Most people that haven’t read the book probably just assume that all of Gulliver’s adventures take place on the same fateful voyage. This couldn’t be further from the truth. In point of fact, Gulliver becomes a castaway from no less than four different ships. Seriously, at what point do you decide that sailing just isn’t your thing? He keeps returning home to his family, boarding new boats, and getting wrecked all over again.
And sailors say that having a woman on board is bad luck.

At least he gave up after four shipwrecks/abandonments. Sinbad kept going for seven.
Well, keep in mind the ship didn’t always sink. Sometimes the crew just “forgot” to make sure he was on board. 8)
That may tell us a lot about ole Lemuel’s character, huh?
I like Nicholle’s new outfit. ^^ Classy and comfy. I also love how she seems to be taking everything in her stride by this stage.
… The idea of a woman facing the Yahoohs (sp?) is less pleasant, however. o_o;
To be fair, this particular Gulliver *does* seem to be of the female persuasion.
Also, are those all long-bearded versions of… of John Troutman?!?
They’re really not.
Whatever they’re long-bearded versions of, I am currently very happy that they’re long-bearded.
