Well, I got some friends coming over tomorrow, so I think to myself – self, hmm, a goose, yeah, cool, I can do a goose. So I snag the goose. I get a bunch of other stuff and head for the checkout line.

Whoah, Nellie. Everything goes ‘beep’ except Ms Goose.

“Oh, this doesn’t have a tag, so we’ll have to get a price.” Yeah, okay, no worries. And on, and on.

“Sir, I’m afraid we can’t find a price, on this.” Oh, that’s ok, says I – I found it in the bin of frozen capons. “Oh, but this is a goose, it isn’t a capon.” No worries, says I, just think about it – a goose is just a great big chicken. So just charge me for a great big fat capon. “But sir, that’s going to be expensive.” Oh, says I, that’s quite all right.

So a 7lb goose for $18.00. Woof! It was all I could do to keep from ROTFFLMAO.

Instead of my usual drivel, I have a serious question today. Does anyone recall if the Washington Naval Treaty imposed any displacement limits on CVs? I was under the impression that it did not, but an article I read suggests that it does.

Thanks!

I found it rather entertaining....once you get past 40 minutes of none too subtle political commentary.

It did. Only two carriers per signatory nation could displace more than 27,000 tons and these could be no more than 33,000 tons. This was to allow reconstruction of battlecruisers.

Very near, in fact. About half a mile away. If the wind's right, it'll be a free concert.

CV's were adressed specifically by the treaty. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Treaty_for_the_Limitation_of_Naval_Armaments

Ok, you have to be a little careful of Wikipedia, but I believe this one's correct.
