I don't think I've yet seen it mentioned on this forum, so I thought I should bring everyone's attention to Puzzle Pirates - a new online game in its final stages of beta testing. You get to create a character and basically do whatever you want with'm - go pilligin, join a crew (crews are made up of real people, and work as a team to attack other vessels), own a shop, or just accumulate wealth to buy newer, fancier clothes. Now this game is both a lot of fun and strangely adorable. The pirates bring to mind the old playmobil pirates, and whether you're fighting, sailing, or bilging, it's all done through extremely clever puzzles. This game isn't even remotely designed fo…

I was watching the DVD of the muppets with John Cleese as the special guest star and they do a pirate skit. Extremely Funny. If you get a chance, it's a great DVD of some of the old Muppet shows. 'Pirates don't use intercoms....might be sissy' Deadly Aim Key West Pirate

Yup! I'm sure some of you have seen it.. or heard by now... not sure if someone mentioned this before. If so, my apologies. But.. I heard about it a couple days ago... I thought it a hoax. But heard about it on the Country music radio station here in Cedar Rapids,IA (KHAK)... & I nearly couldn't believe it! "Girls Lie Too" by Terri Clark is what he is in. alas, I am unable to see it... which bums me out. But I hear it's one hell of a music video. I love country music... & I love that song by Terri Clark anyway... but to hear Johnny Depp is in the music video as Jack Sparrow.. that's just tops! Enjoy all! & enjoy double for me since I have no way…

I'm a nerd. I play games. Look at my website, its about games. I bought Battlefield 1942 around christmas time. its a really good game, many different types of play, some nerds make mods for it, like BF Pirates. it takes a World War 2 game and sets it back to pirate times, with big pirate ships, swords, muskets... and a pistol theres a handfull of different guns, and cannons, ( the only difference between Axis and Allied is the color of the uniform... weird...) i suggest you folks with the game check it out.

This new adventure is worth mentioning, mates! I greatly enjoyed it... & thought it was well redeeming from the previous flop story. Let's just say.. pick it up, grab it, plunder it, do anything you must to get your hands on this particular one.... being in 3 chapters... has a rather wicked surprise in it that all pirates will enjoy! I won't give out the story or anything. Cause you all HAVE to get this adventure! It's fantastic & worthy to call Pirates of the Caribbean!

It may be cheesy at the end but I love this movie. It has modern day pirates in it and it is a very good sea going adeventure for families. It also shows what can happen when you hire a makeshift Captain without a license who looks like a caribbean pirate (Kurt Russel) and doesn't know how to read charts. Too funny. I love that bit about the Pirates of the Caribbean. Gabrielle

Avast, me buckos! Me theatre company is opening an adaptation of George MacDonald Fraser's grand and epic novel The Pyrates on Sunday, June 27, 2004, at the Chopin Theatre in Chicago, IL. Here's the webpage for the show, with all the particulars, if ye be wishin' to attend. I'm quite excited about this show--I'm the co-adaptor, and I'm playing the role of Happy Dan Pew in the show. Its a project I've been tryin' to get off the ground for a number of years now, and it warms me black and vile heart to see it come to fruition at last, with Mr. Fraser's blessin' and be damned! To boot, the whole mess has led me to such fine dark corners of the web as this here board. Al…

I've found some very good, interesting books the last weeks, one Dutch one, republished but originally written in the very time the pirates were in their high peak, and by someone who witnessed some of the "action". The other's i've got now are; Life among the pirates by David Cordingly. Pirates, also by David Cordingly. A dutch childrens book, but fantastic, very good accurate info and great artwork called "My first book about pirates". But, wich is really interesting, a Pirate encyclopedia! It's called Pirates! a-z encyclopedia by Jan Rogozinsky. It's a great book, lots of great info, and ofcourse all the well known and less known Pirates and all to do with the t…

I just finished reading "Mistress of the Seas" by John Carlova. (Truth be told, I bought it for Red Bess off'n ebay, and I started reading it before she got home from work, and I couldna put it down.) It's a rollicking good read, but it can't decide if it's fiction or non-fiction. The author gives every indication that he considered it to be non-fiction, but most of the details are made up from whole cloth. There are conversations that could not have been documented, and relationships that hold no basis in reality. Example: Anne Bonny tried, unsuccessfully, to spring Stede Bonnet from the hoosegow in Charleston. Yes, she probably bedded him, but a jailbreak? First…
