The best puns are the ones that you don't detect at first. Later, it suddenly dawns on you that that seemingly innocuous statement was a pun. smiley - doh

Can we dig a canal to the brewery, so we won't have to take the streets? Somehow, there's something intimidating about a pirate ship that sails right up to a brewery or bar. There are very few sould hardy enough to withstand that.

Actually this ship doesn't need water. We can sail through the air a couple feet above the surface if we need to.

er, one thing is disguising the ship in a SEP field, but if we freemantle all the smiley - stout from the brewery we probably will be seen

that's why i suggest we wait till everybody is in church sunday morning smiley - whistle

those who are not in church will be sleeping it off - the rest should be no match smiley - cool

That's a very good plan, Pierce. It's just that Saturday is Talk like a pirate day, so everybody will sound like us, and we can go about our freemantling without being detected.

But you're the boss, and you're a good one.

Arrgh mateys this be International Talk like a pirate day.
However it is not 'Dress like a Pirate Day' so we would still stick out at the brewery. Sunday however I expect I will be sleeping it off.
Good Luck with your raid tommorrow.
