"Fortunately, Unfortunately"

badger · January 2011

Fortunately (?), we found a box of Twinkies (which never go bad) on the top shelf of the pantry.

ruthbru · January 2011

Unfortunately mice had gotten into the Twinkies and only the empty box remained.

badger · January 2011

Fortunately, we spotted some tropical fruit trees and were able to harvest fruit for a meal.

elmcity69 · January 2011

unfortunately, some of the fruit wasn't yet ripe, so upset stomachs were the order of the day!

ruthbru · January 2011

Fortunately a case of Pepto Bismol had floated ashore.

badger · January 2011

Unfortunately, the band of gorillas, who also had tummy-aches from unriped fruit, found the Pepto before we did.

ruthbru · January 2011

Fortunately they were very polite gorillas and shared.

badger · January 2011

Unfortunately, by the time we felt better, night had fallen.

ruthbru · January 2011

Fortunately the gorillas fashioned hammocks for us up in the trees.

ToriGirl · January 2011

Unfortunately, the gorillas decided to not let us use the hammocks.

badger · January 2011

Fortunately, we had watched them and learned, and quickly made our own hammocks.

elmcity69 · February 2011

Unfortunately, the gorillas' snoring kept us awake that night.

badger · February 2011

Fortunately, when dawn broke, we discovered that the rescue party had arrived.

ruthbru · February 2011

Unfortunately our gorilla friends did not want us to leave.

elmcity69 · February 2011

Fortunately, we traded the hammocks and sailor suits for our freedom, and off we sailed!

ruthbru · February 2011

Unfortunately we sailed right into a major hurricane!

badger · February 2011

Fortunately, the rescue crew was on leave from their 'Deadliest Catch' seasonal jobs fishing for crab in the Bering Sea, so were experienced with handling a boat in a major storm.

Estel · February 2011

you all are hilarious! Laughing

Unforunately, as handsome and experienced as the Deadliest catch fishermen were, the boat sprung a leak.

ruthbru · February 2011

Fortunately the deadliest catch men has brought along a dingy. (think whatever you want to about that! Innocent

)

hbcheryl · February 2011

Unfortunately the dinghy sprang a leak

Estel · February 2011

Fortunately the Deadliest Catch fishermen were not caught off guard, they also brought with them in the dinghy a life raft.

ruthbru · February 2011

Unfortunately the seas were so rough that the life raft was being tossed about violently in the storm.

elmcity69 · February 2011

Fortunately, our stomachs were now used to turbulent oceans, so we all felt fine nonetheless.

ruthbru · February 2011

Unfortunately, feeling as fine as we did, we started to get hungry!

Estel · February 2011

Fortunately, the handsome, ever-prepared and seasoned Deadliest Catch crew brought some rations with them in the liferaft.

badger · February 2011

Unfortunately, the rations were MRE's (military term: meals ready to eat).

ruthbru · February 2011

Fortunately, the military has improved its cuisine.

badger · February 2011

Unfortunately, the degree of improvement was from 'awful' to 'slightly less awful'

Estel · February 2011

Fortunately, as awful as the MRE's were, we were now at least no longer hungry.

badger · February 2011

Unfortunately, our life-raft was soon surrounded by circling dorsal fins, possibly sharks.
