Stay Tuned Next Week for another Edition, Part 3: The Mystical Orb
Horatio made it to the shore, weak, thirsty and barely any life left in his body. He began to crawl up the shore further away from the ocean. Other men ran up to him, in shock of seeing a ghastly crew of walking dead seamen sink and be swallowed by the Stygian Deep, came to help the poor and feeble sailor. Horatio, back on his feet, and feeling safe for the first time in weeks, thanked god for his mercy and expressed joy of breaking free of that wicked curse and wretched wife that took away his innocence. Now he is free of that curse, and his nightmare wife and back on to the adventure of gold, and riches beyond imagination.
One after one, by the dark of the moon, the sailors dropped down dead. Two hundred and fifty men, with no life nor groan. With every thump, a lifeless lump, they cursed Horatio with their eye. And Horatio, stricken by grief, and a prisoner of Life, wish he just die. He was tormented by the sight of his shipmates littering the deck of his ship, staring back with their last expression still on their face. Horatio begged for mercy and forgiveness from Life and wish it all away. Then, the curse began to be lifted. The sun rose to the top of the sky and the clouds parted, shining a beacon of hope onto the ship. His crew, began to rise, their lifeless eyes stared into the void as they began to steer the ship towards the north. Two hundred and fifty walking dead men, moved about in synchrony, as if the ship and crew were one.
The ship sailed to a Port in the West Indies and finally, the first time in weeks, Horatio saw the sight of land. He cried with joy, knowing this terrible journey has finally ended. But upon seeing the beautiful island, there was one final punishment for he was not ready for. The ship, stuck in a whirlpool, began to circle to the abyss. Known as The Stygian Deep, the abyss has swallowed ships whole with her crew and all. Horatio, knowing what his fate would be, took a chance and made a dash for the shore. The ship sank and a laugh could be heard. The Stygian Deep is a merciless soul who took joy in swallowing seamen whole. But Horatio broke free, and he was one seaman that wouldn’t end up in the Deep bowels of the Stygian.
To each their own, right? If they're not bothering anyone, then why bother making a fuss about it. I don't know if you're American, but I hate it when I hear someone go on about patriotism and then completely forget the ideals of the this country with regards to Freedom, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

@texasjack and Catbooks,
I didn't know that feature existed. It's a pretty cool move on Jim's part.
Oh yeah, I check email addresses too before I click on a link from one. Like Paypal, noticed a couple emails from paypalemail, which was a red flag that it was not the real paypal and therefore, I wasn't clicking on any link.
Wait, what is this? Is this really a news report posted on MC like a Google news suggestion? I clicked the user CNN and nothing. This. Is. Awesome. Jim opted to post ads as threads, nice marketing move, Jim.
