After yesterday's unpleasantness, Captain Jack needed something to lift his spirits, and by Neptune's trident, today he got it! After a surprise raid upon Last Chance Thrift Store, your Captain came away with a very nice golf shirt for casual Friday, a manly muscle shirt for those lawless weekends of pillaging and debauchery, and a couple of feeding dishes for his faithful feline crew. Mad Bess got herself some fetching tops, a nice cardie, and a framed picture whose matte she plans to use for artistic purposes yet unknown... she's a mystery sometimes, is Bess, and Captain Jack wouldn't have her any other way! :)
Moving right along... Once we'd laid waste to Last Chance, our next target was Bawarchi Indian Restaurant, where we successfully made off with enough grub to last us at least four days at sea: Dal makhani, aloo gobi, samosas, basmati rice, and two kinds of chutney... heck, that's all your basic food groups right there, matey (apart from rum of course, but being pirates we already had plenty of that on board! Arrr!!!)
After all this plundering, once we reached safe harbour Mad Bess and myself decided to relax by watching Glengarry Glen Ross whilst enjoying the spoils of our victories. Now, that there is a film that takes your Captain back to his soul-destroying days at Sun Toyota, trying desperately to lure suckers into buying overpriced automobiles that they can't afford... t'is no wonder he turned to a life of piracy... Captain Jack is just too honourable to be a car salesman! Great movie though, with an all-star cast and surely some kind of record for total number of f-words packed into 100 minutes!
