I have a show to do for a church group on the 22 in Morehead NC and then we are having dinner at the Sanitary Fish Market. If anyone is in the area and wants to come in that evening in garb to hang out feel free. I can't buy your meal or drinks since I'm a youth chapperone this time but I will be in full Blackbeard attire.

But now that it's done I thought I might inform ye of a new exhibit coming to the Cincinnati Museum Center. I'm working the exhibit but I'm not exactly sure of the "official" title yet; but it is the exhibit that Barry Clifford attempted to create twice before in Florida. Why we got it, I don't know. But it is supposed to be fabulous and have many artifacts. (In the case you are wondering the history of the ship, it is the Whydah, a once slaver turned pirate ship when Black Sam Bellamy took her as a prize. As Bellamy made his way back to Cape Cod the Whydah became lodged…

International Scurvy Awareness Day May 2nd, 2009 Many a sailor or pirate had to struggle with the symptoms of scurvy. Sad to say, scurvy still exists. The humble goal of LimeStrong is to wipe out what may possibly be the most easily preventable disease in human history, Scurvy. They hope to achieve this by bringing awareness to the fact that Scurvy still exists in the modern world, even though we have had a documented and cost effective cure for almost 400 years. Plus, it’s a great excuse to have some grog (rum punch with lime juice), or margaritas, with yer shipmates in the name of a good cause. Visit the website for some great ideas to promote the awareness of thi…
