Another Sunday on the Bay
 
When not playing GWX, I need only look out the window for further amusement:

Ach, the dreaded GWX Blimp!

The tourists have Schnellboot rides now, looks like fun (as long as you're not sailing when they blast through!)

But you sailors tell me, does this look like poor nautical etiquette?

And more tankerspotting... Where do they get these weird livery schemes? "Joker Green" in time for Halloween!

Is that a photo of the Golden Gayt bridge. :p

TarJak 10-29-08 01:38 AM

No it's the Bay Bridge. The Golden Gate is behind where the photo was taken.

That tanker isn't loaded up, wait for it to come back out.

Sink the ship and the oil!

The corrison resistant (zinc laden) and antifouling (copper laden) paints are cheaper without pigmants.

Thats one of the reasons you see these bizzare paint schemes.
