There should always be an Enterprise in the United States Navy.

I agree. There have been 8, the latest and greatest from having had real bad luck.

As an ENTERPRISE sailor, I obviously agree. However, I don't want the proud name attached to just any old carrier. CVN-65 was a revolutionary vessel, and the name should be reserved for an equally-revolutionary successor, like the first space battleship or something.
In the meantime, let's go back to giving carriers kickass names. You know, something like USS MANIFEST DESTINY or USS MAILED FIST -- something with an air of real menace.

There’s a small street in Grassy Point that goes to the beach with a few houses on it, right on the river. When you get to the bottom after winding around, there is a HUGE anchor in the circle!
