Re: Ship names

That's okay, you lot have the HMS Trumpeter. You can't tell me that that isn't good for a laugh these days. I'm sure its size, relative to others of HM ships, is a fitting metaphor for someone's hands. And penis.

That aside, I'm sure the USS Ponce's crew is proud of their ship, just as the citizens of Ponce, Puerto Rico, for which it is named, are proud of their city and the Spaniard for whom it was named. (Even if he himself was a bit of ponce himself for searching for the Fountain of Youth.)
