Avast!


Would you take a journey over water with Mister Punch as the ship's captain? I think that I might. Although Mister P is thoroughly disreputable in every other aspect, he does always have his own self-interest in mind -- and it certainly wouldn't be in his best interest to lose a ship at sea with himself in it. Unless, say, the ship was full of policemen, judges, beadles, devils and hangmen... and in that case it would simply be in his best interest not to go down with the ship. 

Bon voyage!

-- Frede.
