Other Memories
This ship was infested with cock roaches, you could hear them scatter if you came onto the mess deck to get a cup of coffee. I left my cup sitting there and turned my back, and when I turned back around my cup was gone. I just happened to catch the little boogers before the got down the ladder to the engine room, quite a tussle but I got it back.
