oh Becca, ilu! (now to just get her on LJ...)
I know I just posted, but Becca utterly amuses me:
Becca: oh! you know what i learned the other day? Global warming is the result of fewer pirates in the world:
Becca: http://www.cafepress.com/venganza/3704496
nutmeg: that does make sense
Becca: i agree!
nutmeg: our new mission, should we dare to accept it, is to increase the world pirate population!
Becca: i accept! You know how much i adore pirate coats! And cutlasses are pretty cool
nutmeg: I'm a fan of the rum, myself
Becca: yes, the rum is very important
nutmeg: where would we be without it? Probably all still in Europe, that's where!
Becca: you know, you may be right. What reason would we have to emigrate to the Americas?
nutmeg: chocolate?
Becca: yes, that is true. The spanish used it as currency, you know. So did the mayans. The english and french used to dump the 'worthless' cacao beans off captured ships.
[a little later...]
Becca: yes. the mayans ... human sacrifice vs chocolate as currency ... and i am forced to conclude that they weren't a bad bunch
