Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?"

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

Ha ha ha! That's great!

Mission: Mercury Barber-Surgeon, Chief Bottle Opener and Jedi Knight. B)

The Mercury - you'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

"The time was when ships passing one another at sea backed their topsails and had a 'gam,' and on parting fired guns; but those good old days have gone. People have hardly time nowadays to speak even on the broad ocean, where news is news, and as for a salute of guns, they cannot afford the powder. There are no poetry-enshrined freighters on the sea now; it is a prosy life when we have no time to bid one another good morning."

- Capt. Joshua Slocum

ahoy mates... me and my old man had planned to go to Put in Bay this year, but his class reunion is the same weekend. so I was wondering, if this is going to be as big an event and as good a one as it was last year? We're looking for a BIG exciting pirate fest to go to.

Let every man Know freedom, Kings be damned,

And let the Devil sort out the mess afterwards.

The May event has generally been the more successful Santa Maria event (We had over 50 pirates there last May, and just shy of 40 the previous May), while the September edition has struggled the last couple of years (with participant attendance below 20).... That said, the more that come, the bigger it will be! The September Santa Maria will also be the last opportunity to attend one of these for a year or two while the river undergoes rerouting and some changes (basically the ship will be closed for the 2014 season, and likely reopened at some point for the 2015 season).

unfortunatly, I can't make the ,may one, due to the time it will take to save money for expenses and sueveneirs. (i calculated, and projected it at nearly 19 weeks...or more) we plan to attend the Redbeard Feast in New York... it looked decent from the website. next year i will be aiming for Put in Bay
