My crew and I thank you for such a wonderful presentation, but more especially for all the other great work you do.

Scuttlebutt and Fred Mertz are off somewhere ashore handing out temperance tracts. LadyX and Cobbie have gone ashore with bail money looking for them. Beowolf is guarding the grog barrel. Snow Bunny is cleaning today's fish catch.

We will be here another month and then head toward Australia to visit friends in Melbourne and points east.

Hi, there, Cap'n. You were so much fun to 'present' - and can I have your autograph? :)

Murphy's Love Laws


All the good ones are taken.

If the person isn't taken, there's a reason. (corr. to 1)

The nicer someone is, the farther away (s)he is from you.

Brains x Beauty x Availability = Constant.

The amount of love someone feels for you is inversely proportional to how much you love them.

Money can't buy love, but it sure gets you a great bargaining position.

The best things in the world are free --- and worth every penny of it.

Every kind action has a not-so-kind reaction.

Nice guys(girls) finish last.

If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Availability is a function of time. The minute you get interested is the minute they find someone else.

More great Murphy's Laws to be found on ofMagog's homepage.

Well deserved, you are one of the Finest! I finally got around to donating to FR this year due to your clever post after I followed your link that made it so simple to do.
It's nice to finally see the boat that I have tried to imagine you and your wife traveling in.
I'm still not convinced you're not Ernest's love child though! ;-)

Ah, Mon Capitan!
What a joy to honor you here today in front of all of Freeperdom!

Cobby is on a 'Secret Mission' at the moment and should be checking in later.
Not to worry - I am holding on to the bail money to dole out as needed...:)))
Amazing how many bail bondsmen I have come to know in the ports, Scuttlebutt and Fred Mertz ALWAYS in trouble on shore leave.

Freepers, you need to know that Captain ofMagog has kindly given us free professional Group Therapy aboard ship, and assures us his 'psychoceramics' are fully...fully...operational?!!
LOL

Our Sea Sagas began about April a year ago, and we take these imaginary trips around the world to relieve the stresses of mundane lives.
(Note that ofMagog and his wife actually ARE sailing the high seas, and currently are in New Zealand.)

We take on all pirates and an occasional liberal who crosses our wake, adept a giving 'wake-up' calls.

*SALUTE!* DEAR CAPTAIN!!

Congratulations, ofMagog! I hope you enjoy your day in the spotlight.

What an interesting life you have! I am so envious of your travels. I love the ocean and I love sailing. If I had my druthers, I would be doing what you are doing.

I see it is already tomorrow in your corner of the world, so I will leave you with a wish for a 'happy tomorrow'. Have a good one, Cap'n.

Congratulations on being One of FR's Finest.

I think we should all meet later in Key West for a sunset celebration....and then adjourn to one of the bars that Papa frequented there...

I have found some Nigerians, who will help us with the bail fund, if we will help them get their money out of country.
