As for me, The Cap'n is a "time traveler". I was actually born in 1592. In 1610, I was a midshipman aboard the HMS Smithly. She went down north of the Lofotens (at the arctic circle). I was frozen instantly and the wreckage drifted further north, and wasn't discovered until 1976, the year that Gypsea was born (see my last post above).
Reborn, if you will, on the 200th Anniversary of the United States, I was defrosted and electrified by a top secret NASA research team that had been laid off after the Apollo program. I was immediately enrolled in the Naval Academy in Annapolis, so they could keep a close eye on me. After graduation, it was natural to go back to sea (and it was great that I could still fit into my old uniform). A few years later I met Gypsea, at a keg party for wandering beach lovers. She loved the uniform, I loved her AVATAR, and we were married within days.
The honeymoon lasted for a month and we settled down in NOFLA, near SOWAL. The day we moved in to our first house, we were hit by a hurricane, and have been charmed by whirlies ever since.
What's amazing about this story is how much of it is actually true! Age is an attitude!!!
