A Navy officer was walking through the crew's quarters of his ship one day and chanced upon a sailor reading a magazine with his feet up on a table.

"Sailor!" the officer boomed. "Do you put your feet up on the furniture at your house?"

"No sir," replied the sailor, "but we don't land LAC's in it either!"

Chief, “A good one from Silly-easin Confedercy of tRMN:”

[quote Timothy Bailey]

Basilisk Station

So sit right back and you'll hear a tale
The tale of a fateful trip
That started from Landing Port
Aboard this mighty ship.

Her weapons were refit and rough,
Crew full of frustration,
Captain and all set sail that day
For Basilisk Station, for Basilisk Station.

The sailing started getting rough
The captain she was crossed
If not for the courage of FEARLESS' crew
The system would be lost
The system would be lost

The ship's station was in orbit of this backwater system far;
With Harrington
And McKeon too
Papadapolous and the Marines;
Steward MacGuinness;
Horace Harkness and Scotty Tremaine
Here on Basilisk Station! [end quote]

Mange, <It’s better than your jokes, Chief.>

Poker,

Gilligan Basilisk is cute and clever.

I like the Doxology. But the tune it is set to is driving me nuts. I site read well enough to recognize that is not set to a doxology that I recognize such as, "Praise God from whom all blessings flow ..." or the Lord's Prayer or, " ... worlds without end."' What tune is it set to?

Hey Pokermind -

Since you're doing songs now, how about the MAlign Naval Anthem?

If we accept the MAN's maroon & green as being close enough to red & blue, how about something along the lines of...

Spider Drive, Spider Drive,
Can't be seen when we arrive.
Spider Drive, Spider Drive,
If we're one or if we're five,
Look out! We've got the Spider Drive...

Mange < the chief has the summer flu so I'll try:

Lenny Dets, Lenny Dets,
Now the shark's a pet
Lenny Dets, Lenny Dets
We got lots o' armament
Look out! We got Lenny Dets ...

Your turn again two-leg, perhaps Techno Dyne's Chaproset missile? Sorry for spelling I must be coming down with the creeping crud, too.>
