I was looking for the post that described the change of hands/catch up on all that has happened with the pub of the last month(s) but couldn't find it... so if there is one, sticky it... for a while anyway b'cause it was the first thing i looked for (and can't be alone) when the pub got back up and running... That being said.... WOW! I really like the sleek, no-nonsense look of the pub. I like how the forum is broken down into sections, and i LOVE the bio, mail, and pm abilities of the new format! Great JOB!!!!!! GoF

OK, so is this the official introduction thread? Some may know me under another name at R/F.com. Anyways, I've been around. I mean, I've been on the forum a while. I am the literary partner of Captain Mad Jack Wolfe, positively the most fearsome pirate in the Caribbean but a pussycat if you push the right buttons. Nice work, Captain, getting the moderatorship over at the literary section. PG-13 my arse! Oh....and I'm partial to frozen mudslides. With extra whipped cream and a cherry.

I'm sure many, many will disagree, but I gotta say - I'm sort of liking the new look of the Pub as it currently stands. I come here for info, not visual clutter. The old design, hell, I had to scroll half way down just to get past all the ads and the masthead. The basic black top with the "P" - I think - looks pretty sharp. Realistically speaking, I know there will likely be some bells and whistles added to the layout. But I certainly wouldn't complain if a certain level of simplicity was maintained. Just my 2 cents.

A short, stout old salt strides into the pub. On his belt, opposite his cutlass, he wears not a flintlock but a battered (but well-polished) tinwhitle. He strokes his beard and casts a gleaming eye about the room. "Ahoy, me hearties. Seamus the piper at yer service, and it's a very good day I be wishin' ye. "Professional musician by trade, Gentleman o' Fortune by choice, I be. Organist, whistler, piper and more, arrr. "These days, me service be giv'n in th'Hallow'd Halls o' Higher Ed, far from the briny deep, in the mountain and forests o' th' Pacific Nor'west - but to the sea me heart belongs. "Glad to be makin' yer acquaintences, says I."

Today I started crew training for the Kalmar Nykle in Wilmington Delaware. First day was orientation. * Applications and other paperwork was reviewed, we were given our "Crew Training Manuals"and our pet rope, had ID photos taken, assigned to mentors and toured the grounds and buildings and the ship. This is "Bert" My pet rope, along with the manual issued today. Bert will be with me all the time so they told us to name it. Bert seems to be very happy and has not attempted escape. I don't need to keep him on a leash because he is one. * They started with the introductions of the paid staff and the "mentors" and experienced volunteers. * We split at that …

So I eventually got around to making an introduction. I keep on getting too easily distracted here. Anyways, I'm 17 and am currently serving in the British Army as a Tanks Driver and soon to be Gunner. (That is assuming I stick it I may end up transferring into the Rifles to be with my Brother). My love for Pirates admittedly came from watching the Disney Pirates of the Caribbean movies and as you can tell from my username I have a fondness for Captain Avery. Anyways erm...if you'd like more information then feel free to ask =]

So to enjoy the summer I'm spending most of my time on the lake. Since I don't know how to swim I bought a raft that I float in to enjoy the waves, the water, the laziness. My buddy and I go to the lake with our tricorns on, i guess pirate garb on the water is a big hit and makes people smile. So do you have any stories of you on a normal day in your garb out on the water and what were peoples reactions!?
