A friend just sent me this photo today. The funny thing is that the picture is off the last ship I served on. The USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72).
I'm not sure how old the picture is and it was a little fuzzy so I'm not entirely sure that it's real, although I wouldn't exactly put it past a ship to do something like this.
By the pricking of my thumb,
Something wicked this way comes.
Open, locks,
Whoever knocks.

It's not my place in life to make people happy. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to watch me slaughter cows you hold sacred. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to have your basic assumptions challenged. If you want bunnies in light, talk to someone else.
