Ahoy
Here are some things you didn't want to hear if you were a 15th century ship captain:
1. "Sir, we forgot the sails"
2. "West is that way right?"
3. "A mutiny is wrong only if anyone on land finds out about it."
4. "The plank is sanded and ready for use."
5. "The world is not flat, it's triangular."
6. "Ready for inward cannon practice, captain."
7. "The ocean's not really that deep is it?"
8. "I lit some of the wood on the deck 'cause it was getting cold at night."
9. "We don't HAVE to eat the porridge do we?"
10. "You look short in that hat."

"There she blows! - there she blows! A hump like a snow-hill!"
"Captain, sir... all the grog went overboard during the last attack!"
Or, a la SNL's skit of a shipful of men:
"Hey Jimmy, have you done something new with your hair? It's faaabulous!

Nothing like 15th century ship humour to make me laugh. :)
How's about:
"I drilled a hole in the hull because I thought an indoor swimming pool would be nice."
ppd: good work...keep the creativity flowing
jlb: good ones
mr.althouse: nice...that would've gone over very well
oilf: yes always...good stuff...a saltwater pool at that
