Being slightly inspired by scendan's Cracked Carrie missives, I wrote Cap'n Slappy. He wrote back, and it's here. Scroll down a bit for my letter & response.

Although I was slightly disappointed he didn't take the semi-obvious opening for John "Iron-Britches"' new nickname...

The Salty Squid had t’ be renamed “The Squatting Squitter” and its crew barely avoided capture, incapacitated as they were. As t’ Cap’n Iron-Britches, well, you probably have heard o' his current nick-name.

LMAO

Beautiful!

Beware, writing Cap'n Slappy becomes addictive!

BTW...

SLIGHTLY inspired only?

I think I be insulted!

Well, going for a different tack than you took, really... besides, I don't think I can compete with the carving of the Four Wenches o' the Apocalypse. On a blustery day.

LOL!

I loved the bit where one of Nigel's crew got impaled on the pointy bits during said blustery day. Gotta get the crew back to their jobs...too much polishing of the pointy bits. ;)

MUST write a letter today. I've been remiss.

Any idea?

Is Captain Sir Nigel one of the guys, or just a waaay-too-inventive letter writer (such as yourself)?

Re: Any idea?

[scendan.livejournal.com]

He is a waaaay-too-inventive letter writer, who apparently hails from Great Britain. That's all I know.

He's mysterious, is our boy Nigel.

Thanks! I had fun writing it. Addictive, yah - now I'm trying to come up with something worthwhile to respond...

Okay, I'm addicted now.

I've been working on the special Valentine's Day menu at the Slovenly Slattern. I may get it done and submitted this weekend.

Hysterical mutiny story, BTW!

Cool! Can't wait to see the menu! Carrie may have to come in and get some grub. ;)

And thanks for the compliment...
