“One night in 1959, radio DJ Bruce Morrow was broadcasting from the studios of WINS-AM in New York City when an elderly African American woman walked into the room.
The lady asked if she could sit down in the studio and rest for a while, and Morrow said fine, but asked her not to talk while he went live.
Finally, the woman spoke. “Do you believe all people are related?” she asked. “Yes,” Morrow replied.
“Well, cousin,” she continued, “can you give me fifty cents, please? I want to get home to the Bronx.”
Morrow handed over the money, and took from the woman’s comment his trademarked name, “Cousin Brucie”—the voice of greater New York’s youth culture throughout the 1960s. He still broadcasts on Sirius XM radio to this day.”

interesting. Some of the sizes are from tech manuals and other questionably canon sources, though.

I always like the smaller ships.
