Yeah, that is a cool name for sure. I like the cooked iquana story.

From "Down three"

The after battery is beginning to look like homeless people have moved in… All that's missing are grocery carts and refrigerator crates.

:p :p

Yeah, he sure does. I got a few on the USS Torsk I work with like this. Geezer Chief comes to mind and Big Al who worked as an electrian on the Orion (sub tender).

Read "Life in a Steel Pipe" thats a good one!

Go further down the page and there is a mess of things to read. Check out the cartoons about midway down. Great stuff.

For example... Only boat sailors will think this is funny... Why? Because they did it. If any submariner tells you he never pulled this one... He's lying.

When you got some JG or fresh 'out of the cabbage patch' lieutenant standing the diving watch... You waited. You waited until he had trimmed the boat. Then by twos and threes, you made your way to the forward room... You waited some more. Then all of you moved by ones... Twos... Until all of you were in the after room. The boat would take on weird angles... The diving officer compensated... The trim manifold operator laughed as he responded to instructions...

"Pump 500 lbs. aft... No, forward... Wait... Make that after trim... Forward trim... Belay my last... Make that zero bubble! More dive on the stern planes... What the hell's going on? What's happening??? Boat's really acting weird..."

It never took long for the COB to get a handle on what was going on.

It was rough, if not damn near impossible to maintain a long distance romance with your high school squeeze when you were serving the Goddess of the Main Induction.

Found in "naughty little girls". Good chuckle!

Ahahaha those bubbleheads! :rotfl: Top notch find AVG. Just finished machete juice.

I read on yesterday. Do not recall which one but they changed the name on the side of the USS Cutlass. They removed the L and put in a E. Therefore sailing about with USS Cuteass on the side.;)

that one is awesome. I love the part were his uncle wakes up after the 151 rum drinking and his hair looks like is was combed with an egg beater.

This one caused me to be a bit embarrassed when everyone at work looked at me for laughing out loud so much
