Ok Ok, <<rummages for Y2k compliant pencil>> I'll need to build the inside
of a London Law firm ... no problem. This guy's getting quite a history.
Cool!
So he's an associate with a top London firm, becomes a partner, decides this
sucks, uses what resources he has put together over the years to buy a
(pretty tacky) ship, and sets off for the high seas (of the Pacific) in
search of a purer form of justice <<fanfare>>. He trained his tropical
parrot to speak on his first voyage, as a distraction from the waiting to
arrive. Now the parrot keeps offering unsolicited life advice. He'd shoot
it, but he feels responsible for it.
Here's a telling question for you - does his wife go with him, or must he
leave her behind in London?. And if she stays behind, what's the deal with
the pirate babe?
