Carnival! (NSFW)

Well, it's another long midwatch, and like it seems to do every damn day this year, it's raining. Again.

 So, with dampened spirits dragging me down, I thought I'd share some pictures from Brazil's Carnival to brighten up everyone's day. Lord knows I feel better already.

think warm thoughts (SFW version)

Welp, we're snug in a lay berth, tucked up in Brooklyn until the overnight tomorrow. Ice all around us, and it's two degrees out, so even though there's shore access, my ass is probably staying in today.

 With such cold-ass weather all around us, let's turn our eyes south to the warmth of lovely Rio De Janeiro, and some lovely Brazilian ladies.

Brazil and the 2014 'World Cups" (NSFW)

My wife and kid had to rush out to buy their Team Brasil soccer shirts before we moved, in anticipation of the cup games.

 But, sadly, not every lovely Brazilian lady can afford a team jersey, and of those that can, many find them awful hot in the Brazilian sun. Let's look at how they work around that. You know, for informational purposes.
