Diosa De Cancion

Day 2 aboard the Legacy..... we set sail in the alate afternoon, after a day of provisioning on the island... as we pulled out of port, we noted a massive British ship headed our way(The Queen Mary 2). Despite the fact that she was many hundred times our size, the Captain pulled up along side her and began broadsides. He fired three times at her, the blast echoing off the other ship was nearly deafening. There was no return fire from the other vessel. We considered this a victory, and there were extra radions of rum and freshly acquired fruit for all aboard. As more rum was consumed, the ship turned into a party atmosphere. There was music all about, dancing and singing. After a few hours of revelry, I found myself called up to the poop beck to admire the sky once again. As I spotted my celestial pal, Orion, a shooting star flew from his shoulder into the north sky. I consider this an omen that the remaning travels will be favorable.

More to come

Greetings all!!!

I am beginning a sail that will be on the same ship that will be used for the summer POTC trip. It's wonderful!!!

My fist impression -

The upper decks are open, airy and last night while it was a wee bit breezy and cool(for the islands at least), the breeze caused the rigging to play a very soothing song as it shifted and clanked in the wind. I can easily see how one could fall into a blissful sleep beaneath the stars, lulled by the sounds of the vessel.

Later today we take part in hoisting the sails and setting out to sea!

Captain sets the bait and the mice take the cheese. Even have those who's plumbing works just fine check in on that one.

Hhm, what new rumor can we create?

Maeven dear, carry on doing your usual fine scribe work. I was mostly dressing down (as opposed to undressing, Sheila, Paisley, Flogger, Merry, Doc, Deadly, Diosa) - thought I'd take the straight line away - the rest of the crewe. They seem to have forgotten how to write. Not surprising knowing my crewe. But I like to keep them on their toes...

Sheila, love, glad you're on the mend. They have adult diapers for that. Not that I know about these things - no really. But I did hear of a really fun drinking game with those things... But that's another story.

-- The Captain

Excuse me??? I have been keeping up to my duties, and introducing new crewe each time a new member comes aboard, as well as explaining how much of a task you are to keep up with.... in just keeping you out of trouble along, I am sure I am far surpassing the workload of the average person.

Watch out for the boys though, they are heartbreakers. 

You don't have to tell me I already know.

Thanks for the greetin!

Maeven

Tis true... the majority of the boys in the crewe are that way... much like you would expect wenches to be... like to toy with the other gender... Even as the Conscience, I can't keep them in line... takes about all I got to keep the Capt outta trouble....

Ahoy all!!!

Yet another introduction to the crewe... ready??

Girls...this one is NOT for you :)

Welcome aboard Maevous O'Connell, who will henceforth be known as Maeven(because the captain tried and tried to spit out the full name, stumbled over the words, cussed a lot...and then decided she should be called Maeven) . She hails from the waters near the Port of Tampa, and is a right tough pirate. I've heard tell that the last ship she was on, she served as First Mate.... One evening while having too much rum the Capt of that ship loaded the cannon's backside with too much power and the recoil was so much that it crushed her legs! The Capt then made the unfortunate mistake of laughing at her agony and injuries. I hear Maeven was so outraged at his response, that crushed legs and all she pulled the captain down by the coat, clocked him in the back of the head with her cutlass, shoved his topside in the barrel of the cannon, powdered it up and lit it off... and Let's just say her former Captain lost his head over the whole deal...

All I have to say is, way to go!!! Never let a man get the best of ya!!!!

Welcome aboard!

ATTENTION CREWE MEMBERS!!

As Senior Executive Wench I have been assigned certain duties. What I need from all of you is your real name, birthday, address, phone numbers. The Captain has e-mailed me some of this but I would like to update and make sure we have all the correct info. Please e-mail or PM me with those. My e-mail is ren_buff@yahoo.com. Thanks!!!

PS We do have two February birthdays approaching. I will keep you posted.

Done. Doc and I are back online again. Will try to post more often. We are making headway towards the warmer sunnier climates slowly. Our target is still for June but could be earlier if everyone up here keeps pi**ing me off. I hate government functionaries. They are a waste of my time and tax payers money. That goes for lawyers too.

Animal

hmm....as I look through my e-mail box I do not see a response to the e-mails I sent you asking for information...obviously someone is not completely caught up with their work.... tsk tsk...

tickets prices for gaspar are posted in the gasparilla 2005 thread.

capt...what do you think about raiding ybor on feb 26th???

FIESTA DAY - Ybor City's Official day of rest and celebration

OHHHHHH WAIT A SECOND......

don't think too much into it....i think theres a jb concert that day!

...doh!....yep! WOOOHOOO

he will be in tampa on feb 26th....i'll raid by myself if i have to!!!

hummmm....presented by clearchannel

they go on sale this weekend!!!

We're already going to do a ticket puchase for JB tampa this weekend. want us to buy for you as well?? Flint and his lady will be coming with us.... and we're making a list of how many tix to get.

Diosa

ok i want a headcount pirates!!! whos with me???

for my fellow crew members...according to the website, tickets are still available.

they are $20 each with $3 s&h/processing

Ok, I know the Capt and I are in.... Flint, his lady friend, and One Eye may also be in... i'll check with them and let you know by later today!

Diosa

did someone say raid????? this friday??????

Yes young lady, were you a good little pirate and keep an eye on our website, you would have seen that... Actually this was a last minute addition. I had found there was a Chamber event over here that had a pyratical theme, and we called to express our displeasure with the premiere pirates in the area not being invited... so in order to save them selves from a raid and possible building burning, they are offering us the best cuts of meat and other nummies.

so sorry capt....been dealing with a sick powder monkey....the powder monkey was also caught red-handed lying bout his homework, classwork, and planner.....

where's that flogger???????

Sorry to hear he's sick. Get used to the homework/classwork lying... that won't stop until... ohh... when he is out of school :)

Diosa

Ooooooo!  That may sway her!  Actually, the whole "sailing ship to Nassau" has her drooling...

Well the add this... Capt Hurricane from Pyrates of the Coast and I will be on the cruise, and we will bring along a cute pirate wedding kit(it's a joke kit, but funny) for you guys, and wedding gifts. How's that for a bribe :)

Here's hoping for lots of pirates to play with on the trip :)

Diosa

Ok, who's willing to share a hammock??

We've a new crewe member. Flint is a wee bit lost... he claims he originally hails from the West Coast, but is now here in Portlando and in need of a ship. He doesn't recall much of how he came to be in these waters... something about a sea shanty singing competition, an off note, the butt of the cutlass to the back of a head, and then he woke up here with quite a headache.

Since he is used to a life on the water, he has been a pretty miserable cuss on land, and has been tossed out of most of the inns in town. It seems most inn's dont appreciate his habit of using his spare time to hone his flintlock skills in their rooms.

Welcome aboard Flint!

Diosa - that would be great, actually, no matter what the character is named. Once I get this puppy published we can do a lot of fun stuff for events that will be mutually benficial.

if there's a part where a really sexy shirtless (but has his coat) pirate gives a certain crew member a backrub, i'd be willing to do that little skit in the bookstore.

*wink wink nudge nudge

hmmm... since I already offered to be the female character in person... and Cinn seems to be ok with that, I guess that means I get the back rub. so nyah!!!

How about Diosa de la Rosa... I think that even means something in spanish, hmm! :)

And Augustus de Muerta . .. I should have name Wrong Way that - part Augustus Gloop from Willy Wonka mixed with death...

-- The Captain

Gee...go with Diosa and I'll dress up and as your heroine and go running around at book signings... and I already have wanted posters :)

This is my coat made from the Simplicity pattern.

See my coat here

Ya know, with crewe members like Black Skot, it's soooo tough to be part of the Pyrates of the Coast.

Is this where I mention I got to help you do th final fittings on the coat??

OK OK OK What I miss...

Out o' the loop fer a while, only thing less dependable than this boat anchor I call a computer is a middle east peace agreement...

Catch up time;

Paisley: Honda..cool. 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan 800 Clasic here

Skot up for auction...so who won?

Diosa has a big chest...errr a new chest..errr ok next

A new Crewe Member..makin me not the newest...still figurin on havin ta clean up monkey droppins though (as the new guy an all)

Gettin closer to me bein outta here and sailin fer home. An I do mean sailin as I be given the opportunity to travel back on a freighter carryin vehicles an such. 40 days in all and should be an adventure.

Oh an Master Animal, not thrilled to hear the weather report back home, hopefully spring will have sprung by the time I gets there.

Glad to hear you are heading back this way!! Do you get to leave earlier by taking the freighter trip back??? and that sounds like a very very cool way to travel - Good Pirate!!! :)

Diosa

LOL!! At the end of the rum tour... "Why's the rum gone?!?"

Actually, being military, my wife and I never had a proper honeymoon... I am desperately trying to convince her to go on this trip, and I almost have her worn down! Who knows, I just might be there!

Good luck!!

We can start coming up with a list of reasons she should go if ya like. How about an at sea pirate re-wedding ceremony... We could do it at a sunset!! It'd be beautiful!

Diosa

Ok...uh....ladies.... (boy am I using that word loosely :) ) let the man breathe.

Cinn.... well let me echo everyone else and just say.... wow....

Sheila... shhhh.... I didn't tell him any of the horible truths about you, so don't spoil it...

and Spry...you will have many many many opportunities to go pirating with the captain and I just keep watching this forum and your e-mail, i'll let ya know (all of you 'out of towners' should be jealous...he's another real portlando-ian and doesn't need airfare to play)

Diosa

On a new crewe business item...

Everybody claim your bunks and hammocks, there are new pirates coming aboard.

I would like to introduce everyone to One Eye Spry. He has been added to the crewe site, and is a local Portlando pirate who was shipless. He and the Capt met up in a bar one night, and The Capt(having a wee bit too much rum punch...and we all know what that does for his sense of reason) challenged Spry to a battle of punny wits.... The battle got underway, but shortly into it the Capt, who was WAAAAYYYY over his ration, collapsed falling over the table, tankard in hand. (never fear, our rum wench was there to grab the tankard and make sure not a drop was spilled) Nevertheless, Spry won the pun war and was promised a place abord our crewe.

Please join me in welcoming him aboard.

Diosa

Good weekend my wonderous crewe! For those of you who are suffering from Pyracy Withdrawl as the Captain and I are, I have a moment for you

Take a look at this, cloese your eyes and remember being out playing with your pirate family.

Missing you bunches!

Diosa

Like, Cha!!!!

maybe we should let the secret out that I'm in an interspecies relationship

well turtles are people too....

I'm confused!

Get used to it, that happens a lot with our crewe.... if you're not regularly confused, someone is not doing thier fair share!

Diosa

Olaf - best of luck on your venture... make lots and lots of $$$

For those of you who were wondering about 'Diosa's new man sized chest' here is a pic, with Sheila in my chest!

and Sheila.... NO woman is bulletproof!! and as for your crush on Crush..... I can understand... he had by far the hardest body I've seen on a guy that can actually hold a decent conversation... and it held the biggest heart. and the california surfer attitude is not bad at all..... He's soooo damn cute! He could turn any woman into a pile of mush when he has that cute little hurt look. Besides, I have never before seen a man who loves green so much!!!!

(now I have everyone confused)

Diosa

Sheila - You Definitely know how to get the bidding going on an auction!!! Dang Skot, you should be flattered at such a bid! I think that may have won ya!

Patrick, Doc, Animal - the 'Chest' in mention by Sheila is a new acquire Diosa's New Treasure Chest Frankly this picture does not do it justice... I have another one with Sheila crouching inside the box that i'll have to post later....

I think the Capt should take Bilge duty...after all, I have to share quarters with him when he is contributing to the bilge.... I should not have to clean it up too....

Diosa
