The Library hasn't gotten this yet but I thought I'd some of you might be intersted since Pyle did so many pirate illustrtions and is partly responsible for the popular image of pirates we have today: (Pyle, Howard) Davis, Paul Preston HOWARD PYLE: HIS LIFE -- HIS WORK Two volumes. New Castle and Wilmington Oak Knoll Press and The Delaware Art Museum 2004 4to. cloth, dust jacket. 906 pages. At the dawn of the 20th century, Howard Pyle was America's most famous and influential illustrator. Through the illustrated pages of Harper's, Scribner's and Century magazines, the American public first became acquainted with the illustrator that they would come to love. Both by exa…

Hi all, There's not much posting but i know there's Barbossa fans out there. There's some groups out there for him already (link to Lost Soul Of Barbossa is on the home page of this one, there is to be no rivality, but i hope, some osrt of "Brotherhood of Barbossa" ), but i really felt i wanted to start one of my own, and it will eventually be a busy group i hope. I say there cannot be enough places to discuss this interesting character (to say the least) :) Addy: http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/Barbo...settings?mode=1

Jim Hill talks about a proposed nighttime-only retheming of Disneyland's "Pirates of the Caribbean." Which is sure NOT to be popular with some theme park fans. Skeleton Crew Jim Hill talks about the new AA figure that's just been approved for installation in WDW's "Pirates of the Caribbean." Cap'n Jack Sparrow sets sail for Florida But people who work with Walt Disney Imagineering do. Which is how JHM first learned about the "Pirates of the Caribbean Water Adventure" park that WDI supposedly has in development. "Dead Men Tell No Tales ..." That last bit, boy are you guys lucky, a POTC themed water attraction park I'd love to see that come to Paris too, if it's to …

But I can't find it. Hubs and I were having dinner the other night in Max and Erma's a burger joint here, and I'm looking at this giant Valencia Orange painting of a Pirate Wench eating oranges, with a island scene and a pirate ship behind her. I'm chuckling since my aunt lived in Valencia, but the company is marked "Orange County, Calif." (where I was born and raised) So I try really hard not to go and pry this huge thing off the wall and drag it home for my living room! If only! So I have to get up and look at the other stuff on the walls, and on the wall, just to the left is a framed photo of a menu from DA DAHH the Pirate Ship Restraunt in Disneyland! Talk about w…

I caught some bits and pieces of Fox's new show, "Johnny Zero." The main character gets a job at Captain Jack's, a pirate-themed restaraunt. His boss (Jack, I presume, spends all of his screen time in full-on pirate garb, right down to a real hook (Johnny asks how he lost his hand, to which Jack replies, "poker game.") They spent a couple of scenes throughout the episode at Captain Jack's, right down to Johnny having to don an octopus costume and hand out booty at a children's pirate party. I don't know that pirates will play much of a roll in future episodes, but thought it worth sharing.

http://www.comics.com/comics/frazz/archive...z-20050109.html That was the one thing that scared me when I first saw the previews for POTC - the director. Other than that, my previewing suggested that it had lots of things to like - pirates, the undead, references to the ride, rousing music, Jonathan Pryce... And that was before I saw Depp's turn as the goofy Captain Jack! Still, Jerry did a fair job of it - but the cartoon is still humorously accurate.

I decided to create a pirate rpg (role playing game online) . More like writing an improve story. Golden Age of Piracy Just something fun. I've no set timeline to it other than back when piracy was most fun around the 16th to the late 18th c. Historical pirates most welcome. Want them the most. But other characters are welcome too, such as your own created character - be they pirate or civilian - & even the fictional ones like Jack Sparrow, Long John Silver, Dread Pirate Roberts, Morgan Adams, One-eyed W…

The wife showed me this one since she has us booked for a three day cruise this summer. A new Pirates in the Caribbean party is taking over the Disney Magic cruise ship, transforming guests aboard into pirates for the evening and treating them to a scrumptious dinner feast and adventurously themed deck party that would make Captain Jack Sparrow proud. This newly themed evening aboard Disney's seven-night cruise vacations to the eastern and western Caribbean brings together the traditional cruise dinner and deck party with a rowdy buccaneer bash combining invigorating entertainment, themed dining experiences and brand new special effects for an evening that's perfect …
