My Dear Sir Christopher,
Thank you kindly for your critique of my new banner. I felt it was past time for a new version. The old one was getting dusty, anyway.
And so, my wonderful friend, waylayer of words, corruptor of cadence, and dangler of participles; let us gather up our mates and make to the Douwesen waterfalls! We need to start this weekend early!! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/buds.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

Your's truly has had his full fill
with romance, but never the still!
So fill up yer flask,
and should the bartender ask,
tell 'him it all be on good Fred Bob's bill!
So drink up! as good Sir Chris said!
Let the sweet nectar run to yer head!
We'll sing shanties 'til dawn,
and should one of ye yawn,
we'll pour stale coffee down ye, instead!
You'll find no finer mates than right here,
Who'll stand with ye, when ye've run low of cheer.
They'll raise ye back up,
and fill full yer cup
with good whiskey, rum, or strong beer!
