celticwench Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Patrick, you really should consider giving lessons to others of your gender. so many seem so....what's the word.....uncertain?, no that's not it....unwilling? not it either.....just plain scared in the kitchen. you seem to have tapped into a creative thing here that a lot of men don't seem to want to find or know how to find...or both! my personal pyrate knows how to cook well, but leaves it to me since he works longer hours than me. i, of course, mutiny when i can and either order out or get him before he leaves work to meet me somewhere else for supper. wench may be in my name, that's one wenchly duty i just detest and get out of as often as i can. i can personally attest to the fine culinary skills of one of our pyrates, that would be capt. deke slinger. he's my brother-in-law and is also quite creative when it comes to epicurean creations. carry on. get that bread going.

No I mean not for children..... the first admendment covers that..... If we meet inna bar.... I'd ask you if you were offended by Adult drawings..... if so.. then I would not show my pictures.... If you had no problem with that... sure... here they be.. and I DO NOT show my drawing to children...... (funny asside... I had some women that wanted to see a male anthropolymorphic.... no problem.... did a drawing of a nekid wolf.... guys would see all of my nekid femail drawings... then this one male drawing..... then ask ... are you queer..... No.... just something someone wanted to see.... ( I can draw mostly anything))) gets wierd at times..... I happen to think my half nekid pyrate babes drawings are kinda fun..... may pi** some off... but what the hey........ to each thiere own. (like I typed eairleyer....

Patrick Hand Posted January 27, 2005 Author Share Posted January 27, 2005 I was going to post something different..... but I didn't respond to this one eairler ..... The hardest thing a man can do is send to death that which he loves the most But that is why Lee's Infantry did Pickets charge....... and why they would have turned around and gone back again to try again... even after seeing what happened..... they loved General Lee... honnored and respected him........ General Lee was the best General in American History (Ok there is a lot that can be argued here.... but Lee still was Americas best General..... ) (and outta fairness.... Grant... for deciding to fight a war of attrition... did win the war.....but heck..... "Sir.... lets see if I got this right.... we lose three to five of our men to kill one of thiers... and we win?" (So Grant had the courrage to make that desisission..... (the only way the North could have won..... (and yah.... there are MANY different points of discussion on that ...)) Sorry... going to Civil War arguements .......... (interesting war.... who controlls the American people.... the individual States... or the Federal Government..... (slavery was a minor (keep England from supporting the Confederacy) issue....)) Who knows what I was in a "Past Life" But there are some "bits" that "stir the soul"..... "Scotland Forever" makes me want to run Englishmen through with a claymore.......... "God bless Robert E. Lee" ........ (and getting back on kinda topic) .... there is "just something" about pyracy......... Gotta be th' rum..... but I still say....... "God Bless Robert E. Lee............"

Charity Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 The hardest thing a man can do is send to death that which he loves the most Oh..that makes me think of the movie "White Squall" which i found this week, for only 5 Euro. I bought it and watched it the same evening, and wonderful it is, the ship..the sea, but when they end up in a storm and he tries to get his wife out of the sinking ship..seeing her perfectly alright in a dry cabin (but surrounded by water and the hatch won't open) and has to leave her to sink with the ship to save his own life... My god i'm still a little upset, it was awful and it was a true story too! Poor woman..awful way to go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Handed Jill Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 "Scotland Forever" makes me want to run Englishmen through with a claymore. I be in agreement with ye on that Patrick....I have my father's family tartan on the wall wrapped around my claymore with the family crest! (the only thing holding me back is that the maternal side is VERY English!) As far as piracy "roots" ....My family on my mothers side is Swedish and Norwegian...can you say "Alwilda" (amazonian viking pirate of lore)...hmm wonder where I get it? Here is a random thought/question: From where do we get the term "son of a gun"? Charity, I'm with you on the White Squall thing...I ruminated on that for days.....So sad...

Fancy Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Random thoughts... ok... (by the way, I have a bread machine too and haven't used it for over a year, I just might dig it out soon, now, you've inspired me. Ok, random thoughts... The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. OK, so what's the speed of dark? If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends? Boycott shampoo! Demand the REAL poo! What happens if you get scared half to death twice? I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out. I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder. Someone sent me a postcard picture of the earth. On the back it said, "Wish you were here." "Did you sleep well?" "No, I made a couple of mistakes." What's another word for Thesaurus? If you were going to shoot a mime, would you use a silencer? If you tell a joke in the forest, but nobody laughs, was it a joke? If a man says something in the forest and there's no woman there to hear him, is he still wrong? If you throw a cat out of a car window does it become kitty litter? A man and his money are soon partying. If corn oil comes from corn, where does baby oil come from? Why do they put Braille on the number pads of drive-through bank machines? How did a fool and his money GET together? When you choke a smurf, what color does it turn? Does fuzzy logic tickle? Why do they call it a TV set when you only get one? If Fed Ex and UPS were to merge, would they call the resulting company Fed UP? Why do people who know the least know it the loudest? How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop? How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink? I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it.

Red Handed Jill Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Yar har har!....yer random thots got me rolling.....sneaked home fer lunch today (work is tough today) and neded a laugh....thank ye very muchly! (fuzzy logic makes me laugh....not sure about if it tickles...sorry ...Blonde here.....) Patrick also inspired me... I tried his Hardtack recipe (earlier in the thread) and got out my bread machine, too. Made an awesome italian bread with herbs, garlic and cheese! (Patrick your hint about the sugar may have saved me from tossin' the thing out....loafs were coming out WAY too dense!) Again I ask....were do we get the term Son of a Gun?

Fancy Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Red Handed Jill, so happy to be able to make ye smile :) Son of a gun.... Humm.... seems I read something about that before, no one's sure where it really originates from. But I think one theory has something to do with a lass being impregnated by a gunner of a ship. I'll see if I can find more info. Sayin' originations amuse me. I've looked upon them before. Fancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancy Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 son of a gun... Early warships had very cramped quarters. Sailors slept between the cannons because that was the only space available. They sometimes had female company on board. Some ships actually carried prostitutes. Other times a sailor's wife would be allowed on board so that he would not have to leave the ship, and potentially desert. In any case, many children were conceived between the cannons, or guns. Woman who gave birth on the ships typically also did so between the guns. The male children were thus called "son of a gun". Fancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
