I have created a sleuth miracle!

IT IS THE UNHIJACKABLE THREAD!

Go ahead and try, but this thread is about anything and nothing, all at the the same time!

This is the place where Al can talk about world domination, Crunch can worship David Hasselhoff, SS can try and find even more complicated questions for his pub quizzes, Nikkie can advertise for Tim Tams, cfm can troll for more Sharpie victims, JR can beg for the chance to win Bobo back, and bedazzling can be a way of life!

So go off, rant and rave, talk about anything, i don't care, I just wanted to see my avatar on the page (when its actually me anyways)

So go ahead, I dare you all to try and hijack me :)

I would just like to say that I think that Lady Ruby Caplan is one of the sweetest people on Sleuth. And anyone who likes Pinky and the Brain is obviously of superior intellect.

Boyle's Law:

PV = k

"For a fixed mass of ideal gas at fixed temperature, the product of pressure and volume is a constant."
Where:
P is the pressure of the gas
V is the volume of the gas
k is a constant, and has units of force times distance.

Derelict
Fifteen men on the Dead Man's Chestâ€"
Drink and the devil had done for the restâ€"
The mate was fixed by the bos'n's pike,
The bos'n brained with a marlin spike,
And Cookey's throat was marked belike
It had been gripped
By fingers ten;
And there they lay,
All good dead men
Like break-o'-day in a boozing-kenâ€"
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

Fifteen men of the whole ship's listâ€"
Dead and be damned and the rest gone whist!â€"
The skipper lay with his nob in gore
Where the scullion's axe his cheek had shoreâ€"
And the scullion he was stabbed times four.
And there they lay,
And the soggy skies
Dripped all day long
In upstaring eyesâ€"
In murk sunset and at foul sunriseâ€"
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

Fifteen men of 'em stiff and starkâ€"
Ten of the crew had the Murder markâ€"
'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead,
Or a yawing hole in a battered headâ€"
And the scuppers glut with a rotting red
And there they layâ€"
Aye, damn my eyesâ€"
All lookouts clapped
On paradiseâ€"
All souls bound just contrariwiseâ€"
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum.

Fifteen men of 'em good and trueâ€"
Every man jack could ha' sailed with Old Pewâ€"
There was chest on chest full of Spanish gold,
With a ton of plate in the middle hold,
And the cabins riot of stuff untold,
And they lay there,
That had took the plum,
With sightless glare
And their lips struck dumb,
While we shared all by the rule of thumbâ€"
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

More was seen through the stern light screenâ€"
Chartings no doubt where a woman had been!â€"
A flimsy shift on a bunker cot,
With a thin dirk slot through the bosom spot
And the lace stiff dry in a purplish blot.
Oh was she wench…
Or some shuddering maid…?
That dared the knifeâ€"
And took the blade!
By God! she was stuff for a plucky jadeâ€"
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

Fifteen men on the Dead Man's Chestâ€"
Drink and the devil had done for the restâ€"
We wrapped 'em all in a mains'l tight
With twice ten turns of a hawser's bight
And we heaved 'em over and out of sightâ€"
With a Yo-Heave-Ho!
And a fare-you-well!
And a sullen plunge
In the sullen swell,
Ten fathoms deep on the road to hell!
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

Which reminds me that September 19th is apparently Talk Like A Pirate Day.
