This is just too good: Pirates illegally join Kinderparade in Holland It seems a bunch of teenagers, members of the "American Pirate Association", dressed up as pirates and crashed a parade earlier this month. I did some digging for other stories on this, and it gets even better. It seems they were pulled from the parade by the police and fined $100 apiece for entering the parade without a permit. To pay it off they held a carwash, making enough to pay their fines with cash to spare. So they used the excess to buy a brick for the new, underconstruction police precinct - which will be etched with their name, "The American Pirate Association" for all time! Now THAT i…

The Call Maritime echoes, cry of bird Phantom voices we once heard Cries of pleasure in the rain Hear the haunting old refrain. Hundred fathoms deep each day Search for the immortal way Spirit lost, and yet I seek Soul is strong, yet body weak. Visions dance and bid me join Precious moments I purloin Dance is over, day is done One left standing…only one. Ship goes nowhere, darkness cloaks Reveal all the cosmic jokes Act in sin and pay the price Find God in a grain of rice. Small yet powerful Nothing yet all I have no choice but to Answer the call.

I have never been aboard a tall ship. Are there any pictures of interior lay outs ? I always wondered where the crew slept.and..where the Captain hung his hat...The old films showed bunks, and hammocks...sacks of grain...tankards flappin back and forth as the ship lurched during storms. There was always a man in a striped shirt smoking a clay pipe...saying "I seen worse ! 'taint nothin' ta worry about I tell ye !" (crash...splash) Are there websites depicting life below deck on the old ships ? When the tall ships appear at shows, how much access is allowed to the public ? I always wanted to peek from a porthole....and say "Ahoy Mateys ! " (but not in polyester short…
