Really good story!

thank you so much Werty...

Words have a knack of doing that, don't they? And this was a fun little diddy, a cute reminder of olden times, when the ships were made of good old wood and tar and hemp rope. Well done, Vix, well done indeed, I like how even the narrative was in a sort of accent as it was being told by the fellow himself >^_^<

thank you so very much Fritti... I do like when things start coming together...

Hell of a job interview.

Well told, as always, V.

As job interviews go, I would have to agree with you...

Thanks much Wire...

Vix

The ship's name was the Walloping Window-Blind?

I think that might work...

Vix

ty ty ty... we have another show at 8...

Vix

One short job interview and character reference rolled into one! Good one, Vix

*smiles so big... thank you...

Vix

Do specific words really bring back your distant memories these days?

oh yes... as with anyone, there are memories I would rather forget entirely. If allowed, these memories can definitely affect your present mood.

How far back can you remember? Mine can range back as far as around a year old. Some of these are just bits and pieces, but others are more solid.

*laughs... these days remembering yesterday's dinner are more difficult. This is just life, and I can accept that.

Vix

That tavern keeper is the very definition of tough love, isn't he?

This was a fantastic read, and its great to see old Big Dick is still kicking arse.

*laughs… me too!

Vix

Haha! That is a heck of an interview. Guess it's hard to turn a guy down after that!

*laughs... I would say so, too...

Vix

Wonderful story! The dialogue was my favorite part, because each character had their own different way of speaking. It made the story more fun to read!

*smiles very big... thank you so much...
