Capt. Sterling Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Ah, my dear Captain Sterling. Your witty comebacks have made this more of an entertainment for me to come back with anticipation on some very fine reading and less than a recruiting venture. I could see that in your true identity that your character is a pirate hunter? Very charming. As far as the "voice" in my head? Not my own (or so I think) but, I think it could be the voice from higher powers. I usually can tell the difference. Evil...my own thoughts. Good thoughts....not mine. Miss Lady Barbossa, your message has hit me very clearly and I thank you. Why here? In a public domain? Not scared of really anything that physically exists here on earth. Again, I found this site and really thought having a few Americans would be a great public and political message to my people. Wanna-be-hero? More of a true countryman and I am loved by all who have met or known me. Captain Sterling, you seemed well versed in your history. Didn't pirates "of the golden age" have the grand allure of a modern day "American Rock and Roll" true icon hero pesona? Thank ye, charming indeed. Grand allure of a rock and roll persona... all depends on which side of the fence ye find yerself ... unless ye perfer to straddle it. Been to Canada lately to visit the old folks? So in yer "business ventures" Robin Hood, which voices do you listen to? "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell...

LadyBarbossa Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 The resounding "Oooooooooo" is heard from all here!!! Rock star? What th' devil be that? At th' risk of attempting to sneak us out of the US unnoticed by Homeland Security and untraceable practically, the escape off to the shores of a dangerous land with delusions of grandiuer in our heads in hopes that we won't be shot and killed or captured/arrested and taken to Guantanemo Bay... Have ye any brilliant ideas HOW t' make this a reality, good sir? Unless ye know how t' deal with those satelites up above th' earth and scramble the GPS systems... unless I be guaranteed that I shan't be findin' m'self swingin' from th' gallows or a bullet through m' heart... then this Lady won't be makin' such a venture yet. Unless if be more possible t' just disappear off th' face of th' earth. B'sides, ummm, ye might not be wantin' this Lady's mug followin' ye... or maybe so. Course, my goodness, what would those of the region state for a woman who is not Harem and out and about, mixing with the men, who is not in accordance to Allah? Hmmm? What more then would happen to ye, dear Abdikarim? Reputation lost, to be sure. But then again, I be th' type o' woman who hath no care for a religious "law" be they Hindu, Christian, Catholic, Muslim, etc. Know them an' honor them, but I won't abide by them t' rule this Lady's life. Now, would ye be willin' to allow a woman with such vinegar in her veins to roam free upon thy vessels at the cost of the Warlords havin' yo'r hide? What, pray tell, would be yo'r gain in such? ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!

Rumba Rue Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I understand that this is not spam as I first thought. I received a PM from Mr. Abdikarim Mohamed, informing me that .....well ....I know I shouldn't tell who he really is.......... damn sneaky pirates.........

Graydog Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Ahoy thar Lad! I be havin a crew of 30 stout men that we be willin to be a joinin yer salvage operation. Now, ye not be askin too many questions about my lads and we be not askin non-operational questions about yer self. Now, of course, we be mannin the ship. You can have a couple lads on board, but I captain the ship and me crew be the crew. Lad, let’s get this straight from the git go, me lads don’t go in for running salvage from a yacht. We be lookin to you to be providin and armin a proper salvage vessel. But, I be telling ye upfront if all ye can deliver is that Podunk backwoods armament the deal be off. Heck any abandoned container ship can be ignorin a craft low in the water with mere Ak’s and them thar RPG’s can’t be fer show lad. That whole operation could well be blown out of the water by just one determined patrol craft moutnin a 3 inch gun! We don’t work on margin; we tend to be more of a sure thing crew. We be perferin an air cushion catamaran along the lines of the Thornycroft “Atlantica”. She should be armed with two (2) Mk 19 40mm grenade launchers, (2) .50 cal machineguns, supplied with Sa-7’s, one silk worm mount, 1 each chaff dispenser, 1 each flare dispensers, Mk 15 Phalanx CIWS, and a supply of three (3) Zodiacs with an M-60 MMG for each boat, however, RPK’s are acceptable. It will need a full electronics suite of GPS, Radar, Sonar, SAT downloads, and Jammer, and none of that old Soviet crap, it be US, European, or Chinese. Me lads will be providing all their own personal weapons as it were, so thar ye be, a cost savings up front. Look lad, this kind of lawful salvage operations demands a support network on shore. We be needin to know routes of travel of abandoned vessels, likely locations of individuals that need rescuing, and of course get advance warining when people might come about to protest our lawful operations. Ye don’t be wantin an Internet connection in the middle of a salvage operation, as that will draw these protestors down on ye right quick. So, thar be a needed support network with some directional broadcastin needed. Can ye deliver on those items? Lastly, we need to be discussin some articles lad. We just don’t go on account unless we have signed the articles. While me lads and I do have our own set drawn up, we be expecting a standard of conduct of those we be workin with. It be duly necessary for interoperability doncha know. Now, assuming we can get outfitted, we can now cut to the chase. What about all the salvaged property and saved people? Well, we know ye need to recoup costs. Then again running a salvage operation can get a might dangerous fer me lads as it were. On that thar other hand, we be needin a fence…er..middleman to be a helpin in disposin of the booty…salavage. We be lookin to ye for that. So, all things considered we be willin a 60% fer us and 40% fer you split. To be renegotiated at the end of the first full year. That be the core of the pact, thar still be many a detail over transportation, livin expenses, grog rations, and the like that remain to be worked out. So, be ye interested in me and me crew? -Greydog Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 i had somalia once....bad canned peaches ROTDALMAO ***Sprays tea into my keyboard!*** Come on, ya had ta know this was one of our own playing games. Like a real pirate/mercinary would post an advert here...the equivalent of jumping up and down, yelling, "Here Mister CIA man, here I am. Come and get me...neener, neener." I wonder if he's related to that British pirate hunter who showed up a year or so ago, and was roundly word-thrashed and sent packing? Wish I could remember his name, but he was loads of fun...for a while. Or, maybe he's related to Inigo Montoya? Yeah, that's probably it.

LadyBarbossa Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 ROTDLMAO!!! Well, said, Ransom!!! Neener neeer... So, Master Abdikarim... pray tell, then NOW ye managed t' escape from th' Warlords and the men who self proclaim themselves as the "police" of the vicinity? And pray tell, sir, who be yo'r benifactor in connecting to the World Wide Web. Hmmm... I assure ye, mates, the name is real enough. http://www.news24.com/News24/Africa/News/0...1880859,00.html The issue is, who be this impersonator portraying a man already captured. Now a man who goes by another name... that be a devilish ploy there I be more than willing to raise anchor and set sail with one who uses another to leave himself untraceable. Now, be this vessel ye spoke of... that fine French vessel that was commandeers but a few months back? If so, I'll be eager t' accomodate in releasing that said asset from thy hands. That is... until I gain th' vessels I so truly desire. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!

Blackfoot Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Ha Ha! Greetins' me fellow Pyrates! I am supposin' ye can't trick the trickerys eh? I must apologize fer my "low-profile" character. Just attemptin' to stir the pot a bit....again. I was hopin' to keep this one going fer quite some time. But, the beautiful Miss Rumba Rue whispered into yer ears that I might just be a local. My biggest concern is that the Grand Captain Sterling would quiz me on Somalian language where I would have been stumped. His original quote with the arabic writing made me sweat a bit! Mohamed, odd again, how you quote Jesus Christ, and not the Koran...especially since you truly have your interpretation completely arse backwards. And perchance you should be saying الله أكبر As fer as my leave of absence? I have been around drudging in the shadows and trolling off of the coast. The wee lass hasn't slowed me a bit and just turned one natal tide last month. The Blue Mermaid is also doing fine. She wants to give ye all greetings and promises to visit the pub now and then. So, I have missed ye all very dearly. I see many familiar names have faded from the pub but I also see a few names dear to me heart poppin' up. Capt. Sterling Posted on Jul 29 2008, 01:56 PM That would be Blackfoot and as I recall he wasn't soundly thrashed... he truly held his own and did so wonderfully well.... Aye Captain Sterling. A true Gentleman Sire. Defending a man who has been missing for quite some time. MadL Posted on Jul 29 2008, 08:34 PM Well it certainly Naught be Rum for me cup still be dry! I sail with NO MAN what naught drink with me first! Greetings Mr. MadL. I be yer humble pyrate Captain Blackfoot. Apologies to you sire. Here be my coin purse. A round fer the pub and a bottle fer Mr. Mad L there. By the way, you wouldn't be related to a dear old friend of mine who once frequented this establihment known as "Mad Matt" would ye? Probably not. Ransom Posted on Jul 29 2008, 03:58 PM QUOTE (Capt.

All I can say is, either way, they are braver than I!!!! Yes Sire Mr. Bbcddutchman. Now that name is sure a mouthful of letters! Tis' like chowing down on a big bowl of alphabet soup! Anyhow, I had to do a bit of research before I started with this Mr. Mohamed. In all reality, I have no respect fer these people and despise the authorites for even calling them "pirates." The reality is they are street thugs borrowing a wee size motor boat. I get no intimidation from these people. I would be right along side Captain Sterling on a good morning "sporting venture" target practice.
