This amuses me

So I'm going through my normal evening ablutions (brushing, flossing, shaving the back and ears) and I flip on the History Channel. They have a show on about trucks and diesel engines. Interesting enough for the toiletries.

Then a commercial comes on. Apparently, they will have a show on Friday night about the U.S.S. Enterprise and its adventures during WWII.

And it will be sponsored by Enterprise.

A show focusing on the Big E? I've wanted to see something like that for years. It's almost enough to make me shell out the fifty-a-month for cable. No finer ship sailed during the Second Big One, or did more to blow the Japanese Navy into scrap metal.

Ed Stafford's combat biography of Enterprise, THE BIG E, is one of the finest books about the Pacific War ever written.
