A view from the bridge!

It was pretty cool to look back on the rest of the ship as we motored back home. We were on the bridge which was at the front of the ship and we looked back to the rest of the ship from the windows at the back of the bridge.

What was different about this ship was the stadium style balconies which kid of sucked because people above you could look down at you.

No nude sunbathers? Bummer.

Yeah I couldn't pee off the side like I used to.

Dust Bunny Queen said...

That would really suck. Reference Haz's comment. What is the point of being someplace tropical if you can't go au'natural.


Aaaand. If I am ever on one of those style ships...note to self. Be on the top balcony. Not into golden showers.

That's a very nice shot composition-wise: intersecting lines with the horizon; the chaotic churning vs. the ordered superstructure of the ship. A slightly wider angle shot and you'd have something really artsy farsty that rivals anything Meade shoots.

I can't go on a ship like that. Too dangerous if I have to jump. It'd suck to land on someone's balcony.

That's setting the bar rather low, is it not? Damning with faint praise?

"Prairiescape with Woman Skiing in Dress" Yeah, that's some top notch work right there. A regular hayseed Ansel freakin' Adams!

If they don't look down on you literally, they'll look down on you figuratively.

@Sixty: I was referring to his later oeuvre--someone was praising the artsiness of his icy tree shot the other day.

I think I've posted this before, but here's a snippet talking about NC Senator Zebulon Vance.

When a Rhode Island Senator belittled the French Broad River's importance, he replied he "could stand on one border of Rhode Island and piss halfway across that state." And when the Rhode Island senator cried that Vance was out of order, Vance countered, "if I wasn't out of order, I could piss clear across the entire state."

You're in good company, Trooper.

The Dude said...

CL - I just don't like that punk, nothing he does will impress me. I get that he is your friend, and Troop loves him, but Meade and his dusty bint are useless no-talent socialist leeches.

Not that I have a strong opinion, mind you.

Trooper York said...

Hey I don't love Meade.

We used to be friends but he made a big mistake.

Sort of like Larry Fortensky.

I just feel bad for the guy.

Trooper York said...

Hey that's it.

From now on we will call him Larry Fortensky.

Now that's a hoot.

The Dude said...

That's "Laurence" to you peons!

windbag said...

Or we could call him Lolz Pretensky. Hey, he's the Larry Linville of the innerwebs. Weasly wimp pussy whipped by a blonde bitch with penis envy.

Ruth Anne Adams said...

Larry FiveElevensky. That's one better.

Wait. Doesn't that make her Hot Lips? Not seein' that.

Or at least, tryin' not to see that.

That's a stretch.
