On thought, it would be pretty difficult to break your ossicles. Not without splattering your head, anyway.

No, you’ve got it wrong. Dom’s use ropes & sailors, & skydivers use ropes. Sailors get wind in their face, skydivers get wind in their face, & a could blow on you, in a teasing manner. See, all _very_ similar. She’s probably used to continuing her whippings, or other Dom activities unless one uses a safe word. If Fuiava had said the safe word, then Appel would have triggered the EPIRB or sat phone months earlier. :rolleyes:

In this case, I’d say Google was your friend for _ **not** _ finding the results.

Somehow the phrase; rum, sodomy and the lash comes to mind.

That was what the “unwillingness to quit on a scene” part was all about.

Unless, of course, floating around for 5 months and living in a fantasy **WAS** the scene.

Man, how many pages would **THAT** “Activity Release of Liability, Waiver of Claims, Express Assumption of Risk & Indemnity Agreement” go on for? It might look like a phone book.  
(I did understand and appreciate the joke)

So who provided all those photos to the Daily Fail? I’m guessing Appel is adding “talent manager” & “publicist” to her resume.

Several are from her book. At least one is from her blog, speedqueen08, on AdultFriendFinder, which I am not going to link to but which can be found easily.

If you don’t drink your rum, you can’t have any sodomy! How can you have any sodomy if you don’t drink your rum?!?

Now I’m apprehensive that the next revelation will be that Fuiava is a Furry.

# Ref the earlier posts too, I agree that dominatrices is the classic plural formation everyone’s 4th grade English teacher would prefer\*. I chose the other one deliberately because the “x” just looks crunchier and more aggressive. There’s nothing fussy and schoolmarmish about a sea-faring dominatrix. Demanding? Yes. Fussy? No.

- or be. 😃 / :eek:

ETA: shoulda’ve refreshed from a couple hours ago before dinner. Ninja’d in slow motion by the esteemed **DG**.

And who else would know best of this? 🙂

The Dope. There is NOTHING we don’t have experts on/in.

Can’t be much time left on her 15 minute clock, right?

I’m sure she’s going to milk this for all it’s worth. Her new dominatrix outfit will be based on Captain Bligh.
