    in Norfolk we always had a guy fly on board. I can't remember his title. a port something. I assume he controlled the ship through the bay and harbour. As he's probably up on the deepest parts and silt and all that. But of course we were in an aircraft carrier. Things can get a little tight with a ship that large.

    Though not as tight as Bahrain. There was only like 6 feet under our keel there (we anchored out even). We were concerned about sucking up a lot of silt into our pumps.

        Indeed. Is it down the road from Cityburg, or just up the coast from Port Harbor?

        Perhaps it's nestled in the Bay Gulf, or at the foot of the Hill Mountains?

              BTW, could someone explain me all these American categories?

              What exactly is trailer trash, white trash, soccer moms and nascar dads. How do they differ from each other? Thanks

                Trailer/White Trash: Generally the same...if you're Trailer trash odds are you're white trash as well, but if you're white trash you may not be trailer trash.

                Trailer trash, of course, lives in Mobile homes. White trash are usually lower-income unsophisticated peoples who live in rural areas, or mediumsized cities in isolated areas.

                Both tend to go to NASCAR tournys, which is the most retarded "sport" ever.

                Soccer moms tend to be upper-middle class Suburban females who drive SUV and take their kids to soccer games...then get impassioned about little JImmy running down the field.

                  Are mobile homes a symbol of abject poverty, or of abject stupidity/unsophisticatedness?

                      The two tend to go hand-in-hand.

                                Just Symbols, Diss, just symbols.

                                In any event, I live in a small room with 80 other men.
