I even bought 5,000 SkeeBall tickets (on eBay for just a few bucks)

5,000 tickets? I think that means you win a Motley Crue t-shirt. ':p'

KITO!!!!!  Okay....THAT'S IT!!!  Somehow I'm going to find a way to talk the Navy into creating a Great Lakes fleet (in case we're invaded by Canada '<img'>  ) then I'm going to get transferred to this fleet solely to be able to come play with all your neet stuff!!!!! '<img'>  '<img'>


"Bldg 1, is headquarters for Naval Service Training Command/ Navy Region Midwest, and Commanding Officer Naval Station Great Lakes. The Great Lakes Marina, on Lake Michigan, is in the background."

Oh, and the Confederates invaded the town of St. Albans Vermont in 1864:
HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE EAST,
New York City, October 19, 1864.
Hon. E. M. STANTON, Secretary of War:
I have been advised that a party of rebels from Canada have robbed the banks at Saint Albans, Vt., and killed several citizens. I have ordered the provost-marshal at Burlington to send his whole efficient force there, and have also ordered 10o men from Boston. I have directed a discreet officer to be put in command, with orders, in case the marauders are found on our side of the line, to pursue them, if necessary, into Canada, and destroy them.
JOHN A. DIX,
Major-General.

NEW YORK, October 20, 1864.
Hon. E. M. STANTON,
Washington, D.C.:
Eight of the rebel raiders at Saint Albans have been captured within the Canada line and a portion of their booty recovered.
JOHN A. DIX,
Major-General.

MONTPELIER, VT., October 20, 1864.
Major-General DIX:
Two of our citizens badly wounded at Saint Albans by the rebels, all three of the banks robbed, one hotel fired, and about $I50,000 taken, and about twenty-five horses. A company of volunteers was organized to pursue the rebels in their flight to Canada. Telegram this morning says that eight of the raiders captured by the pursuing party in Canada, nine horses, and a portion of the money recovered; not able to say how much. Party still pursuing the raiders. It was a most daring adventure.
J. GREGORY SMITH,
Governor of Vermont.

Kito, All you need now are some mechanical themed animals,
a pizza oven and open your own version of Chuck E Cheese!

Yep, know ALLLLLLL about Great Mistakes-er-I mean Great Lakes Naval Station.  I thought about doing an instructor tour there once.....once.  Then the fog lifted from my brain and I thought in horror, "WHAT AM I DOING???"  Been there twice already and that was twice too many.....of course had I known Kito back then things would probably have been better!! '<img'>   Then again, I did meet my wife while stationed there so I guess it wasn't all bad. ':<img:'>   Still need a Great Lakes Fleet though....pesky Canadians you know. '<img'>
