Criminy!

Yer talking Grog. The drink of sailors and pirates since 
the 1740's. 
Just call it that and be done with it!

Fancy name for a working class drink...

There are SO damn many more things I want to try in 
the SCA than I can possibly have time for. 
It's killing me!!!

Upon the hempen tackle ship-boys climbing;
Hear the shrill whistle which doth order give
To sounds confused; behold the threaden sails,
Borne with the invisible and creeping wind,
Draw the huge bottoms through the furrow'd sea,
Breasting the lofty surge: O, do but think
You stand upon the ravage and behold
A city on the inconstant billows dancing;
For so appears this fleet majestical,
Holding due course to Harfleur. 
  - Shakespeare - Henry V, Act III, Prologue
