Is a captain not the prince of his ship?

I would think the Captain would be more like a King than a prince.

I don't know for sure, but I *think* that's why they invented mermaids.

I love the rich mahogany woodwork in this bar.
The moosehead over the door is an extra touch of class.
All the sconces have red ribbon bows and holly around them.
The Dutch masters paintings are another nice touch, set off against the cream-colored walls.
The 
and and 
and 
are nice, too.

I said "Dutch masters" because I couldn't remember Rembrandt's name.

well, there has been quite a debate about the autenticity of quite a lot of his w*rks. apparently he let apprentices do a lot of the basic w*rk, then gave the finishing touch himself. so maybe dutch masters is indeed a more correct label

I doubt that anhone will ever really *know* how much of what went into famous paintings was done by the artists whose names appeared on them. In Renaissance Italy, the big guys had helpers and apprentices.

I hope you patented the place soon after inventing it, Light.
Otherwise, everyone would have one by now....
