Black Hearted Pearl Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 I'm not crazy about it. Something simplier would be more elegant. This is just too much on the gaudy side for a captain, but perhaps not a pirate. ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind. The realist adjusts the sails.

Captain Jim Posted December 22, 2005 Author Posted December 22, 2005 Holy cats, Hurricane. Ye can surely whip up a tempest with even the simplest of posts. Mind you, I agree with all fo the others 'ere. To live in the south, have a verandah and not have a rockin' chair in which to enjoy one's mint juleps and tell lies after the quail hunt would be uncivilized. On the other hand, Lady Seahawke's suggested usage isn't so bad either, although that chair has far too many pointy parts on it. OUCH! I also agree with Pearl, too gaudy for me but a fine bit o' work nonetheless. My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
