For the last couple or three Sundays I be showing up for the Sunday evening live chat but, there doesn't seem to be anyone else around and no conversations to join in with. Granted I be showing up on the late side of 10:30 east coast time... Has the live chat thing been happening and I'm just showing up to late?

As we celebrate this, the birthday of our nation, the thought occurred to me: what better a day for pyrates to celebrate: for do we not prize our FREEDOM above all earthly things? Capt. William

Anyone with any fresh skinny on the event this year at Dana Point? I've emailed at least 3 times since March, Would like to take my ship down this year, but with no replies, it's a tough sell to just head out. The Californian and the Lynx will be up here in S.F. Bay about the same time, last time we engaged the Chieftian, they were going to be around here.Any sailors with hard info? This West Coast is pretty devoid of locations and events for actual ships to cut loose. Gary

We're new to the pirate scene but have been fairly active in the SCA for a few years. Generally speaking, the overall SCA reaction to anything nautical is cool. (I mean that in the sense of "not enthusiastic"). But the great thing about the SCA is the number of activities it has. Hell, you can fight rapier, fight heavy weapons, make garb, brew, cook, make armour, throw axes, shoot bows (at targets and at people: using padded arrows, of course!). There's even a bit o' black powder usage, though the Society tends to be anti-gun: probably has less to do with contemporary anti-gun bias than with a misguided view of period warfare. I'm curious as to how many pirate crews…

Ahoy all...Anyone from the Greater Pittsburgh area that knows of or would like to start a Renaisance or Pirate society here in the 'Burgh. Sure we have the SCA but they are way to up tight and cloistered. You must have to sell your soul to join them. I have written for information several times and have been ignored. I want an open minded group of people who want to share in the spirit of the times. Post here with ideas or contact me by e-mail look Forward to hearing from all of you... DuCouer

In the last few years, it looks like there's been an increase in the popular interest over anything to do with pirates and such: books, computer games, movies, toys, WEBSITES, festivals, etc... What do you think? Captain Sage

Website restored to June 17 etc.

Something weird happened to the database for the forum so I had to restore it, the most recent backup I had was from the 17th, so all posts after that have been erased. Later this summer I'll be upgrading the forum software to the latest version which should prevent that from happening again. In the meantime, if you make a particularly important post, save a copy to a text file on your computer "just in case"

Cap'n, I would like to wish you a very happy birthday. I am certainly pleased that there are more Gemini's out there. It helps to understand where this split personality of mine comes from. You see, there's Teena from Tennessee...and then there's me, Captain Westyn Elizabeth Roberts, who takes over the dull, boring life of Teena when she isn't looking. Anyway, both of us wish you a happy birthday! Here's to your pockets and your rum bottle....may they never be empty! Arrgh! Sincerely, Captain WE Roberts

I was just wondering what circumstances would create the perfect pirate. Needless to say, pirates had countless reasons for hoistin' the black flag, but I'm lookin' more fer th' personality the perfect pirate would have. Personally, I'd have to say that Doc Holliday had a perfect personality. I know, he's a bit dusty fer pyracy, but had he known how to sail, we may well be sayin' his flag were th' best. My reasoning: He started out very bright and held a PhD in dentistry. However, turberculosis got the better of 'im, so he moved out west. There, he began a fine career o' drinkin', gamblin', 'nd gunfightin'. Due to his illness, he had a deathwish that, combined w…

I must say, it's looking SWEET!!!! er... I mean... AAARRRRGGG! I've yet to bump into another living soul when I check in, always just missed somebody - but whoever is doing the design is certainly doing their share of the effort (Angus?) Anyhow - m'hat's off to the designer, the work is appreciated. Now if I could just run into one of you scalliwags at some point, maybe I can make good use of the darn thing :)
