That’s a osha violation. No guard on the belts running those lathes.

Ah, the early 1900s. When the men were men and the women were men.

It may take a little longer, but I think me with my one arm and a bunch of other swell guys, like one eyed Pete, left nut Larry, and two toes McGee, we can lick this Kaiser fella and all his Hunt. 23 skidoo, by Jingo!

I’m sad that they are scrapping the Barry. Feels wrong for the Naval Museum to not have a ship. I get that a random cold-war destroyer is not worth the cost of preserving, but I wish they would have brought in something else to replace it. Given that they’ll never be able to get anything in there again (I think even an LCS would be too tall for the new bridge), it would have been nice if they could have secured a ship worth keeping (maybe Olympia, which is definitely noteworthy enough to warrant restoration, and is fairly neglected).

I hadn’t heard that story, so I did a little reading. Yes, it’s sad, and a little silly, that a Navy museum won’t have a ship. But judging from the problems they are having with USS Texas down at the San Jacinto Monument. It can be terribly expensive to keep a ship sitting in the water.
