[warmbreath at comcast.net]

Aboard the Black Pearl sailing on it's way to that Famous Pirate Hideout and 
Hangout Jamaica:

Captain Jack is pacing the deck reading an urgent dispatch, he stares at it 
again.
a hundred colors of emotion play over his face
All of a sudden he bursts into action screaming  "Her Royal Highness the 
Princess is coming, Here!!! Here to the Black pearl. Avast mates' front and 
center , we must make all ready. OMG!!! The Princess, what to do, what to 
do, SAMMYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!  What do I do!

Shipwreck Sam Comes running up tripping over his sword, other piggies come 
running too!! "What is it Captain, man overboard? grog poisoning!"
"NO! Fool it's the Princes, the Princess."
"Slow down sir, what do you mean????"
"I mean THE PRINCESS!!!!!"
"All respects Captain sir what is it about the Princess????"
"You know, the Princess, the Princess of all Cavydom, the Princess Snowflake 
is coming, she's coming here, anytime,  and she maybe without entourage! How 
can that be What can whee do! OMG!!! Whee already had the Sno Ball Dance, 
She might be angry,  What to do, Sammmy what am I going to do!"

Shipwreck Sam scratches his head, hat in hand, "OK!! OK!! OK!!  it's all 
going to be fine,  First remember you promised HRH that she could use your 
very own quarters?  They must be prepared immediately, you can bunk with 
Barnacle Bill and me.
Second  Whee shall just have another party, lets see, hmmmm!! whee can call 
it 'The Princess' New Year's Invitational"

The Captain, who has calmed slightly and now seems only slightly sweaty and 
has passed the hyperventilation stage without conking out!, a very fine 
thing to avoid if you are the Captain of a pirate vessel! Says "OK Mr. Sam, 
It might work"

" Yea, OK!" he says, "but what about the entourage, she is the princess, she 
CANT not have an entourage, its just no seemly"
Again Sammy scratches his head, "well!, I think whee could just ask for 
volunteers" Whee shall need ladies-in-waiting, Footmen, and a Royal 
Secretary!"  The Captain shoots back "what about a consort!!!"
Sam says "well whee can't just get a new one of those, either her husband 
comes or he doesn't, that's just the way it is, better tell the boars not to 
hit on her if she comes without consort, very unseemly, yes indeed, very 
unseemly"

Captain Jack, now firmly in control steps up to the rail and booms down to 
the mass of piggies and pirates who have gathered below, and who hang from 
the rigging with the ease of monkeys in a forest. He Booms: "HRH, Princess 
Snowflake will be arriving to join our sail anytime soon and whee must 
prepare the Pearl for her arrival. I need volunteers to be her attendants, 
handmaidens, footmen, butler, secretary, etc. And I proclaim a ball in HRH 
honor, to be known as  "The Princess' New Year's Invitational", Barnacle 
Bill will be the Chief Chef, he's like an Iron Chef. My quarters must be 
prepared, Bill, could you start preparing an afternoon tea for her arrival? 
She will be here anytime!!  Look Sharp there you Piggie Pirates!!"

The piggies below become even more excited and start popcorning and waving 
their scarves, "Another Party!! The Princess comes," they chant, "The 
Princess comes!!!"
Then Sam posts a list for sign ups on the wall and the piggies all happy and 
chattering "OH! I could be a lady-in-waiting, says one, no me says another, 
another wants to be a footman, a fourth says he can type so he will be the 
secretary, the list  starts to grow, the story will 
continue...................
