Swab the Poop Deck, Me Matey

You can count on a name like "Poop Deck" to bring about snickers in a pre-school crowd.  They just can't resist such an overt reference to bodily function.  If you have pre-schoolers at home, please, for your own sanity, do not read the title of this post to them.  You will never hear the end of it.

I know, I know.  A "Poop Deck" is a part of a ship, not a home.  Wikipedia says it's a deck that constitutes the roof of a cabin built in the aft (rear) part of the superstructure of a ship. 

But like a pre-schooler, I also find the humor irresistible.

After all, the term comes from the French "la poupe," and which parent among us hasn't been tempted to speak French when changing a diaper?  

Le bebe' has put la poupe in le diapier.  Le Pew!

There can be only one area of the house that could constitute a poop deck.  I'm speaking, of course, of the bathroom floor.  And while I regularly mop my kitchen floor, my bathroom floor gets minimal attention. A quick sweep and a wipe around the toilet and I consider it done.

But Avast Ye! Today's Small Thing is to swab the poop deck at your house.  I love my Swiffer disposable pads for just such a nasty job.  Swab and throw, is my method of choice, especially for bathrooms.

For you landlubbers, let's make the booty of points interesting by offering a selection of scores:

Sweep one poop deck floor: 30 points
Damp mop the poop deck floor: 30 points
AND
Sweep an additional deck (any floor you choose): 30 points
Damp mop the additional deck: 30 points

Aye, yer plunder of points could top 120 today!  Better shove off and start swabbing, because an offer like this doesn't come around often!
