Bob Toland frowned at his spice cake. I shouldn't be eating dessert, the intelligence analyst reminded himself. But the National Security Agency commissary served this only once a week, and spice cake was his favorite, and it was only about two hundred calories. That was all. An extra five minutes on the exercise bike when he got home.

"What did you think of that article in the paper, Bob?" a coworker asked.

"The oil-field thing?" Toland rechecked the man's security badge. He wasn't cleared for satellite intelligence. "Sounds like they had themselves quite a fire."

"You didn't see anything official on it?"

"Let's just say that the leak in the papers came from a higher security clearance than I have."

"Top Secret - Press?" Both men laughed.

"Something like that. The story had information that I haven't seen," Toland said, speaking the truth, mostly. The fire was out, and people in his department had been speculating on how Ivan had put it out so fast. "Shouldn't hurt them too bad. I mean, they don't have millions of people taking to the road on summer vacations, do they?"

"Not hardly. How's the cake?"

"Not bad." Toland smiled, already wondering if he needed the extra time on the bike.

(Marlboro) I hate this fuckin' town.

You mean to tell me that real cowboys,
I mean, shit-kickin' rodeo cowboys,|come from Vegas?
Some of the best.
Maybe even one of the best.
Man, I know you don't wanna be here.

Ironman Triathlon

An Ironman Triathlon is one of a series of long-distance triathlon races organized by the World Triathlon Corporation (WTC) consisting of a 2.4 miles (3.86 km) swim, a 112 miles (180.25 km) bike and a marathon (26 miles 385 yards, 42.195 km) run, raced in that order and without a break. All Ironman events have a strict time limit of 17 hours to complete the race. The Ironman race starts at 7 AM. The mandatory swim cut off for the 2.4 mile swim is 2 hours 20 minutes. The bike cut off time is 5:30 PM. All finishers must complete their marathon by midnight.

The Ironman Triathlon, or The Ironman Triathlon World Championships, or Ironman Hawaii, is both the original Ironman triathlon and the annual world championships of the event, held annually in Hawai'i since 1978, with an additional race in 1982. It was made famous by its grueling length, harsh race conditions, and television coverage.

The Caine Mutiny


2:11:02
Captain DeVriess,
this is Ensign Keith.

2:11:12
May I see your orders,
or are they a military secret?

2:11:17
I'm sorry, sir.

2:11:25
Princeton, 1941...

2:11:28
Top five percent
in midshipman's school...

2:11:33
Pretty good background,
pretty good record.

2:11:38
- Disappointed it's a minesweeper?
- To be honest, yes, sir.

2:11:45
- You saw yourself on a battleship?
- I had hoped that...

2:11:50
I only hope that
you're good enough for the Caine.

2:11:55
- I'll try to be worthy of the job.
- The Caine is a beaten-up tub.

2:12:02
After 18 months of combat, it takes
24 hours a day to keep her together.

2:12:08
I don't think you understand.
You're in the junkyard navy.

2:12:16
Steve, put in with Keefer
in Communications. -

2:12:19
- And have Tom show this Princeton
Tiger and the other ensign the ship.

2:12:28
And Keith...

2:12:30
Don't take it so hard.
War is hell.

Memorable quotes for

The Caine Mutiny (1954)


Captain Queeg: Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled the Caine out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers...
