..'Tis been an interestin' weekend indeed!...The tracks are everywhere, needn't go there again, but, after choosing to commit cybersuicide last week, an overwhelming (and heartwarmin', thanks) amount 'o chatter by friends an' management has convinced me to stay up here, posting for the Forum, and just stay outta trouble, in general. Aye've always enjoyed a bit 'o sharin' 'o things nautical, and pyratical.. So, if you want to listen, do by all means. This is what a forum should be... If you care to be disruptive, fine, I'll no longer rise to the bait, We've parlee'd on this an' the Pyrate's hangin'...Lets go about havin' fun, raisin' caine, and bein' pirates in general!...…

Ah well now that my wedding which was Saturday is over.. and the weekend at the SCA event which is was held at is over...and the Monday taken off work to....sleep is over; I'm bbaacckk. Not that anyone knows me from Mother Mary. Must say, it was a hell of a weekend. Okay, now on to the newbie's question...stupid as it may be, I'm curious. :) Movies, media and the like all have pirates talking in the same dialect and accent. My question is, did they really talk like that? Was there actually documentation for pirates of the golden age speaking in the 'pirates dialect'?

Got a website? Pub Directory
by Guest Angus MacVox- 8 replies
- 372 views
1) I want to make a directory of the websites of regular pub-goers only. There are several comprehensive directories, but I think it would be fun to have a directory with this theme. Criteria: 20 or more posts and a filled out profile (profile info will be included in the directory too, to make it more personable). If you want your site in this directory and fit this criteria, please post the link and details in this thread! 2) If you need webhosting, the Pub's own host INSIDER HOSTING thinks our Pyracy Pub is so damn cool they're offering all of ye 10% off their already super low prices. Just use coupon code "Pyracy" ...Insider Hosting is rock solid top notch stuff …

Me fair wenches & I have a performance coming up and we needs some brushin up on our pirate-y lingo. I was thinking of immersion as the only real way to pick it up natural -like. But since going to Tortuga is out of the question, can anyone reccommend a book, movie or the likes for such. I was perhap thinking thar may-be a book from the golden age which may still be available, if not, a fairly resonably authentic movie i could watch o'er & o'er. whatdya think?

I am, well, obscenely well-read. (I'm also well obscenely-read- just finished Fanny Hill, Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure) But my (figurative) pirate literature merit badge is far off. Exceptin' the immortal Treasure Island, what is on the absolute must-read, neccessary to leading a truly pirate lifestyle reading list? I find that pirates are few and far between on my bookshelf. Suggestions? Anything vaguely piratical is encouraged!!!! I need something to read!!! The Libidinous, Literature-Lusting Lass, Saucy Kate

Pyracy Pub Fund

Pyracy Pub is a noncommercial site I do as a hobby. I get a lot of fun out of it, so you don't need to feel any particular obligation. I enjoy running a "virtual pub" and lately I've been promoting one of my other nonprofit projects on here "United Universists" (Check it out if you're a heathen). ...but the bandwidth costs have been going up higher than expected of late, and so I've installed a "donation" button below the logo above, which you can click if and when you're in the mood to donate some coins. It'll just make it a little easier for me and help ensure Pyracy Pub's future growth and success, and prevent me from ever having to install commercial advertising... b…

In 1668 Henry Morgan and a band of pirates numbering around 500 sacked and plundered the town of Portobelo. Prior to getting underway with his fleet of 8 ships Morgan had gained the approval of Port Royal's Governor Moodyford, it took a little grease to ease the skids but he finally argeed. Several days into the trip, off what is now Costa Rica, Morgan told his destination to all of the Captains in his fleet. They, as Moodyford had thought that his plan was a little more of a suicide plan rather than a feasable venture. Just as Morgan had sold Moodyford on the plan he also sold his Captains and finally the crew for the big score. Morgan's advantage, as he saw it, w…
