[Gpdd] [Virtual] Piggies Christmas Pirate Cruise and SnoBall

[warmbreath at comcast.net]

Oh! Come All Yee Faithful!!!   The Black Pearl to Sail from Trinidad 
forthwith

The Pirate crew of the Black Pearl does hereby invite for immediate boarding 
and subsequent adventure, sailing, and partying, the entire piggy 
inhabitants of the GPDD World. Parent Slaves are required to get their own 
ships as whee know a Christmas Cruise probably sounds fine to all, but they 
wont fit on the Black Pearl, she be pigs only!!!

This constitutes your invitation and boarding pass, piggies themselves will 
make their own reservations to PigAir and may commence boarding at once or 
join us during the Cruise at any point. Any pig may come and go via PigAir 
or their own conveyance as often as needed in order to satisfy parent/slaves 
requirements for home visits, whee dont want to mess up their holiday plans 
or make them lonely or nervous without their piggies, note, however, 
sometimes its a good thing to separate briefly.

Since it's a virtual Cruise, sick or poorly piggies are welcome to join the 
fun and will be given special accommodation if needed, whee are sure there 
will be nurse piggies volunteer.

Rules, none  except parent slaves should attempt to help out other PS's who 
have sick or injured piggies via GPDD, before writing about our fun 
adventure, whee dont want sick piggies to remain without the services of the 
GPDD

Accommodations. Boars will be housed in a large portion of the hold in 
tiered hammocks. Sows and Children will divide up the staterooms with 
whomever they wish to room with. Goodies may be brought along, but food and 
grog provided.

The SnoBall will be Piggy Dress, which means each piggie decides to come in 
costume, formal, au-naturel, or just Hats and Scarves, and swords
There will be an on board Christmas tree and each  piggie will have one 
present to open from Santa Pig. It is permissible for special friends to 
exchange gifts. Caroling is bound to break out.

The Black Pearl's outfitted with a computer for emails home that parent 
slaves may post on GPDD with the above title to let us all know what they 
are doing, meeting, partying etc. Each piggy may bring their own phone or 
netbook for messaging, but it's the piggies themselves, through their 
slaves, that write the story whether it be one paragraph or a short 
adventure, hopefully each pig will manage their slave to write at least 
once, multiples are great. whee must be careful not to overwhelm the 
moderator.

The Black Pearl has a Captain, the honorable Captain Jack who makes any 
judgments rulings, decisions, judges disputes, and orders our course and all 
stop over's. He may delegate jobs and substitutes as he sees fit

Side trips are at the sole discretion of our piggy guests, however if you 
miss your sailing you will be required to contact Pigair and meet up with us 
again, however the Captain will in all cases try to rescue any pig who falls 
overboard, with the exception of any pig who has been made to walk the 
plank, so dont make the Captain angry

Many jobs are available for volunteers, any jobs not filled by a volunteer 
may be conscripted out at the Captains order. Not to sound cranky, but the 
food must be prepared, the sick cared for, the poop deck mucked out, 
banquets prepared, parties organized, laundry done, deck hands are needed 
for look outs and rigging jobs, rowing ship to shore, cargo handling, etc., 
so it's best to pick your own job. This does not apply to the Princess and 
her Royal Consort, who, should they grace us with their presence, already 
have jobs.

All piggies may choose to be a pirate or passenger, however, if attacked all 
hands must turn out to defend the ship.

The adventure will end when all piggies have left or completed their stories 
or News Year Day which ever is sooner, however the Black Pearl is always 
available to any GP needing adventure, a quick get-away, or secret tryst. 
She is always sailing somewhere, PigAir knows. Please note in cloudy or foul 
weather whee often sense visits from Bridge Piggies and this phenomena is to 
be hoped for.

Let the arrivals and the stories commence!!!!

Note to Parent Slaves, your written contributions may be in any GPDD 
acceptable format, i.e. narrative, letter, home, short story, all 
submissions are warmly welcome, there will not be a narrator per see' except 
Shipwreck Sam's slave is given to write occasionally but will not be writing 
the "story"  the piggies will through their slaves.

This voyage is at the warmest behest of our friend and Captain Jack's and 
Barnacle Bill's Slave, Alge.

Questions via GPDD to Shipwreck Sam or if it is a private question, to his 
Slave Sandy at warmbreath at comcast.net  however her computer is finicky.
in all cases the moderators have the last word
