that rapidly decreasing DOW is nothing. yesterday, i received an email from the quito consular with subject line "warden message: piracy concerns off ecuador coast."
that's right, pirates. who even knew those still existed?
the subject line is usually as far as i get on these warden emails, but i figured this one was worth the read. and i was right.
The U.S. Consulate General and U.S. Embassy Ecuador wish to inform American citizens visiting or resident in Ecuador to use extreme caution when sailing near the coast of Ecuador, as there was a recent incident of armed robbery at sea off the coast of Ensenada de Pedernales, Manabi by modern day pirates. Recreational craft, merchant vessels and fishing boats are all at risk of attack by pirates. This incident highlights the continuing danger of maritime travel of the coast of Ecuador.... Before planning a trip at sea, research anti-piracy measures.
oh, ok, good to know. i will be sure and do that, warden. pirates? seriously?

YES!!!!!!! PIRATES!!!! I LOVE PIRATES. Brit, go find them. Go with them. You can be their hot girl who entices all the people they want to rob. It'll be awesome. Do it. I'm excited to have connections with pirates. I really won't have to be afraid of anything if the pirates are on my side.
Did you know that some Somali pirates are attempting buy citibank? It's true. The return of pirates leads me to believe Jesus is coming back very soon...
Britta, I too was reading the news, and shocked to hear that "modern day pirates exist" strange. I feel as if this is only something that happens in movies such as Swiss Family Robinson.
why did you decide you hated your blog and weren't going to update us anymore? i'm pissed.
