A Test for Seasickness

Speaking of seasickness, I have designed a test for you so you can see if you are cut out for the high seas. Go HERE and click on the "Kid's Stuff" link on the left. Stare at the screen for 10 seconds. If you don't pull over your trashcan and immediately puke your guts out, climb aboard.

Okay, Okay, so you hate me now for making you look at that...get over it.

Reality Television--Pirate Master, Episode 1

I enjoyed tonight's debut of Pirate Master on CBS. The ambiance aboard the ship was actually convincing without seeming like an overdone-theme park, so kudos to the set designers.

John, the "scientist/exotic dancer" (what a combination) was the first to be sent home, despite a well-delivered attempt to incite mutiny. My guess is that he was the biggest threat and the others feel that they have plenty of time to deal with the newly-emerged captain, Joe Don...who came off as a royal-asshat and power-hungry little pimp. I just hope the others don't wait too long to cut Joe Don adrift...I am not sure how much of his swaggering about I can tolerate before I get seasick. I had a slight bout of seasickness already when Joy proved to be quite the drama queen...sigh.

All-in-All an interesting reality show.

Pirate Master to Debut Tomorrow on CBS

Pirate Master, the new reality television show from CBS, is set to debut, Thursday, May 31st at 8PM ET/PT...for more information click here. Sixteen modern-day pirates embark on a backstabbing adventure of a lifetime. This sounds like MY KIND of entertainment...especially the backstabbing.;)

If you really want to be in fine form (meaning you are pretty much a total role-playing GEEK) for the debut, you can get your pirate name here by doing a short, but somewhat cheesy and entertaining, quiz.
