Whose Line Is It Anyway? would run for a total of 220 episodes until cancellation in 2006 (it returned with another host in 2013). Drew would report the improv cast, direct the games, and also would usually involve himself in the last game of the episode. The crew then made camp on the reef until they were rescued.In 1998, he started hosting the American version of the improvisational comedy show Whose Line Is It Anyway?. She barely made it to Roncador Reef before she grounded. The vessel was chased, then sank into the water before surfacing again and ramming the Kearsarge, putting a large hole in her hull. Yes, according to her commander, Captain Leigh Hunt, he was attacked by a man-made underwater vessel that resembled a whale. The Hunley was built by private individuals who funded the project, lectured Perlmutter.Actually, she was the third boat built by Horace Hunley and his engineers. Perlmutter contemplated his bottle of port, which was now two-thirds empty.Over that time, many ships disappeared under mysterious circumstances. He disappeared down the hall for several minutes before reappearing with a book in one hand.A copy of the board of inquiry minutes concerning the sinking of the U.S. Perlmutter ran out of steam and was about to reach for the port bottle again when a look of revelation swept over his face.I just thought of something, he said, raising his great bulk out of his chair with ease. Paul Hereoux, president of the Society of Jules Verne in Amiens, France, which was Verne's home from 1872 until he died in 1905, is considered the most knowledgeable man on the author's life.

Captain Hunt swore that he saw a face staring back at him through one of the ports, a man with a beard. They also mentioned some sort of pyramid-shaped tower on its back that appeared to have viewing ports.
POWER OF TEN DREW CAREY SERIES
Their testimony described a large steel monster that was impenetrable to a series of cannon shots the Kearsarge poured into it-they simply bounced off. Not one of them who witnessed the spectacle varied his story. No, he was dead serious, replied Perlmutter,and what's important is that his entire crew backed him up. Those early efforts would have looked crude beside Captain Nemo's Nautilus. After that, submarine science lagged until John Holland and Simon Lake began experimenting with and building submarines that were accepted by several countries, including us and the Germans.

The Hunley even experimented with electromagnetic engines, but that technology was not ready, so eight men sat inside the submarine and turned a crank that spun the propeller for propulsion. That last thing, by the way, was a concept that nobody thought had been used before Howard Hughes flushed the rivets on an aircraft he designed in the mid-nineteen-thirties. She was quite streamlined, and she had a rudimentary snorkel system with bellows to pump air, ballast tanks with pumps, diving planes and flush rivets to reduce water drag. When she was inspected at first hand and the silt and remains of her crew removed from inside, she was found to be far more modern in concept than was supposed. The Hunley sat on the bottom buried in silt for a hundred and thirty-six years before she was discovered, raised and placed in a conservation laboratory tank to preserve her for public display. Perlmutter nodded.Yes, the feat didn't happen again until fifty years later, in August of 1914, when the U-21 sank the HMS Pathfinder in the North Sea. What about Verne? Pitt inquired.There must be a museum, a home or relatives that collected all his papers, research records and letters. Sounds like the good captain was heavily into the rum locker, Pitt said, jokingly. As would be expected, they estimated the size anywhere from one to three hundred feet, with a beam of twenty to forty feet. The crew agreed that it was cigar shaped, cylindrical with conical ends. Not exactly an underwater craft to be taken lightly in 1894. Probably somewhere in between, Pitt said thoughtfully.Somewhere slightly more than two hundred feet in length with a twenty-five-foot beam. The whaling ship Essex, out of Nantucket, was rammed and sunk by a whale, offered Pitt. The ship that sank the famous Confederate raider Alabama?
