Ahoy matey!



Laugh! Sing! Dance!

F
or today is a new day, and Dave hath set sail on a fantastic voyage of a literary endeavor aboard the jolly good ship USS Dainty Scamp. Tis a hearty and stout ship; having recently served a long and respectable duty as an ocean cruise liner for the adventurous vacationer yearning for the excitement of being trapped on a coffin-like vessel but with the amenities of four star hotel, the Dainty Scamp has heard the siren call of the open seas and has responded in kind with a hearty ‘Aye matey, we rides tonight like the homeys roll deep to da club’.

Surely, these writing seas are beset with many a peril: pirates who be bitin’ other people’s shit, mythical sea monstrosities that swallow ships whole (or, anything else that cuts into writing time, otherwise known as jobs, the distraction of loved ones, the daily upkeep of hygiene, etc.), and the most evil of all evils, the dreaded libel laws of ‘the man’ that keep many a good baseless and slanderous yarn from seeing the light of day.

But with an overactive imagination, a gross misunderstanding of social norms and conventions, and an excellent HMO plan to address known neurosis and those yet to manifest, I have full confidence the good captain ‘chairmandave’ can traverse any rough seas on the horizon.

It feels good to set sail, for Dave has long been at bay and has longed for the open sea...
