Good idea.

What, exactly, is on this island that we want
to seize for our ship, though?

*sharpens sword... er, dagger... er, butterknife...*

paulh, vaccinated against the Omigod Variant

Why, do we want cannibals for our ship?

Oh, all right (provided Pierce says it's all right),
but the cannibals have to stay away from
the Lighthouse Bar on Thursday nights when
most of the smiley - piratesmiley - pirate drink themselves
unconscious. It would be too easy for the cannibals
to9 overpower them then.
