I dont like how people are just disposing of the worlds history now a days. I mean, come on, especially something like that. The ship yard itself probably has a good story behind it whether the RMS Titanic was built there or not. I mean imagine actually living there a little under 100 years ago and being able to see the largest ship ever, a great piece of history, being built.

Florida didn't start to become a national powerhouse until Spurrier took over. Since then until now they have won two National Titles, the same as USC has won two in that time. One of those titles however, was a split title with LSU, and they only won because they cried enough to the AP for the AP to vote them in.As for the UCLA team winning more titles, that is also because of being a more historic team. However, we are dealing with the here and now, where Florida is the better school these days. Back to back National titles in Basketball, and a title in Football says alot. First school to ever do that, so beat that California.
 
Bath is a World heritage city and was a famous Roman Spa back in the day. It's mainly famous for its buildings and is a big tourist destination.

I mean, Celtic fans have been preaching their 16 titles forever, yet they haven't won a new one since the f*cking Regan Administration.As for the Florida/California thing. At least it's actually sunny in California. Unlike that wannabe bullsh** in Florida with all those f*cking thunderstorms and humidity, are you kidding me? You guys get the worst weather on the entire North American continent and yet call yourselves the "Sunshine State"? Where are the most tornadoes? Florida.Where are the most thunderstorms? Florida.What state has the highest average rainfall? Florida.What state has the highest amount of hurricane landfalls? Florida.Where are the most cloudy days found? Florida.Come on. Florida's tourism department should be tried for false advertisement.
