What's in the Ship's Locker, Redux
Jeff Zeitlin 03 Feb 2021 23:29 UTC
A while ago, I started a thread (thanks, tc, for compiling the results!)
asking what sort of Stuff accumulated in the Ship's Locker.
So, now you've put into port, and for some reason the SPA is insisting on a
top-to-bottom inspection. The grapevine has it that Inspector _______ is...
well, we can't print those characterisations in a family-friendly forum.
But you've been told to assume that he's going to be looking in, under,
behind, etc., anything that can be looked in, under, behind, etc., and it's
claimed that he's failed ships for a coffee stain on the galley table. As a
result, you've gone through the ship in a Major Cleaning Effort (as well as
making sure that everything is in good repair) and you've cleaned out the
Ship's Locker.
That doesn't mean that it's empty, however. Sometimes, some of that Stuff
is justifiable and reasonable to hold on to, or it's stuff that you Really
Do Need To Have, but it doesn't quite belong in any of the other lockers.
So...
"What's in _your_ [cleaned-out] locker?"
