Sweet! Thank God I didn't do any Breakers. Nice Liberty ports, but they don't make up for the time crackin'. Had friends on Polar Star, Polar Sea and Mackinaw. (BTW Boutwell is in Iraqi waters now)
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.
