Not Something You Want To Hear On The Staten Island Ferry

Actually heard this yesterday:

"All right men. Battlestations."

Yikes.

I assume we beat back an attack from the nefarious Pirates of New York Harbor.

Did you see this week the US Navy destroyer chasing down the tramp steamer full of pirates off the coast of Africa the other day?

Life in the US Navy:

* Clean piece of equipment
* Eat ham and mashed potatoes for lunch
* Read manual written in three-ring binder
* look at magazine
* bell rings
* you and 4 other guys have to go out on the launch and actively battle a stolen tramp steamer full of cutlass-and-rocket-grenade-armed narcotized pirates.
* dinner tonight is meatballs and the movie is Ice Age.

For the purposes of this comment, I don't think you could've picked a better movie than Ice Age.
