As DonDiego types he can see over his left shoulder high atop a bookcase a peg-leg parrot in a red coat and black tri-cornered hat with a black-powder pistol in his belt and a crooked smile on his face watching DonDiego's every move. On his hat is emblazoned: "TREASURE ISLAND AT THE MIRAGE".
DonDiego was distraught when the pirate-theme at Treasure Island was dropped in favor of, . . . well, . . . what exactly?, . . . sultry vixens on a boat?, . . .at the "TI"? The pirate-theme was perfect for a resort casino, . . . he-man swashbucklers and villainy and intrigue and gold doubloons and treasure and three-masted schooners and stolen money and cutlasses and clay-pots-filled-with-who-knows-what and wenches and tropical islands and, . . . and, . . . and, . . .
All DonDiego has now is memories, . . . and a dusty stuffed macaw with a peg-leg.
Phooey!
Oh! And what about Quark's Bar ? ? ?
teechur and DonDiego held their wedding rehearsal dinner at Quark's. A nubile waitress delivered delectables from around the Universe to our wedding table. And a Ferengi engaged in philosophical discussions with the guests. And DonDiego's soon-to-be brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law ordered drinks, "Warp Core Breaches", as big as their heads. And teechur and DonDiego purchased Bride and Groom badges in the style of Federation Starship Crewmember IDs which they wore at the wedding the next day high atop the Stratosphere.
The most memorable occasion of DonDiego's long life.
Double-Phooey!
