    For S.S. Minnow the S.S. stands for Sailing Ship, which even though she had 2 diesel engines, she still qualifies as a sailing ship because she is equipped with sails. U.S.S. is what we are accustomed to, HMS as well. According to experts it short for "Steam Ship."

    FYI - I wouldn't count on this...

    Due to a potential legal loophole, it may be impossible to convict people of any crime that happens within a 50-square mile area around the Idaho parts of Yellowstone Park. This is due to how trial laws are written in that an accused culprit has the right to be tried by a jury from the district and state in which they’re arrested. Since there’s a population of zero in this small area of Idaho that’s in the legal jurisdiction of a district in Wyoming, the trial may have to be forfeited.

    Although the Unicorn Hunters of Lake Superior State University haven’t officially existed since 1987, official unicorn hunting licenses can still be obtained from the website. Created partially as a PR stunt in 1971, the Unicorn Hunters engaged in whimsical activities such as burning a snowman on the first day of Spring and holding an annual International Stone Skipping Tournament.
