Ships

J. was reading about the Titanic today and told me about it.  He said that there were only 711 survivors, and that the two captains went down with the ship.  He said that he just couldn't believe that they did that.  He said that he would never go on a ship like that.  And that when someone asks him to go on a ship, he always says no!  He said that he could only go on little boats relating to the Civil War.  He said that he could only ride in a boat for 30 or 20 minutes.  He couldn't stand to be on a boat any longer than that.  Then it would have to turn around.
