Joe's cabin
Posted by Lieutenant Commander Joe Milligan (XO) in Joe’s cabin
It had been a couple of days now since Joe had been confined to his cabin because of the thing in his ear. At least he thought that’s how long it had been. He remembered that at some point he had remembered his grandmother’s old saying, “A dollop of whiskey will make you frisky. “Whenever someone had gotten ill.Joe had thought on this. It may have been true. The only problem was no one had ever asked the old girl precisely what a dollop might be. What measuring system did that come from? He had gotten out his last bottle of Irish whiskey. It was only half full. Well, he reasoned. If he didn’t know precisely what a dollop was sure a half bottle with nothing to mix it with might be just about right to be a dollop.
Thus, it was that Joe managed to lose a smidgeon of time. However much that was. And he sat then wondering why no one really taught these measurements? Whatever the answers were to any of these questions he knew that he was growing irritable being cooped up for whatever folksy measurement that might be most precise.
