the powers in his DNA.

 

Not many people know his ancestor, Captain James Cook was actually eaten on that beach in Hawaii. 

He was speared because of a dalliance with King Kamehameha's daughter, Princess Iolani.

She bore a son, Prince Kamehamahah, Cappy's Great Grandfather.

The Hawaiians didn't tolerate mixed race with whites, so the Prince was shipped to Cooktown, where he grew up out of sight out of mind. The museum in Cooktown is actually Price Kamehamahah Palace but we don't talk bout that in the south.

 

Cappy heard the big Base Drums beating out side the tent as the customers were introduced to the big XXXXX .....contender on the plank outside.  The blood of the ancient kings started rising in Cappy as he heard the beat; his eyes turned green; he puffed his lips out and pulled his hair up straight; his eyes became bloodshot, and ...............

 

 

Princess Iolani Palace in Honolulu.

Cappy's great grandfather's mother ruled for 71 years, the second longest ruling monarch in the world.

A statue of her father King Kamehameha dressed in gold (the family had Old Money) sits out the front.

It was said the King had beaten 50 warriors in one battle, without getting a scratch.

 

..but alas,,,it would not be  another warrior that would kill the king ,but his love for the big "Captain Cook"  burgers of the time had  done him in,and by the age of 65 his heart had  shut down one night.    ...............  pulled his hair up straight; his eyes became bloodshot, and his craving for burger grew.  Now The local Cooktown grease joint takeaway burgers where not that hot.  [some say they could be used for weapons of mass destruction]but the craving was too strong for Cappy and he found himself ordering.............

.............and only then remembered Loxie's long nose as the fire truck went racing past.

Now there was a problem; Loxie had a deal with the local scrap metal guy, $25 spotters fee and $50 to let a car burn out to save stripping cost, so Loxie would usually arrive and remember they left something back to the station or feign a heart attack. The trick now was to reverse the process and start the pump fast. As he ran towards the pump he cradled his arms and rocked them from side to side.

 

Loxie took the bait; he yelled "There's a baby inside!" and the Wagga Wagga Crew who'd won the Riverina fairy Competitions for the last 40 years sprang into action. A baby would have been blown 40 metres out the other side but the fire was out by the time Cappy puffed up.

Or even a simple 50 dollar car camera from supercheap auto  ,,put it on the dash and the sd card should survive most crashes .

 

And they continuously record from when  the key is turned on in the aircraft  and all conversations and noises would be recorded and should survive a crash.

Sometime wonder IF a cockpit voice recorder is a good idea, may assist for investigations?

Or even just a simple car dash camera that records audio and video and cheap to buy.

He couldn’t worry about that, so being careful not to stall the aircraft he wheeled around and took out a Zero then a dive followed by a zoom up downing the second Zero which had followed him down, then a pushover which brought the last Zero into his sights and a quick squeeze on the trigger and the battle was over.
