So..as some o' ye know, Penny was in Reno this weekend...home of wayward slot machines and everything, apparently, that couldn't fit in Las Vegas.... Anyway..no sea as far as the eye can look, unfortunately. However, piracy was to be had at the Evanescence show on Sunday. Knowing my propensity to end up somewhere with poor viewing of concert goodness, I brought my spyglass with me to the show so I could see a little bit better. I caught myself quite a few odd expressions....and a couple of requests to borrow said spyglass by those nearby :) I believe one of my cohorts that was with me got a picture of me with it...I'll have to have her send me a copy. Arr.

As noted in the "Ren-faire Vs. Re-enactment" thread, the idea of an adult-oriented, neither exclusively fantastic or exclusively historical and pirate-specific organization tailored to the expectations of the members of this site has been suggested, and seemed to garner at least some small element of support. The name "The Society for the Unwanted" has been suggested. I think it's grand name. So, I guess this is a thread were we can see who's interested, what we expect, how to organize and then see if the dang thing will even work.

A pirate captain was on the look out for buried treasure. After months of hard sailing, his ship caught site of land, the land to which his treasure map had been leading. He and his first mate disembarked on the island to search out the buried treasure, which was supposed to lie hidden deep within a swamp at the center of the island. Sure enough, at the center of the island was a swamp, and the Captain and his first mate bravely entered the swamp. Soon the swamp began to get deeper, and the pirate's feet, then ankles, and finally entire leg below the knees was covered in swamp. It was at that time that the Captain banged his shin against something hard. He r…

Parrot's oratory stuns scientists By Alex Kirby BBC News Online environment correspondent Feathered prodigy: N'kisi leads the field The finding of a parrot with an almost unparalleled power to communicate with people has brought scientists up short. The bird, a captive African grey called N'kisi, has a vocabulary of 950 words, and shows signs of a sense of humour. He invents his own words and phrases if he is confronted with novel ideas with which his existing repertoire cannot cope - just as a human child would do. N'kisi's remarkable abilities, which are said to include telepathy, feature in the latest BBC Wildlife Magazine. N'kisi is believed to be one o…
