Black Hearted Pearl Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 Volunteerin' eh? Any idea how much a gig like that pays??? Lad, volunteering is the english way of saying 'ye work for free', however, depending on the amount of hours ye work, ye can get the gate fee waived. So there's yer pay, if'n you and the coordinator can come to an accord on hours ye give. ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind.

Graydog Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 ...perhaps a trail of broken cookies leading to the gangplank..will do away with yer boogeyman.... DO NOT DO THAT! By going all the way to the gangplank they can be seen from on land. This will attract homeless German children that will go up your gangplank and attempt to eat your ship! Oh, boy, don't even think about trying to stop those little "children" by cooking them in your oven! They'll call you a witch! On the other hand, its not all bad, that's how I met my first wife. Oh, wait! -Greydog Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!

MadL Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Or th' homeless mountain wild man what live under the bridge e'en!!!!! background story: One day while railhead'n (train ride) out t' Baumholder for field maneuvers, our train stopped at th' edge o' a small quaint little German town. Well, Germen children came run'n t' see th' train full o' American soldiers and wave us a "Gutten Tag!". Know'n from other maneuvers how much the children loved our C-Rations, we began toss'n various items t' the kids; John Wayne bars, cans o' what we called "cat food" 'n other such bits-n-nibbles from our lunches. Well, th' children shouted with glee and chased our offer'n with zest they did, t'was quite th' site, almost like feed'n th' monkeys at th' zoo it was. Then, suddenly out'a no where came the scruffiest, dirtiest, hairiest beastie we e'er did see! Why he look'd just like he might be Robinson Caruso he'm self he did! Now this mysterious wild man begun t' scramble for the food we be toss'n t' kids, then he pase back 'n forth beckon' for more he did, why he would practicaly jump on top o' the small children for t' beat them t' a toss'd crumb!! Well, befor we knew it soon some began t' toss their extra socks 'n e'en a t-shirt I saw go out, then they began t' throw cans o' shave'n cream with razors too! Oh what a sight, for t' watch this wild man, what appear t' have come from under a nar-by bridge best we could tell, scramble for his booty then hold it up with a gleam in he's eye while all the while the soldiers did laugh and search frantic for more stuff t' toss..... 'n that lads 'n lasses be me story o' the German Wild Man what lived under the bridge. *but what Mad L does that ha'e t' do with big bears?* asked the wee pirates I don't know, Greydog be th' one what brought it up!!! ~All skill be in vain if an angel pisses down th' barrel o' yer flintlock!
