This was just linked on the NC board. Funny stuff! Personally, I’d be trying to get to St. Thomas, U.S.Virgin Islands.

Oh, yes. That station is on my list. Apparently there's another 378 in Kodiak, so I intend to put that one at the top. The Munroe. Big ships are cool, and, also, you get much street cred in the Guard from doing time on one or two. Plus, now that I consider it, being at a boat station sounds extremely boring. You don't go anywhere or even do much. I like being underway. You go cool places, and also, have opportunity to sleep when not on watch. I don't get to sleep much in port. I have no desire to go to an ISU. I might go insane from boredom.
