A pelican dives down and grabs him and returns him to the deck then flies back and lands in the hot tub.

shagbark returns to the nest climbs into tub

The Captain said he might want to shake hands with Lili, it looks like he is about to get his chance

I do think that is the shore of Cuba over there.
I believe the Captain is needed on the bridge.

*Is greatly relieved that Cal was rescued, but hopes that he now sobers up enough to get below. A hurricane is not something to fool around with... or in... whatever the case may be..*
Shagbark, I think that the wind is picking up. I can tell from your hair. It's all going sort of sideways. *Sees Pelican has his head tucked under his wing.* I don't think we can come into port in this blow... although they do say 'any port in a storm...' Do you think they meant Port? *Pours

Somebody mention a Port? Don't mind if I do .....
Just so you know, we're hove to off Fidel's North coast, so maybe a Cuba Libre would be appropriate?

Hello? Bridge? I can't see a thing up here! Its raining rather hard and the wind is howling. If you say we are off Cuba, I believe you... I just can't confirm it. *sputter-hack-cough-chattering of teeth noises-etc* T'ain't a fit night for man nor beast... 
*Huddles down into the hot tub trying to protect herself with her 
pulled over her head. It doesn't work.*

*Grins at Cal vacantly as she sips her and hopes that Pierce will find a port soon (the drinking or docking type)*
Are those the pterodactyls things that ancient Chinese emperors used to have buried with them in their tombs? 
*Drops a terracotta vase on Mari's toe*
Sorry 'bout that me old dearie (or should that be old Deeres?)!

Batty_ACE Posted Oct 2, 2002

Deeres as in antique tractors?

Why?

Gwennie Posted Oct 2, 2002
You'd have to ask Mari about that one but yes indeed it is Deeres and in the antique tractor type and big red ones if my mammary serves me correctly!
