LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Avast ye lubber Editor:

Yarrrrr, me hearty! Sumptin' seems amiss in yer study: 'Pirhanas Eventually Grow Weary of all Cat Diet'. It's a whale of a story, no doubtin', but it's fishy nonetheless. But it does me ol' bones good to hear that salty dog Phantom's got hisself thrown in the brig, and well he should, b'gum! 'Tis fair past time that scurvy Gentl'man 'o' the road done got bilged on his own anchor! Now that the cat's out 'o' th' bag (and not in the fish, so to speak), we'll be havin' no more scuttlebutt from one 'o' the scuppered class, and greasy as an eel to boot! Mayhap more of his bilge-suckin' brood will be dancin' the hempin' jig (if ye pardon me parlance, savvy?).

P.S. Begad, ye blaggardly swabs 'o' the Barrow Downs, keep yer presses shipshape and sailin' full speed ahead. For, truth to tell, we use yer paper in the head, so there be no mess on the poopdeck!

Best wishes, matey, and kiss the gunner's daughter,
Cap'n Melville Pequod
HMS 'Enry Morgan
