Your mentioning Holiday Inn Express intrigues me. We stayed at them all over the place, including Clarksville AR Saturday, and Kona and Honolulu soon. I’ve heard of retirees who live in hotels.
How can the skeleton be identified as a woman? We have it on the authority of an eminent professor that skeletons are indistinguishable as to “gender.”
Both were lost the same way. Top heavy, lower gun ports open and heeled by the wind so that those gun ports on the leeward side were underwater. Bloop!
I've heard of retirees living on cruise ships.
If only they had put Stacy Abrams below.
For those who have the opportunity to travel to Stockholm, a visit to the museum where the Vasa is on display is fascinating.
In 1961, the ship was dug out of the bottom of the harbor which, owing to the high percentage of fresh water in the harbor was what kept 95% of the wood preserved.
As I walked around this ship, it looked to be the model for a classic 16th century warship or pirate vessel. Very cool.
We all knew it had to be a woman driver to sink the boat.
You don’t get “sons of the gun deck” (original of “son of a gun”) meaning male child born aboard a warship without occasional women on warships.
The thing is, they were there for things other than sailing and fihgting the ship, and not aboard sailing out of port for potential battle. The females aboard were a port time or “administrative” type short sea voyage.
Also, that there was a woman aboard the Vassa when she sank is proof that women aboard a ship is bad juju.
“Sounds like she must have been high on the Hot vs Crazy Matrix!”
LOL!
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, refined the microscope, known as the father of microbiology. Certainly knew what a woman was.
How can the skeleton be identified as a woman?
Width and cant/angle of pelvic bones.

In May 2021 researchers in the Netherlands published a non-destructive neutron tomography study of a Leeuwenhoek microscope.[15] One image in particular shows a Stong/Mosolov-type spherical lens with a single short glass stem attached (Fig. 4). Such lenses are created by pulling an extremely thin glass filament, breaking the filament, and briefly fusing the filament end. The nuclear tomography article notes this lens creation method was first devised by Robert Hooke rather than Leeuwenhoek, which is ironic given Hooke’s subsequent surprise at Leeuwenhoek’s findings.
Correct, Hooke was first, Leeuwenhoek looked at microbes with it.
Recently found something which might be of interest,
sailing the seas and so forth.
Back in 1952 there was a tv series “Victory at Sea”. Do you
remember such a show? LOL sorry, do remember the name (vaguely) but don’t remember ever viewing such a show.
Anyway found some episodes on You Tube to pass on to you.
The You Tube channel is Classic TV CHANNEL

The site acknowledges a good many old tv shows, one of which
is Victory at Sea.

BTW, will make the coffee but refuse to ‘take a letter’. :-)
No, but we have a couple well credentialed biologists now that are telling us that it is impossible to tell the difference between a man or a woman by hip bones and DNA etc.
We have come a long way since then to become this stupid.
Is it possible this was the first tranny?
Viking whore.
Valkyrie..........................
Wow, much appreciate this find!
Actually my Dad who was a Navy veteran of WW2 would watch these movies and make sure me and a few of his older sons watched them.
Boy would he have loved to have seen them on a free channel like YouTube.
I woke up in the middle of the night and found our link waiting for me. Now I’ve got something to watch for a hour or two!
No friggin’ in the riggin’!
Are you one of those people that have to have satire labeled as satire to understand that it is satire?
