Capt. Sterling Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 T'was not dead monkeys in them bales, what?

William Brand Posted May 11, 2011 Author Posted May 11, 2011 You are either too drunk or not drunk enough.
Capt. Sterling Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 could not have been too drunk, especially if I was so busy "rewardin"...ahem... myself...and half the population...

Capt. Sterling Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 and what has that got to do with what was in the bales? and the bloody priest? and how many churches there were and windows...

Silkie McDonough Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 Dearest John, perhaps discussions of Monkeys and bales and "rewards" for more private conversations rather than in such a public place. William my good man, the captain is right, you do mention monkeys quite often. Perhaps there is some obsession?

Capt. Sterling Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 Private conversation?... William and I never have private conversations, there is always someone there listening in...

Capt. Sterling Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 **runs finger tip through the thick dust** Lulls? I think things have lulled enough..

William Brand Posted May 12, 2011 Author Posted May 12, 2011 William my good man, the captain is right, you do mention monkeys quite often. Perhaps there is some obsession? Twice is 'quite often'? I think the two of you are obsessed. The mere mention of monkeys causes you both to exaggerate.
CaptainB Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 ::draws some very provacative monkeys in the thick dust:: That oughta stir up a wee bit o' conversation! "If I believed in fate, I wouldn't be playing with loaded dice..."
Capt. Sterling Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Wait! Ye forgot the priest...and no, I cannot recollect what he looked like...did I even speak with him or did I just stare at the Frog whilst ye laughed William?

Capt. Sterling Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 And aye, I AM completely sober... scary is it not?

Capt. Sterling Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 I wasn't then... but I digress....ahem...back to the bales...IF we made that much money off of them in less than two hours time, ye must remind me what was in them, even though I have a strange feeling they were ...ahem...**cough, cough..whispers** not ours to being with..ahem...

William Brand Posted May 12, 2011 Author Posted May 12, 2011 I'm not telling the story without a choir.
Capt. Sterling Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Oh ye need not tell the whole story... just a few bits and pieces...so I can remember all on my own... **especially the bits about the three women and the two sisters...thank god they were pretty....** "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell...

Capt. Sterling Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 I can't believe ye left me on my own for 8hours...

Silkie McDonough Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Leaving Captain Sterling to his on deVICES for eight hours on land explains much. In those days he couldn't keep himself from "entertaining" the ladies and from there he became less and less respectful. *aside: "John are you sure you actually want to remember this?"
Pew Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Any coffee brewing about? I can see that our proprietor is clearly entwined with bales, monkeys, a priest, and a Frog, which may or may not be a Frenchman. I'll grill up a few bacon and egg biscuits in the kitchen.

CaptainB Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 ::pours a pint of whiskey into the coffee pot:: Coffee's goin'! "If I believed in fate, I wouldn't be playing with loaded dice..."
Capt. Sterling Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 'bout time...

Silkie McDonough Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Mr. Pew, so kind of you! dang ...now I want a better breakfast than grains.
William Brand Posted May 12, 2011 Author Posted May 12, 2011 This evening's special will be Roast Garlic Crab. ...and Kibbeh...
Silkie McDonough Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Delightful. I have been thinking Captain Brand, you do not always speak of monkey's, However, it seems that each time I hear you and John conversing "that" particular story is revisited. One would think after all these years John would recall SOMETHING other than the monkey.
Pew Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 I think beating around the bush and a traipse straight through it is necessary to clear the air for those of us unfamiliar to the story. Please. I'll buy this round.
