Life is made up of moments. Some are good, some are bad. Some are joyous, some are terrifying. These are some of the moments in the lives of the Castaways

66. Harpoon Hannah

One sailor struck up the Mermaid Minnie verse, another a rhapsody of Typhoon Tessie.

Everyone went silent when a perfect tenor began the next stanza. "And there was Harpoon Hannah, had a look that made you shudder." It was the smallest sailor there, the birthday boy in fact –not plastered, but definitely tipsy. His singing was still flawless. "Lips like fishhooks and a nose just like a rudder. If I kissed her and held her tenderly…"

Captain Grumby chimed in, "Held her tenderly…"

They finished together. "There ain't no fish in the whole wide world that could ever frighten me!"
