Default A Weird Blue Glow

*A Weird Blue Glow*

Late one night in October, 1864, a Confederate blockade runner, under
the cover of fog, slipped by some Union gunboats at the entrance to
Galveston Bay in Texas and made it safely to port with its cargo of
food and other necessities.

Louis Billings, the master of the small vessel, was getting ready to
weigh anchor when he was startled by a shriek from one of the crew.

"A strange, old-fashioned schooner with a big black flag was rushing
down at us," Billings said later. "She was afire with a sort of weird,
pale-blue light that lighted up every nook and cranny of her.

"The crew was pulling at the ropes and doing other work, and they paid
us no attention, didn't even glance our way. They all had ghastly
bleeding wounds, but their faces and eyes were those of dead men.

"The man who had shrieked had fallen to his knees, his teeth chattering
as he gasped out a prayer. Over coming my own terror, that was chilling
the very marrow of my bones, I rushed forward, shouting to the others
as I ran. Suddenly the schooner vanished before my eyes."

Some say that it was the ghost of Jean Lafitte's pirate ship, the
Pride, that sank off the Galveston Island in 1821 or 1822. She was seen
again in 1892 in the same waters with the same crew.

And yet still others claim, and they seem to be right, that Joe is a
homo pinhead who lives on a steel hulk that never leaves the dock. In
fact he only posts an ancient B&W picture of it with it's absurd ports
and wallowing lines.
Blue glow? Good grief.

Ohhhh Rob,
Joe's not a homo, and I do not think he is into our lifestyle.

You should look for homo's at the benny site, it's full of them.
You can find that 69 your looking for there. Teee Teheh

I like the colors of Redcloud, it's salty. Just search ASA for " 1
whistle " and you will see a color pitcher muffin. His boat is hard as
steel (if you know what I mean), btw I swiped some viagra for you.

Later, i just rinsed the anal therometer and have to get back to work,
late shift baby.

P.S. I put a new bulb in your nite light
