Title: AHOY! Post by: DigiDoubloon on April 28, 2014, 07:56:37 PM Ahoy there bitmates!
I've been at sea through two of the roughest storms a Captain has ever seen, storms that strike fear into the hearts of land lubbers and bilge rats aplenty. I tell no lies. When the seas were awash with bounty and the wind filled my sails I traded. Tis the height of prosperity I said to myself and 'ol Cap'n Doubloon needs a new sextant. Better weather came and I stamp my wooden leg when I think about the sextant I could've had, but when yar needs a sextant yar needs a sextant! The cats out of the bag many say and she still be hard sailing but listen to an old sea dog when I tells ya, HOLD FAST! So many doubloons being invested in ports, sails, lockers, man o wars, liners, anchors and ladders. The sailing of this year will not be the sailing of next year. Hold fast through the swells and keep your mind ship shape and Bristol fashion. When the new age of sail comes bringing safety to these seas watch the lubbers and bilge rats lining up at the dock to climb aboard :) Old Captain Doubloon will be behind the helm of a clipper or will go down in this dinghy. Aye Title: Re: AHOY! Post by: cbeast on April 28, 2014, 07:58:32 PM Ahoy Skipper! Do you need a First Mate?

Title: Re: AHOY! Post by: DigiDoubloon on April 28, 2014, 08:19:04 PM Great. Now I have the SpongeBob song stuck in my head.... When ol' Cap'n had two legs diving for sponges was a great pastime. I only heard them sing when I was on the grog and never met a sponge called Bob. I'm sure he is a fine singer and great sponge! :) Aye Title: Re: AHOY!

Are our sails footloose like the old goxsails? We don't need to lay ahull. Let go and haul, trim the jib and we'll be there by the thirteenth. A most fortuitous number for old sea dogs! Aye!

Today's choice is Ron Zacapa Sistema Solera 15. Captain, shall I serve? Those hodlers need a spirit to keep their spirit up! Title: Re: AHOY!

Those hodlers need a spirit to keep their spirit up! Splice the mainbrace! A fine choice bitmate! I remember the days when grog was used as currency. They were no fancy names for denominations, millibits, sissybits, microbits. Sippers or gulpers, that was it. Fill to the brim bitmate! I was always a gulper! Aye Title: Re: AHOY!

Did ye hear the canon shots last night? A final warning ya reckon? Yar need to lay off the rum lad! Ol' Cap'n loves to visit Casablanca. Those cannon shots were Ol' Cap'n mixing up his Moroccan with his gun powder, easy to do with a hookah by candlelight. I dare say I nearly lost me beard! Maybe Ol' Cap'n should lay off the rum too! Any skipper worth his weight can handle rough seas, especially if they want to reach the fabled City of Digital Gold. I'd rather end up in Davey Jones's locker than spend the rest of me days on dry land. Aye Title: Re: AHOY!

Title: Re: AHOY! Post by: DigiDoubloon on April 29, 2014, 10:06:12 PM A Whalers Tale. I signed aboard this whaling ship I made my mark it's true And I'll serve out the span of time I swore that I would do But I'll not man your boats again Though you cast me in the sea For I tell you sir, them fish can think As well as you or me Just yesterday the lookout's call Had bent us to our work I took me place like all the rest I'd not be one to shirk Now thirteen men's been drownded And no more of them we'll see I'd take an oath, them fish can think As well as you or me We'd pulled our boats abreast the pod The steersman took his stand He'd had no time to make his throw When the oar flew from my hand Just then a great fluke smashed our boat The whale I didn't see Now I believe them fish can think As well as you or me For then them whales destroyed our boats They rammed them one by one They stove them all with head and fluke And after they was done We few poor souls left half-alive Was clinging to debris I'd stake me life them fish can think As good as you and me The way them whale fish went for us It seemed as though t'was planned For each one had his target boat They played us man for man Just knowin' now they think so clear My heart says let them be I swear to God them fish can think As good as you or me Now John is blind, Jim's lost an arm And Caleb's lost below My leg will heal but other men No more aloft can go So I'll not man your boats again Though you drown me in the sea For I tell you sir, them fish can think As good as you or me Aye Title: Re: AHOY!
