Battleship U.S.S. Texas afloat today

And back at dock after an extensive repair and refit.  Don't mess with Texas' battleships.

This is a very long video of this morning's short voyage.

Still no word on Gov. Abbott pressing it into service to shell the border.

Shocked, I am. Just shocked.

The Fat Electrician tells a quick history with all the NSFW Hyperbole that he's known for and tells about her 'Gangsta Lean' to put shells deeper into Normandy.

Visited that a few years ago on the same trip I visited the Alabama. Even though they were in service together, the Alabama was a later generation. The contrast between the ships was amazing, even down to the creature comforts for the crew.
