Default Size Does Matter

I forgot to post these here in the photo gallery... This is what I caught a couple of weeks ago. My cruise ship -- the Royal Caribbean "Adventure of the Seas" -- was believe me big enough, but this puppy is even bigger. Apparently, the Brits have some compensation issues...




And just to show you in full size (hehehehe.... I am evil)::

That's a big boat.

I still think they should build the Titanic 2!

That's funny that you say that, Raj... Someone else said the same thing to me the other day, and we had a nice discussion about taboos and superstition.

Unfortunately, I don't think anyone will ever have the hubris to name another ship the Titanic.

I'll tell you something, though... The QM2 is the biggest thing on the ocean. It was so big it couldn't even dock at St Thomas!
