Thomas's Story
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale
A tale of a fateful trip
That started from this tropic port
Aboard this tiny ship
The mate was a mighty sailing man
The skipper brave and sure
Five passengers set sail that day
For a three hour tour, a three hour tour
The weather started getting rough
The tiny ship was tossed
If not for the courage of the fearless crew
The Minnow would be lost, the Minnow would be lost
The ship set ground on the shore
Of this uncharted desert isle
With Gilligan, the Skipper too
The millionaire and his wife
The movie star
The Professor and Mary Ann
Here on Gilligan's Isle
The moral of the story...
1. NEVER Take a Three Hour Tour. Two or four, maybe...
2. NEVER share quarters with an old Navy Buddy... never. ...just don'...Expand for more
t... (See no. 3)
3. NEVER let an opportunity with two hot stranded chicks pass by... (lol)
4. ALWAYS consider Cream Pie as essential ...in all major food groups (coconut, banana, etc.).... and (See no. 3). You know what I mean.
5. ALWAYS carry plenty of cash even if there are no gift shops available.
6. ALWAYS consider taking Bamboo Construction 101 before any Ocean-bound cruise...
7. ALWAYS check the weather reports before any excursion...
8. ALWAYS Plan Ahead for every contingency. (See no. 3)
9. ALWAYS remember every method to recharge radio batteries and build generators from coconut shells... but don't worry about building life rafts. (See no. 3)
PS. The right answer to the Mary Ann or Ginger question is... both.
