I Got Your Back" I am a small and precious child, my dads been sent to fight... The only place I'll see his face, is in my dreams at night. He will be gone too many days For my young mind to keep track. I may be sad, but I am proud. My daddy's got your back. I am a caring mother. My son has gone to war... My mind is filled with worries that I have never known before Everyday I try to keep my thoughts from turning black. I may be scared, but I am proud. My son has got your back. I am a strong and loving wife, with a husband soon to go. There are times I'm terrified in a way most never know. I bite my lip, and force a smile as I w…

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…

I think I could put this together in time for Ojai..It's a variant on something I used to have in my cube while in tech support: AVAST SIE LOOKENSPEEPERS! Der BiggenBoomen ist nicht fur Gefingerpoken und MittenGrabben. Ist nicht fuer gewerken bei das dumpkopfen. Das rubbernecken Landeslubbers keepen das skurvy-picknen hans in dem pockets muss; relaxen und watchen das BiggenBoomen macht Bangybangen.

Ok, here goes: Here's a toast to the Royalist, A sailing vessel proud, Ne'er a pirate be so joyous, As her cannons thunder loud. The waters of the ocean, Caress her timbers gently, So here's a toast to the Captian and her crew, May the winds fill the sails and carry her indefinatly! RumbaRue **See, I can be a good person!**
