Surfing around tonight, I found I like this video of dolphins "riding the bow wave" taken from the bridge of USS Wyoming (SSBN 742), as well as this "poster":

I swear none of my friends here in college understand why I think this is so damned funny.

Wake one of them up wearing something similar and see if they figure it out!

I still preferred my OBA, nothing like turning on the little voice box and yelling "Why are you still in the rack"

There was once a cartoon on the annual Dolphin Calendar; about 1982, I belive. Anyway it shows two blue shirts about to wake up a Chief. One of them has on a Steinke Hood and the other one has a bucket of water.
Steinke Hood says: I'll pull back the curtain and you throw the water, then I'll yell "Hurry Chief, we're the last ones!"
Now to me that is funny!

I printed out and posted this picture on our bulletin board in the pentagon
today. It lasted all of 5 minutes up there. I suspect that one of my nine E-6's of which 5 of them have been belt-way bandits since the early 90's
just could not see the humor in it. Too funny!

Curtain pulled back on groggy mid still in his rack. Guy in mask and canary suit shines a light on the mid's face and shouts, "Hey, Chief, there's somebody still alive in here!"

What, no battle lantern?
It's not a good wake up if there's no freight-training.
