Relive the past with enormous gun devices, tools and personal mementos from Norfolk's own Battleship Wisconsin. This exhibit includes a 2,400 pound military analog computer, a 12-foot long optical range finder, WWII racks (bunks), galley equipment, shell sleds and cradles for moving the Wisconsin's 16 inch gun ammunition, a 48-star U.S. flag, and dozens of never-before-seen archival images.

For reasons obvious to anyone measuring my waistline lately, I won't be in attendance, but I hope to visit the "barcrawl" tag soon for mighty guffaws.
A seasonal pagan god will be manifest in this lad, methinks - one that wants to keep his/her liver. :)
Great! I'm coming as Wisakedjak!
I'll be the guy in the suit and shades with the crazy sign about impeachment and alien civilizations.
I turn 30 on Sunday! I can't guarantee we'll come by, but I'll try.
I take it back... We'll definitely be there at around 8:30, wherever you guys are.

This is going to be a weekend to remember. Or forget. Either way.
