Hi you know I was reading a book on the corupt practices of BP and I got thinking how Wallstreet and the Corperations seem to behave like Pirates, There is a bit in the movie Hook were the Grown up Peter is back in England were his kids are telling the Old Lady Wendy what there Dad's Job is and she repiles (So Peter you became a Pirate), If you want to know about Wallstreet's Free Market ways think Nassu under the Pirate rule, LW

With a week of deliciously cool weather and the local ren fair season behind us, I know that it is time to look to the future. And that future contains the Pyracy Pub Secret Gift Exchange. I'm looking for a crew, from far locations, willing to come together for a special mission. This crew will be elite, capable to carrying out the most difficult of tasks...putting things in the post. Sign up now! Those of you who have been around know that participation in this event has waned substantially over the last few years. I would love to see a resurgance this year!

What a great name. skullwench. I wonder what a skull wench would look like? Would she have a skull with long tresses? Like the cursed pirates in POTC? (That would be cool. Or, maybe as Stynky has corrected me in other discussions, it would be hot.) Perhaps she's just a wench with a skull motif? The mind boggles.

Rained out from hunting on this, my 54th trip around the sun. This is the first opportunity I have had to get to the library in several months, so I wanted to send the annual best wishes to all my December Club compatriots, may the next year go as good as can be expected. Bo

It's THAT day, so throw some nautical linger in your conversations, and remember, some phrases are older than you think. For example, if you 'save your bacon' today, that's perfectly acceptable.

I located this post over in Beyond Piracy, posted by Capt. Morgan (April 20, 005) and thought that it would be of help to the new people here. It's a short quiz kind of thing. Try it out, for those who are having a hard time trying to think of a name for themselves. My Pirate Name or if you aren't happy with that one, try this one: Pirate Name Generator

Some of you will recognize my name, some of you may not. If you do recognize me, I am back, but I am cleaner, more "grown up" and hopefully a great deal wiser. I would really like the help of an admin, I need a question answered. Please pm me. ~ Thomas Blackthorne

Ahoy to all! Apologies that I disappeared. One my wander off but they ALWAYS return! My thoughts have been occasionally on the Pyracy Pub for a while but life has a wonderful way of diverting one from places that matter with people who are brilliant. So, hopefully I shall be visiting the Pub more often. Nothin' beats this place. The past few years have been hellish at attending events but with gas down a little lower, I hope I can get back to events, too. I have a LOT of plans & still trying to keep the Resurrection alive but definitely in need of good folks willing and able to partake in events. I've begun learning the viola and am looking for sheet music (…

I may be relocating to southwestern Oklahoma in the very near future. Is there any word of any crews in that area, including the pan-handle of Texas? All the links I've found are WAY old (angelfire & myspace old). Relocating from the mid-Atlantic region, so I think I may actually be marooned.

So ONWARD! TO ADVENTURE! Those of you who have been around know that participation in this event has waned substantially over the last few years. I would love to see a resurgance this year! However, please, before you commit to participating in this event be absolutely sure that you will follow through on the terms as provided below. I'm sure you all can understand how frustrating it is to be the person who is still waiting for their suprise well after the New Year...So don't c…
