Never slide down a shiny metal pole naked.

So, Philo, are you running around yer boat chasing any wench in the area shouting, " Arrrr Matey! Tis I, the Captian of the Loaded Pickle. And I gots one here in me pocket too. It ain’t kosher, but it’s a dilly!"
Avast!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAA
God, you slay me Shirl.
Makes me wish I was a seafarin’ fellah.

Ahem… that’d be a Zesty Dilly shirley , thank you very much… wow it’s waay to late.
Hello, the boat!
If you were three in 1971, doesn’t that make you older than thirty-three? Better cut back on those margaritas – at least while you are boating. 
I know that you must be enjoying your summer break. Do you usually teach year-round?
Zoe - October 2003 I’ll be 34… My forward math is much better. I was 2 in 1971 cuz I was born in 1969.
I am thoroughly enjoying my summer break. This is the first summer I don’t have to teach. So yes, I usually do teach year round. Last summer I taught both summer sessions and winter sprint. Mrs.P wasn’t happy.
And usually we don’t drink whilst underway, but when moored or at dock, we start.
If you’ve been following my latest endeavours…a certain tree house/office has been taking my time this summer.
That is so cool! I’ve always wanted to have a tea house/office in a small wooded area behind the house. Instead we have something even better. Our house is on a hillside. When we added a screened front porch, it put us in the tree tops. I hope that you and Mrs. P enjoy your treehouse as much as we do ours.
You ate a gallon of pickles when you were two years old? It’s a wonder you are alive!
I’m off to the kitchen to get a dish of olives and pickles. I can’t get them off of my mind!
