So here is pretty much my favorite picture ever! (I think it might be Kay's too.) In the original post the bottom line of the "E" in "RECTUM" was missing so it looked like it said "RFCTUM." Thanks to modern technology it now reads more correctly. I meant to take a picture of this sign with Derek in front because it's so funny when he toots. He always makes a really big deal out of it and an even bigger deal out of saying "excuse me!" It was just icing on the cake that he made that face and it looks like the lightning is striking him!
Jared investigated what "LSO" and "Rectum Non Bustus" refer to. LSO stands for Landing Safety Officer and Rectum Non Bustus is his motto. Apparently he hates it when the pilots crash their planes into the ship somehow (into the back end?). The lightning and the bar floating over the ship have us confused - also there are supposed to be three dots on each side of the floating bar. Anyway - the picture is still hilarious!

LSO stands for "Landing Signals Officer" and the bar with the dots on each side represent the OLS (Optical Landing System) lights.
I assume the lightning bolt represents how it feels to "Bustus" your plane into the "Rectum" of the ship.
