Any relation, Matt? Mitchel's hauling in Blackbeard's anchor here. Probably to ship in a WOODEN crate.

    Nope. No relation. (That I know of).

    Besides, even if somebody/anybody was related to me, they'd never admit it.
    Can't say as I'd blame 'em...

    Ships used to be made out of wood too. But landing jet aircraft onto a plywood deck probably didn't work out to well.

    USS Lexington "Lexington was the final Essex-class carrier in commission and the last wooden-decked aircraft carrier to serve with the U.S. Navy."

    So, you too, W9? I would have thought otherwise...
