Dry Dock Drama
Let's talk about the elephant in the room - where is she going to live once she's all spick and span? Well, that's the million-dollar question, isn't it? There's been a lot of back and forth, more meetings than a UN conference, and about as much clarity.
Tip: Focus more on ideas, less on words.
One rumor has it she’s dreaming of retiring to a quiet cove in Hawaii, sipping Mai Tais and soaking up the sun. Another whispers she's eyeing a spot in the Bahamas, where she can show off her newly restored hull to a whole new crowd. But let's be real, neither of those is happening.
Tip: Pause, then continue with fresh focus.
The Galveston Gamble
The most likely destination seems to be Pier 20 in Galveston. It's closer to home, and there's talk of creating a whole historical park around her. Think of it as a retirement community for badass battleships. But hey, don't quote me on that. Things change faster than a sailor's mood.
Tip: Look for small cues in wording.
