I'm conjuring up ideas on how to best go about harassing some poor Somali fishermen just to boost relevant experience on the resume for this.

But I'm not sure my wife would approve of the career change.

I would worry about how serious they were not. They may not have limits when liquored up. They sound like my sister with a lot of money. The nit whits that would folllow them back to the boat could alone be a full time job.

They are real serious. They are working girls and just want YOUR money. That is the money they are fixing to come into.....

Interesting theory, an elaborate scheme to make money off of trigger happy sailors who resemble Captain Ron. Could be.
