Join the union, get some sea time. It's dirty, hardass work. Pay's great and free travel but downside is no homelife. Perfect for me!

Its probably a little slow for skiing. But throw some ballast in there, hang a tower off the top and I bet it throws a nice wake.

No joke yesterday off the Coast of China I was on a collison course with a ship called the "Kum Pit". I couldn't help but laugh as I called it up on the radio asking for the ranking seamen on the Kum Pit.

That reminds me of a story at a ***** house called the "Soapy Suds massage parlor" in Pattaya Beach, Thailand. And before you say anything, No I wasn't there for the "massage", I was there rescuing some salty sailor's who had gotten in a ruckus with the House "Mom".

Ohhh crap...I was never here!
