Set Sonic Weapons to Stune ..
Prepare to Discharge..
zzzzzz.. zzzutt ..
I think they should let passengers shoot superballs with small charges at the pirates.. Heck, they used to let ya shoot clay pigeons and golf balls not so long ago.. well, not at pirates but ..
Regardless,, cruising is an acquired taste,, nothing like calm seas and a gentle breeze, a steady hand at the helm.. a sunset to die for.. but don’t lean out to far on the railing.. ya never know.
There was a really funny e-mail going around advertising a cruise specifically to shoot pirates a couple years ago...it’s probably on the web somewhere.
