Navel Thinking
Published May 27, 2003
Our son, Aaron, came home from a five-month deployment aboard his submarine, and told us that one of the ways the sailors kept up morale was to make wooden cars out of kits and run derby races. "What do you do for a ramp?" my husband inquired.
"Don't need one," Aaron said. "We just put the cars on the floor and then tilt the sub."
