Allied Sailor's Song:
    (sung to the tune of "sink the bismark")

    Way back in 1992, or maybe '93,
    I sailed the S.S. Tuna, the chicken of the sea,
    I didn't sink the bismark, no matter what they say,
    For when I seen the enemy ships, I sailed the other way.

    I seen some cruisers coming, and I saw a battleship.
    They were full of fighting spirit, and their souls were full of hope,
    Our admiral yelled, "Now hear this!"
    (he really flipped his lid)
    "We haven't yet begun to fight!" (what's more, I never did!)

    *chorus*
    Oh, I didn't sink the bismark and I didn't fight at all,
    I spent my time on benches and I really had a ball,
    Talkin' all that smack while my ship was overhauled,
    livin' it up on soda pop and rubbing alcohol.

    Then they made me the skipper of a flower-class corvette,
    I shot a battleship, a cruiser, and a submarine,
    I did it all before the Axis launched a single ship.

    Roma, our Italian ship, was a-sailin' near the weeds,
    And we were laying minefields, we must 'a laid a mile,
    The Admiral yelled "Hey Roma, is that a U-boat I see?"
    Roma says, "It's-a not-a my boat, it-a no belong to me!"

    *chorus*
    Oh, I didn't sink the bismark and I didn't fight at all,
    I spent my time on benches and I really had a ball,
    Talkin' all that smack while my ship was overhauled,
    livin' it up on soda pop and rubbing alcohol.

    And now the battle's over, and my story can be told,
    about my fearless fleeing, and the floaters, and the sunk,
    I stayed inside the harbor, away from the battle scenes,
    I spent my time upon the shore, a-fightin' for me lunch.

    *chorus*
    Oh, I didn't sink the bismark and I didn't fight at all,
    I spent my time on benches and I really had a ball,
    Talkin' all that smack while my ship was overhauled,
    livin' it up on soda pop and rubbing alcohol.

    *end*

    Well, in nineteen and fourteen we took a little trip
    along with Sodak and the mighty Mississip.
    We took a little bacon and we took a little beans,
    And we caught the bloody Axis near the town of halifax .

    We fired our guns and the Axis kept a'comin.
    There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
    We fired once more and they began to runnin'
    down the Atlantic to the North sea..

    Well, I see'd Warspite walkin down the street
    talkin' to a pirate by the name of Mogador [
    He gave Mogador a drink that he brung with the mighty Tennessee
    and the pirate said he'd help us drive the Axis in the sea.

    The French said Sodak, you'd better run,
    for a Mushashi’s a comin' with a bullet in his gun.
    Old Sodak said he didn't give a dang,
    he's gonna whip the britches off of the Musashi
    We fired our guns and the Axis kept a'comin.
    There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
    We fired once more and they began to runnin'
    down the. Atlantic to the North sea

    Well, we looked down the river and we see'd the Axis come,
    and there must have been a hundred of 'em beatin' on the drum.
    They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring
    while we stood by our cotton bales and didn't say a thing.

    Old Sodak said we could take 'em by surprise
    if we didn't fire a 16 Inch Python til we looked 'em in the eyes.
    We held our fire til we see'd their faces well,
    then we opened up with Our cannons and really gave a yell.

    We fired our guns and the Axis kept a'comin.
    There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
    We fired once more and they began to runnin'
    down the Atlantic to the North sea

    Well, we fired our cannon til the barrel melted down,
    so we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round.
    We filled his head with cannon balls and powdered his behind,
    and when they tetched the powder off, the gator lost his mind

    Paul actually came up with something decent. Usually it is "Axis Sinks" or "Axis Sucks" or "Axis mops....something"

    Hmm... wouldn't want to let this thread fall by the wayside...

    I was bored while lifeguarding today, so I sang a song. It's sung to this tune:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUSzy0ShvzE
    -----------------------------------------

    Do you hear the lifeguard sing
    singing the song of bored lifeguards
    It is the music of a lifeguard who will not be bored again
    When the beating of your heart
    Echoes the splashing of the water
    There is a class about to start when the evening comes

    Will you swim all you can swim so that a lifeguard can get paid?
    some will crawl and some will kick, will you hop in and take a chance?
    Then join in the swim that will give the lifeguard his paycheck!

    *repeat chorus*

    Will you join in our crusade, who will be strong and swim with me?
    Beyond the kiddie pool, is there a world you long to see?
    The smell of the chlorine will burn out your nostrils for life!

    *repeat chorus*

    Rum and aspirin is the failed Axis cure to being pounded by the Allied fleet.
