    Please explain the word BLOG. Also why do they call it the “bridge” on a ship?

    • A Bridge is the raised platform from which the captain controls the ship. Originally (and still) meaning a structure carrying a road, etc., over a gap, ravine, river, etc., its current nautical use arose when steamships with paddle-wheels replaced sailing ships, in which the captain had commanded from the quarterdeck. Now, the platform bridging the gap between the two paddle-wheels gave a better all-around view; and this ‘bridge’ was retained when the propeller replaced them. In modern small sailing cruisers, the ‘bridge-deck’ is the transverse structure at the forward end of the cockpit forming the top of the cabin steps and often housing the engine.
      From the Old Teutonic via Old Engish ‘brycg’. First attested in its nautical use in 1843.

  2. Please explain the word cockpit.

    As a result of Captain Jack’s post, below,about poop deck, I started to Google for a picture to illustrate the Poop Royale which I have also seen on sailing junks in East Asia.
    I came upon this site which shows a fine junk which is used for day cruises in Thailand, and to my surprise, it’s for “Gays”; curious co-incidence or is Marina trying to tell us something? :sad:

    Poop, The raised aftermost deck of a ship; (of the sea) to break over the stern of a vessel, which then pooped. Poop lanterns are a flagship’s stern lights; the poop royal was a short deck above the ‘after end’ of the poop in French and Spanish warships of the sailing navies, known to British shipwrights as the topgallant poop.
    From Middle English and Old French ‘pupe’ ( in modern French ‘poupe’ ) and hence from the Latin ‘puppis’, stern.
    The colloquial [of or relating to conversation] (originally US) ‘pooped’, meaning exhausted, may be derived from the nautical expression, although the OED declares its ‘origin unknown’ [note: I don't have an OED, so I'm not sure on this].
    First attested in 1591 in Unton, Correspondence (Roxburghe Club, 1847)

    Oh wow! That second game caught my attention! I felt like I contributed a small part to that game. I feel as like my name or being was mentioned secretly in the broadcast. Then again maybe it was just a coincidence. :cool:

  12. Gay-a$$ Claudius! Hail Th-ae-th-er!
    Got a laugh, there. Caligula would
    have been the guy to weave that
    story around. Maybe, could’ve
    hornswaggled me into buying it.
    Love it when you make stuff up
    and you still fool ‘em. :mrgreen:

    Your host and I suffer from the
    same dumb-down syndrome. :!:
    I’ve been getting that dope since
    third grade!! From teachers, :roll:
    bosses, drill sergeants, even!
    Now, I write more sentence
    fragments strung together
    than I do complete phrases!

    The code word (good-as-you)
    business always leads to a
    disappointment. I went to a
    head shop, once. No head?
    just incense and posters?
