George the party man

George was a pirate, but he wasn’t a very good pirate.

This wasn’t in just skill, but also in discipline.

“I’m leaving the ship for a few days,” said the captain. “No parties while I’m gone, okay?”

“Aye aye, captain,” said George.

George broke out the rum and arranged music, games, dancing, and fencing matches.

Come dawn, the ship was everything but a wreck at the bottom of the bay when the captain came back.

“Are you mad I made a mess, sir?” said George.

“No,” said the captain. “I’m mad you threw a great party and I wasn’t invited,”
