^ That almost looks like the backdrop for a board game.

The carrier one above it is nice, thanks. I appropriated it to use as my desktop background.  O0

That pic just raised a question that I've never thought of before... why in the Island not closer to the "take-off" end of the ship and further away from the "landing and sometimes crashing" part of the ship?
It doesn't, from that pic, appear to be centralized.... even so you'd think they'd want the important bits further away from the explodey bits....

I think it's a deck space issue.

and there are lots of explodey bits all over the place.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

The key to surviving this site is to not say something which ends up as someone's tag line - Steelgrave
