|
| The Admiral has been locked inside his swanky cabin so long, I think the poor old fellow is going a little crazy. But, at least he's got a nice room to go nuts in.

| | | | | Re: Ice Cream Shop
|
| (...) Very nice. It reminds me of a local ice cream shop that's also in an older building. It's a Graters here in Cincinnati, OH. Everyone who's lived in the Cincinnati area knows about Graters.
