This is one that'll sail right over the heads of the non-native speakers (and maybe some of the natives)
Thanks, Kristen. I guess we'll just have to explain to those that don't understand.:)#3: valerie o..travis (bigblue) on May 20, 2013

But a bow by any other name is still a bow, right?#5: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on May 21, 2013

You guys might want to check your comments on your own puzzles as there were several here that did not come up when I went to the forum. Must have gone astray with the updating.
It looks more like a hair ribbon such as those stereotypically worn by "bowheads" than a present-bow or a bow-tie bow (see http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bowhead). Of course, a "bowhead" can also be a whale, which a naval ship might be somewhat more like to fire over.
I don't think the updating has impacted the "forum" page at all. Though I've been wrong before.
