Shanghied!
Here be the start of this storyYou really don't need the link, just use yer scrolly wheel and stop where the pics of the little pink frog begin.
The very first thought that Cabo had as the blinding sun woke him from his slumber was that not only did he have a heck of a hangover, for his head was throbbing, but that he was possibly still drunk cause the world around him was swaying and unstable. Monkey appeared and thrust his face as close to Cabo’s as he could get without touching him, “Well, look who’s still among the living.” Cabo pushed Monkey away from him and sat up. Then by holding onto a nearby railing he hoisted himself to his feet. After a moment of dizziness and the few seconds it took for his eyes to refocus themselves he was greeted with a truly great shock.
Water! Water everywhere! All the way to the horizon and beyond. The only thing he could see was the great rolling ocean. “Ahoy there frog. It looks like you got yer wish. Take a look around you matey. You’re now a crew member of the Nami-Noru.” Cabo was speechless. It was his plan to board the ship, but he never dreamed that it would happen this way. “Come now frog. There’s lots of work to be done and it’ll be me that is going to show you the ropes.” With that, Monkey grabbed Cabo, thrust him toward the main mast and forced him to climb until they reached the crow’s nest.
Exhausted and shaken Cabo looked out onto the ocean and was awed. Monkey slid up next to him and said “Thar be no better place than way up here to spend a day. When the weather’s clear you feel as if you can see the end of the earth from this spot.” Cabo turned and asked, “Is that what you do? Just sit here and look out over the water all day long?” Monkey grinned. “There’s a lot more to manning the crows nest than just staring out at the water and day dreamin, frog. When you are up here you are the captains’ eyes and the entire crew counts on you to keep a sharp lookout both day and night.” Monkey clapped Cabo on the shoulder. “That’s why I shanghaied you last night. You are going to be the one to take over for me.”
Me no know how much longer this go on.

What an adventure...Hate when I hate up with a hangover!
Can't wait to see where this new twist leads Cabo.
It would suck to have to be up on the crows nest if your nursing a hangover. I bet I would puke.
That monkey!
The monkey sounds exactly like Capt. Jack Sparrow! :)
