Aloha to you all, I have come back to this island of refuge after one long cruise. The great news is that I am now indepentantly wealthy. The bad news is that I have depentants. LOL. Those of you that remember me come by and I will get you drunk. Those of you that want to know me come by and I will buy you a drink. Till then I will be on the beach in my hammock or at the Pub.

Me mum will be 90 years old March 3 2010. I'm sure she'd appreciate birthday greetings from a gang of brigands, cut-throats, ne'er-do-wells, and general pirates. Oh yes, and me own birthday is April 21.

Mapmakers will often insert a tiny piece of incorrect information in their maps to prevent the illegal reproduction of their work. Called a “copyright trap,” the fake text might be a bogus street name or even the mapmakers’ initials hidden in the corner of a city park "Hey BlackJohn...is this true?" People didn’t always say “hello” when they answered the phone When the first regular phone service was established in 1878, people said “ahoy.” When first published as a serial in Young Folks magazine, Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island was titled The Sea Cook Dog watch is the name given to the 1600-1800 and 1800-2000 watches aboard ship. The 1600-2000 4-hour watch w…

Hello Everyone, or is that Ahoy? Just wanted to introduce myself. Saw my first glimpse of pirate life at the NC Ren Faire in Nov. 09. Please forgive the not so piratey name. With that out of the way, I reside near Burlington, NC and look forward to going to a few pirate fests. I think the next one in my state is Greenville, NC's pirate fest.

Ahoy there! I am writing to beg for some help. "The Long John Silver Trust, is a registered charity in England. The ultimate ambition of the Trust is to bring a statue of LJS to Bristol, England. A city mentioned in Treasure Island, a city that is said to have inspired Robert Louis Stephenson and the city that is said to be the birthplace of Blackbeard (and Woodes Rogers). As well as trying to raise funds, the Trust is also trying to raise public awareness and prove to the local Council there is public support. Initially, we need people to join a Facebook campaign: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/group.php?gid=264802695385 But, we would also be ever so gratefu…

Yup, it's that time again. Things to remember: 1. There is no price limit 2. Be sure and get your gift to your person in a timely manner Every year we have 1 or 2 people who slack off and don't get their gifts in the mail until after Christmas and some have never received anything. This really isn't a good way to be a good pirate, so if you're in money straights, please don't sign up for this. 3. Names will be drawn randomly, if you have participated in the past, I may still have your address, if you have moved, give me your new one - PM me for that. 4. The cut off date for participating is November 25 (the day before Thanksgiving) in order for all who wish to part…

The Brigands welcome One-eyed Max Parrot to the crew of Hellion. Aye, some say he be bird-brained, but we argh hoping that he can show us how to shape up and..... fly right! One-eyed Max is an Amazon Yellow Wing BeeBee parrot ( Brotogeris), now 7-1/2 months old. A true pirate souled parrot, all the broto's are known for their boldness, persistence and being totally fearless. Max lives up to that, often bullying around our Jack Russels. And he is all of 8" long. Likes people too, another Broto trait, seeking peoples touch and company. Right now, he gives a wolf whistle and we are teaching him a bit of Beethoven. And training him to perch on a microphone stand!
