Pirate Jokes with Brad & Matt
FUN FACT:
There were in fact 2 novels written well before the event.
The first work was written in 1886 by W.T. Stead, a prominent spiritualist and investigative journalist.
A novel about a seemingly ‘unsinkable’ ship that was hit by an iceberg was published in 1898 – 14 years before the Titanic sunk.
“How the Mail Steamer Went Down in Mid Atlantic, by a Survivor” tells the story of an unnamed ocean liner that sinks in the Atlantic. In the story, the protagonist is a sailor named Thompson, who grows concerned over the lifeboat shortage on deck. Sure enough, the liner collides with a small sailing ship in a fog.

This story was originally published in the Pall Mall Gazette in 1886 and later in the Review of Reviews following Stead's death. It is often cited as anticipating the sinking of the Titanic.

News in this month.
There was some dirty talk going on in that tavern this month I can tell you!
Argo felt faint a number of times and had to take some quite a few 'time outs' to gather herself, closing her eyes and blocking her ears.. a lot!
With the love goddess, Lolita and her attempts to purify herself lasting for fully 45 minutes as recorded by Dez himself, its no wonder folk are questioning themselves and each other.
I mean who goes from a Lolita to nun at the snap of a finger? Doomed idea from the start I say. Its nice to have the real Lolita back! Its clear the LOLITA-NUN thing is a fail.
Soleil too has hooked up with the Pope in Vatican City and there are requests for her to explain herself...The updated avatar tells all ... but I ll leave that up to her.
Til next time, smooth seas and God Speed!
