Strange Brew by John Deering for November 04, 2023

Yikes!

No, but let me get the hair out of my eyes first.

And Oveur a minute later he asked him: “Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?” (and “have you ever been in a… in a Turkish prison?”)

“Joey, would you like me to show you a ritual some sailors did when one of them was crossing the equator for the first time?”

“No, Joey, I avoid using the foghorn, anymore. There’s an old sea monster around out there that comes up out of the depths thinking it’s a mating call.”

Jamaica Inn?

Old joke. Naval vessel is cruising along and notices a radar blip along its course. Shortly it becomes obvious that they are on a collision course. A series of radio exchanges ensue with each vessel telling the other to change course to avoid the impending collision. Finally the admiral aboard sends a message that this is a US aircraft carrier and the other ship should bear off or be sunk. The other vessel, replies “lighthouse Nantucket”, your choice!

I prefer mine straight, no chaser.

The real trick is getting the old ship off the rocks.

Yes captain, every time the power goes out!

All hulls breakin’ loose.

This is going to lead to a question about seamen.
