+ | ====== The Manly Physique ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | As requested by the Baronet Clive Masterly on the twenty third night of March in bequest of Baron Von Munchausen to one Captain Sir Robert, Gentleman Pirate. Being transcripts of some merit. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **I hope this story can be kept... well I trust you to remember there are ladies present. | ||
+ | |||
+ | That is an interesting story. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Baron Celsius: Which is it sir?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Well, Physique, of course. | ||
+ | I'd just finished delivering a rather large cargo consisting largely of rubber ducks and rabbit tails to a certain good friend of mine and I was looking around for other things to do when I received a commission. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Baronet Clive: Privateers, please.** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Yes, that too. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Lord Peter: It is a wonderful thing to be a pirate king?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Well, it's not too shabby now that you mention it. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Baron Celsius: Perhaps a demonstration sir?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Since you asked - [sings]It is, it is a glorious thing to be a pirate king... | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Baronet Clive: Didn't it complicate matters after finding out you were a pirate king, when Catherine declared herself your pirate queen?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Yes, that was rather interesting. | ||
+ | This led to an immediate problem in that we were running short of sopranos. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Baron Celsius: I do sir, but I'm looking at my meagre purse.** | ||
+ | |||
+ | [Baronet Clive Masterly spots Celsius a coin] | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Baron Celsius: Why were Altos so easy to come by? Especially during the Tuning Fork strike?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Tuning Fork strike was indeed something of an issue because before any attack, of course, we have to sing our aria. It's a bit difficult if you don't have the right note to begin with, the whole attack just goes south very badly. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Hon. Hyacynth: Surely there was also the impact of the noble cold, as you need your voice?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | That was indeed a problem, all of my crew being noblemen. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Lady Floria: And orphans.** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Oh you heard that, did you? | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Lord Peter: Frequently.** | ||
+ | |||
+ | On the good ship Manly Physique, many of the cabin boys find themselves naturally turning into altos in later years, I still haven' | ||
+ | |||
+ | On the good ship Manly Physique, with our one soprano, pulled into the port of St. Petersburg where indeed we were met by Tsarina Catherine and her flock hunting rabbits. | ||
+ | |||
+ | We were asked to perform, which I did. It was very well received by the people of St. Petersburg, and indeed Moscow for some reason. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Lady Floria: It was probably all the treasure.** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Which she immediately took for her own purposes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Hon. Hyacynth: Was this when you discovered that it was all part of a plot by Rasputin?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Yes. Now Rasputin was a strange, strange man. Some kind of monk, supposedly, I never believed it. He was attempting to persuade the Tsarina that the state dish of Moscow should in fact be Vulture A L' | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Baronet Clive: What had this to do with the cargo of giant-sized cucumbers the Tsarina had just seized?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Well, the poor women appeared to have a vitamin deficiency or something. | ||
+ | |||
+ | So, well, Rasputin was there, trying to get his Vulture A L' | ||
+ | |||
+ | There are ladies present, so I won't go into the full details, but lets just say, Catherine and I, and the horse... | ||
+ | I turned her head, shall I say. She then proceeded to release our ship despite the failure of Rasputin' | ||
+ | |||
+ | And that is the story, with no detail whatsoever because there are ladies present. | ||
