I'm going to be away for the next few days - and I didn't want them to pass without wishing you a very happy birthday! We'll have a birthday toast when we're sailing up to Vallejo on Aldebaran!

A lot of people at events carry their secret survivor drink around in various containers disguised as an innocent accouterment to their garb. I had a small metal Celtic flask (sadly it got a puncture hole somehow and became useless) that I put my favorite drink in, Rootbeer Schnaaps. (I'm looking for a new one if someone knows of where the Celtic metal flasks are for sale on-line, let me know!) BTW- If you haven't tried it, do so - really good! So what is your secret potion to carry around with you?

Greetings to all of you here at the Pub! 'Tis me first time here and 'tis a sheer pleasure to buy a round for ye all! I be hailing from the West, recently sojourned from the wild woodlands where years hence my hearth and home 'twas in the northern realms of the Sierra Nevada mountains. My nearest port was Hyde St. Pier where I was known by a different name (I've found 'tis a convenience when the beadles near to adopt a differing monniker). I appeared in divers locations (that's varied and sundry, NOT scuba shops for you swabbies who shun the King's English), armed with original cutlass and piratical vestments. Yes, they truly be original. Since that time, much of my att…

P-} yes, i'm a very lucky pirate indeed. Ok, a little history about myself. I grew up in a very catholic household and went to an all boys catholic high school in D.C. (Gonzaga). One good thing about that is that my teachers were all great thinkers and they taught me how to think for myself. boy did that screw me up... I thought for myself alright... just thought in completely the wrong direction. by the time I hit college I was pretty much stark raving mad. I turn…

Well, one good turn deserves another, since we share the same Birthday, and apparently you will be away celebrating tomorrow. And yes, we will be enjoying our mutual birthday celebration while sailing on Aldebaran come June — how much better could two birthdays get?

I don't often feel the need to write about personal things to a known or unknown public, even the Pub, but if anything that follows might remind us to cherish what we have and be better to everyone about us, then it will have been worth the effort. About ten years ago my sister went to see my Grandma with her husband and children. They were all excited to see her, for they hadn't been to her home in years, due in large part to geography. They walked up to the door with all of the happy expectation one generally feels when seeing a beloved relative they've missed. My sister was extra anxious and happy for the moment, because my dear Grandma would finally get to see g…

Ahoy! I've been gone for a long time as other stuff in life intervened. Some probably remember me, but many others don't/won't. Anyways, I am now the owner of an 2009 Scion xB that I am converting into my pirate sloop. I've has it since June 08 and have over 20,600 miles (as of yesterday). That is ON TOP of the miles I also put on my Miata. Anyways, the xB is now named "Highland Revenge" and is getting turned into a Scottish Pirate sloop. I know, a bit more farb than historical . . . But SO is a pirate themed modern CAR/TRUCK/BOX (or whatever an xB is . . . so, it is just my sloop). I never intended to drop off like I did, blame Blackjohn and Foxe. I was mostly…

I wasn't quite sure where to properly post this, so I put it in the Crow's Nest section. On Tuesday, I was interviewed for a potential article about the pirate entheusiast sub-culture (especially that of the Texas pirate groups). The article was printed on Thursday, and showed up in the Dallas Morning News on Friday (on the *second* page of the front page section!). Not only does it refer to Talk Like a Pirate Day, as well as some comments from Craig Lutke from the Bilge Pumps, but (and I was very pleasantly surprised to find this out) but the first three articles referred to ME and the interview they did with me on the phone. I actually referred to this site during the i…
