...but someone threw something from the deck, so lets see how this goes.
Just saw this episode tonight, looks like they're trying to say it was 'defending their boat' because the Japanese were 'getting too close'. Yet they seem to cry and moan any time the Japanese try to do anything to protect their boats, such hypocrisy from the Sea Shepherds, also I'd much rather the Captain of any one of the Japanese boats being in control while they're maneuvering close to a ship than that idiot Watson, I wish they'd quit calling him a captain.

oh, yeah. the japs also hit the helicopter pilot with an LRAD, UH-OHHHHH! wonder if he crashes.
Saw the one guy in the zodiac dropping to the side, I laughed, oh the drama they try to get going, like we all don't know the helicopter didn't crash.

Also, i wonder what Steve Irwin would think about his name being used on such a vessel.
His wife let them name it that, guess she doesn't care what his name is associated with.

I did see my first shred of common sense on this show tonight though, when the zodiac crews refused to throw grappling hooks from their inflatable boats at the nets on the Japanese 'mother ship'. I noticed the people who wanted to try the hooks, weren't actually going to be on the inflatable boats, so of course they didn't care if it worked or not, or if they got tossed back at the small boats or not.

I'm seriously going to send that first mate a supply of razor blades, his wispy facial hair is starting to get really annoying, shave that fuckin armpit that's around your mouth off you silly bastard.

The editors of the IRT need to lay off the cracking-ice track...it's worse than the laugh track of an early-90's sitcom.

Scene: a graceful snowshoe hare gingerly scampers through the snow
SFX: Popping ice out of an ice cube tray, pretzel sticks being snapped, bricks being dropped onto granite counter tops.
I know it really is sad how much they use the ice track, someone farts and the ice cracks for days on that show.

I started watching American Loggers as well, they're the same way with the trucks rolling over, anytime they go around a corner they feel the need to explain the truck 'may' tip if the driver goes to fast, and use the same CGI truck rolling down a hill. Also they were talking about working in 'extreme cold', then the narrator said it was -25, fuckin hell that isn't extreme, that's downright balmy compared to the -40 or -50 and above I used to work outside in, and I didn't have a nice warm truck cab to sit in, I was on a damn ski doo, sometimes driving across a lake, now that's bloody cold.
