Clue/Question: Using technology, details about the depth of the Mariana Trench have become – – –
Answer: FATHOMABLE
(An excellent stinky pun. Sure, the trench is MUCH deeper than this gag. But, hey! We’re talking the Mariana Trench here. South of Japan and east of the Philippines. It is appx. 1600 miles long and 43 miles wide, and – according to Wikipedia – if Mt. Everest was placed at the deepest point its peak would still be 1.2 miles under water. That’s deep, man!
Nothing for ralis95 to get worked up about today, as they are all familiar clue words. Two of the jumbles came up as new, but we’ve definitely seen “cnuhm” and “lafeb” sometime in the past. The answer letter layout was a tight ten letter jumble. A fathom is appx. 6 ft, and is a nautical measurement, so that just adds to the pun.
A basic high school science class cartoon. I like the graphic the teacher is using. I bet they have some real funky sea critters in the depths of that trench. Prehistoric fish, with bioluminescence, and such. Things most of us couldn’t even dream up. Fascinating. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

UR,
After solving the answer the memories just came flooding{Ha} in. I think you know why!!?¿
What a start for the weekend☆◇◇
Happy & Healthy Weekend to allll !!×
You salty ol’ sea dog! Probably spent some time in the RP. Most likely Subic Bay. — YUR
UR,
SRY for the reply coming late^^
WOW, how did you guess that???
I spent most of my time in RP, at Subic Bay!!
Last time was 6/16……Basically a poor area
but having USNS & some regular Navy Ships
dock there helped the economy a taste (so to say) $$*
But more importantly the great majority of people there were very helpful, nice & friendly….
Of course, doing stupid & disrespectful stuff
{{Like any port city, could be unhealthy or worse**!×}}
I made four good friends and two of them said
if I ever made it back there I had a place to go to…..I wonder if I might take them up on that
one of these days^??
THX for bringing that question up!!×
Byyyyy for now>>>>>>>>>~☆
PS I was told there used to be a Navy Base
there but the Gov. kicked them out, not too smart, no??? $$$
You were there last as a Merchant Marine . . . in 6/16? I’m pretty sure it was under Corazon Aquino that they first closed Clark Air Base, in 1991, then Subic Bay in 1992, to the U.S. Air Force and Navy respectively. I guess the leases were up, and RP was asking too much to renew. Plus, they wanted a break from all the U.S. service people. Those areas kind of gave RP a bad name, due to all the prostitution and bars, etc., etc. Plus, plus: Corey was probably still miffed that the U.S. propped up Marcos for so long. And, her husband Ninoy had been assassinated by the Marcos regime. There are some things money just can’t buy! — YUR
UR,
THX for the interesting info^^*
Yes, I was a Merchant Mariner working for the
Dept. of Def…..Under the USA Navy. I happened to be on Underway Replenishment Ships….We
were on Oil Tankers but also supplied other necessities from toilet paper too milk/food ect…
.They still had the old profession of prostitution
& plenty of bars but the old boys told me it was a lot safer there than when the Bases were around….the way of politics around the world many times blows the old noggin!!!
But for some reason I can’t really figure out, I Really Liked Subic Bay, RP☆?? ¿
Again good reply!
Smooth Sailing to ya**
