Buyer Beware, I picked up a garbage disposal and since I didn’t have the time bought the “installation” package from amazon for $150. Turns out that the plumber has posted the “installation” as a “replacment” (as in you already have a disposal installed). Charged me an additional $120 over and above what I had already…

As noted, the main thing here is that Steve Francis has a boat.

He’s still alive?

LOL, that’s MBE, and guess what I do for a living ?

The image quality of this just makes me sad... I get that conditions out in the Farallon’s are often lousy. But they could have put a bit more effort in it.

The Poles didn’t exactly do a lot of fighting during the rest of the war

Korea? Japan? Germany?

Not true. Defense contractors aren’t losing either.

I guess being smashed into oblivion twice in fifteen years can have a deleterious effect on a fighting force.

Looks like they could at least deploy the off road helicopters.

When you got to go to war, but need to bbq by sundown!

As it turns out, George (the author of the above article) already provided us with the link to the information, it’s at the National Marine Sanctuaries USS Conestoga site the link for which he posted at the bottom of his article.

She was an ocean-going tug so traveling from San Francisco to Hawaii wasn’t that unusual. The hull shape isn’t that odd either, any seawater coming in over the bow or sides would flow over the deck and through the scupper holes back overboard. It was imperative that the hatches be kept closed of course!

Not my point. Even the titanic had wireless communications in 1912.

I think the same thing- and about what Italian food would be like as well. Before trade with the Americas the rest of the world wasn’t eating tomatoes, peppers, chocolate, vanilla, potatoes, turkey, pineapples, avocados, corn, or peanuts.

And no tomatoes either of course, so no curries...

Probably worth noting that all hot peppers originated in South and Central America. Sure, they’ve been exporting them since the days of Cortez- but all the hot chilis we associate with India and S E Asia came from the Americas.

Forgot to to add at least they didn't follow the Canadian method buy new search and rescue helicopters realize the current ships can't fit them so built new ships to hold them and then cancel the helicopter order

What is this anti-military nonsense? I bet he is some pinko commie liberal who never served a day for our country.
