Aurielius Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Poetamachia- a duel between poets.

Tidus44 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) stiochoimetric - concerned with, involving, or having the exact proportions for a particular chemical reaction. Distracted by a work problem and this is the only word that keeps popping up in my head - plus I can't type. A warrior poet or a poet warrior?

Aurielius Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 nugget- first tour aviator...since I'm back on auto pilot after a long day of celebrating the 4th of July..

Tidus44 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 While the claim has a small amount of verisimilitude (semblance of truth; likelihood; probability), it does remind me of an incident I witnessed in Gibraltar along side the Dickie Bird. The USN rating was talking with our OOD and asked what it was like being in the second largest navy. Not bad says our OOD, whats it like being in the second best?
