Default What if you meet the Flying Dutchman???

I've just watched the new Pirates of the Caribbean and now I'm
really afraid of Davy Jones and the Flying Dutchman.

What if they are really out there? There are so many ships
that mysteriously disappear each year, never to be seen
again. All those myths have some truth in them...

I doubt that I can ever cruise the open sea anymore...

What would you do if the Flying Dutchman was after you???

Ah....something to ponder at 3AM, in your harness chained to the
stancion, alone on the cockpit listening to nothing but the waves....with
no moon and nearly blind by the darkness of the sea.

Spooky, VERY spooky!

According to the mythology in POTC: DMC, Davy Jones only lays claim to the
"dead or dying," offering them a choice between facing judgment or serving
aboard the Dutchman, "100 years before the mast."

It's a pretty good deal, if you believe the alternatives....(c;

Don't worry about the "Dutchman" ... worry that you will end up
working with Davy Jones of the Monkeys.

How many times can you sing "last train to Clarksville" before you are
bonkers?
