-A message from the captain-

Remember, any and all crew members are to remember that goggles are to be worn at all times outdoors. I'm tired of being called a pirate ship because half the crew has half their eyes.


Thank you very much, you've heard the majority vote people: GOGGLES
-The Nurse

My goggles are tinted and when I wear them out-of-doors at night I run into walls and poles and strangers with knives and/or bad dispositions. Must I wear the goggles at all times when out-side?

Dear Blind Crew Member,
No no sweet, you only have to wear goggles when working or around dangerous equipment. And if your eyesight is so bad...come get an eyetest!

I daresay, good lady nurse, it is not that I am blind so much that I am blinded when my tinted goggles block out the little matter of light that manages to reach my eyes through the smog on a dark night. My apologies if I have been unclear as to the predicament previously.

Dear Blindy,
Thank you for clarifying, sorry if my patience ran short with you. If you ever stop by my office I'll be sure and get you a treat

With all this talk of goggles, I'm thinking of opening a discount goggle shop...

Xeigrich's Discounted Goggles, Protective Eyewear and Other Such Optical Articles

Tinted and Non-Tinted, Ultra-Violet Resistant, *Shatter-Proof, and **Guaranteed not to slip off your face while doing barrel rolls in a small personal aircraft!

We'll buy your used goggles for a ***reasonable price!



*Shatter-Proof not guaranteed in cases of extreme blunt or sharp forces such as flying tools or exploding machines.
**Guarantee not guaranteed if user fails to properly tighten straps.
***Reasonableness not guaranteed either and is typically defined as less than 25% of the actual resell value of the item. Yay, capitalism!

A question, if I may. My goggle only covers one eye, so as to have one eye always adjusted for current lighting conditions. Is this a problem?

Dear One-Eye,
Not necessarily. I've known several good steampunk scientists who were brilliant and guarded their one eye better than their life. Just be careful and do what they do-protect the eye most important to you!
P.S. note that protections to both eyes are preferred.

Dear Nurse,


I feel you should inform everyone to -always- be aware of dangers, regardless of your surroundings.

I was in the library a few weeks ago - which one would normally classify as safe - when the ship came into some turbulence. It was most unfortunate that a rather large bookshelf fell upon me while I was reading. I thusly incurred the most disagreeable paper cut.

Remember, folks: Always wear gloves while reading.

how can you get wounded by an almost-knife?... for that matter, what is an almost-knife?

Dear Nurse,
Fine, you were right about the eye. Are you happy now?

An almost-knife is rather blunt. It is similar to the tonfa or the billy-club, but with a distinct handle and narrowed blade. I have a few nasty bruises from them, but no real wounds. They are most often carried by idiotic muggers who don't know to bludgen with them instead of stabbing.

Dear Librarian,
Thank you for the up-date. Would you like me to start a new post on new post on this new safety topic? Remember PM the Nurse if you have a safety topic you want me to start a new topic. And remember that this post is for googles.

I agree about getting lost on the lower decks.
I also believe there is something wrong with the time/space containment field as last time i got lost a door i opened appeared to lead to a prehistoric village.

On the plus side i became their cheif and learnt how to make whiskey out of rocks.
