...coming from a discussion I had with somebody who wanted to join my site and gave up. And she said she was a reenactor too (not sure if in present or only in the past). But my question is ...general: It is a matter of fact already, ie of general knowledge, that women pirates or sailors had been few in history. The most of them were disguised as boys, and sooner or later discovered (see Lovely Polly's ballad, "The handsome cabin boy", "The ballad of Willie Taylor", etc.). But even so they weren't many. How then are so many women sailors reenactors? Because they want to keep historical accuracy, usually... And how then I get so many requests for female pirates for my R…

ahoy pirate family, we learned today that "Taz" crutchfield from the shadowplayers passed away yesterday. We were fortunate to spend most of the summer working the mid-atlantic festivals with him and the rest of the shadowplayers. A true showman and gentleman- god speed friend.

It is with a heavy heart that I must post this. Taz Crutchfield, known to may of you as Capt Remy of the Shadow Players Combat Group passed away last night. He was a great man and loved by many of us in the pirate community. He will be missed but at least now he is no longer in pain. I wish I had more to say but I just found out myself. Please feel free to contact me and also if you have a story you would like to have shared at the memorial service please email me at csuttle3@gmail.com

Just a quick update on Poppa... He has made it through his surgery, and is resting comfortably. Looks like at least a week in the hospital. Stay tuned for further updates, but for now he is stable and reasonably comfortable. Many thanks for the outpouring of love from our pyrate family. Love to all, Momma

::: dusts self off; removes seaweed; coughs::: Well, pubmates. I have finally returned. Though I have hovered upon a couple other computers, their firewalls never allowed me to visit here. So entirely sad. MANY sites I frequented that I was not allowed to go to. One can only handle so much of Facebook, checking email, and the occasional Deviantart. IF allowed. Often not allowed. Nor not the time. So, now m' computer has returned to me. I'm at full swing now, back up and running and able to visit the Pub once again! Huzzah! I swears... I need to take cannons to computer Viruses! Th' bloody this was a VERY nasty one. Wiped it out, only able to save a few things. But n…

Greetings to all ye bandits, brigands, buccaneers, and pirates says I... ok, so I'm a day late and piece of eight short for talk like a pirate day, but that's alright. I stumbled in here last night and after looking around a bit I think this place will help me with some attire I've been thinking of working on and keeping it historical ta boot... I've been a pirate at heart since forever. I have a fondness for swords of all types, but the pirates cutlass is my favorite. I also find black powder weapons fascinating and own a kentucky pistol... so yeah, pirates, arrgh!... Hail and Skal and sloshes my drink around... McKegg the Freebooter

(THUMP!) Well, that'll teach me to keep me feet on the footrope and stop skylarkin' about in the tops! I was aboard here about six years ago but lost the url in a crash (well, it sounds as good as aught else then!) and just now ran across a post by Mr. Cyphers on the serving mallet which brought me back here, so ye can blame HIM for the ripped mainsail! (I'll fix it next watch, Cap.n.) Nice series of posts on the subject by the way! Now, you'll pardon me while I go below and sling a hammock and see what the Grub Killer has for us to die from tonite.

In the past we've waited until November to get the gift exchange rolling. In the past this time frame has often been too short to properly keep overseas folks in the time frame of the Holiday Season. So, I'm doing a little survey to gauge the Pub's interest in participating in a Gift Exchange again this year. If there is enough interest, I'll start putting together the information and we'll get things rolling a bit earlier this year.
