And now, an introduction...


Recommended Posts

New to some, but not to others...

Allow me to introduce myself; Quartermaster James Hunt, of the Good Ship Fearless. Brother of the recently lost at sea Captain Jigme.

Barkeep! Tap a cask of your finest rhum! Drinks all around! Here's a toast to my brother and to the health of the company!

May the Author of all that is good keep your name writ in his book.

Welcome to this fine establishment, mate, sorry for it to be under such a black cloud; my condolensces.

Now, let's drink a spot o' rum to your dearly departed kin - make mine rum with water and lime and some of that cane sugar ground in it.

To absent companions, comrades in arms and loved ones near . . . and far.

Hangin at Execution dock awaits. May yer Life be a long and joyous adventure in gettin there!
As he was about to face the gallows there, the pirate is said to have tossed a sheaf of papers into the crowd, taunting his audience with these final words:

"My treasure to he who can understand."

Many thanks to ye all for your condolences and grettings!

Barkeep! Keep the rum flowing! I know that cask isn't empty yet!

Now, let us join in song!

Kind friends and companions, come join me in rhyme

Come lift up your voices in chorus with mine

Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain

For we may and might never all meet here again

Here's a health to the company and one to my lass

Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass

Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain

For we may and might never all meet here again

Here's a health to the dear lass that I love so well

Her style and her beauty, sure none can excel

There's a smile upon her countenance as she sits on my knee

Sure there's no one in in this wide world as happy as we

Our ship lies at harbor, she's ready to dock

I hope she's safe landed without any shock

If ever we should meet again by land or by sea

I will always remember your kindness to me

ahh, Health to the Company, a good song indeed sir.

I'll gladdy avail myself of a pint in honor of your brother Mr Hunt.
