Captain Cur's Crew

Captain Cur rounded the bend and gave a snarl. His first mate growled at his cook, Hog Carl. Fox spy kept his eyes straight ahead to the coast. There was a squeak from Squirrel, who annoyed him the most. Captain Cur was annoyed by this motley crew. But he inherited them from his Daddy, so what could he do? The Fox had great eyes, at least and Hog Carl could cook. Squirrel could be thrown under the water if Cur needed a look. They were pirates on a hunt for treasure, looking near and far. Singing shanty town songs with a laugh and a hardy har har. Thanks Daddy Cur said, making me captain of this motley crew. Straight ahead was an island with lapis that shined up blue.

This crew sounds like it's ripe for a mutiny!
