damn pyrate! she took my original comic drawings of Pyrate vs Pyrate and to top it off she took my silver GOF shoe buckles too!

Anybody got a pair they want to sell?

mP

That is cool! Do you have a 60 month payment book?

The slops, monmouth, tweed jacket and brown wool waistcoast were found in the abandoned apt

The blue vest, coin, ring, guns etc are still out there somewhere.

mP

I can't disclose details, other than the pics and descriptions. Please keep an eye out for them

Thanks!

Phoenix Arizona mate.

But we all know the pirate crowd is mainly west coast and east coast.

Likely to be found in florida or california is my best guess.

trying. hoping for the airlines prices to drop a bit...

I looked and couldn't find it. There was a schedule when it first opened, but now?

put the candlestick in a glass tube and mount the glass tube. You could fill the tube with colored liquid or something....

or any kind of tube with multiple holes drilled in it to show the brass inside.

I seem to remember a documentary of the Dupont company in its infancy. Every several years they were set back because their powder factory blew up.

That was a place of business, not a home. Think carefully.

We saw the Whydah exhibit when it was in Phoenix. The actual artifacts are really awesome, the presentation tended toward the Howard Pyle Pirate culture. But all in all, a worthwhile visit!

mP

just finished Savage Wilderness by Harold Coyle. Now reading John Paul Jones by Evan Thomas

mP

sorry won't be making the trip this year. Have a great event and "Hi" to all the new friends!

mP

Interesting that so many people like Captain Morgan. I rather dismissed it as being too large a distiller to create a rum that can be enjoyed without a mix.

Private Stock is the only one worthy, the rest is mixer from my experience.

mP

If tha lootin be good, Captain Morgan Private Stock. If I've just a few dubloons, Gosling's Black Seal.

Aye, Private Stock be my choice as well. After that, there are a couple of ties, Pyrate and goslings.

Happy Beerthday Eye!

Happy Belated Birthday Mate!

We are considering NorCal as one event in a longer vacation to California. This would be my first event west of the Mississippi.

I had planned to go to this event last year, but somebody conned me into 100 degree heat and 90+ humidity at Ft DeChartres instead. And again almost to Beaufort NC in August.

So what's the weather at NorCal lookin like this year William... Hot and Humid? Please give me advance notice if ye plan on Ft Taylor, I might just take a nice vacation in the Arctic.

BTW - that's about as close to West of the Missisippi as you can get without actually being there (Ft DeChartre I mean).Talk about walkin the thin line...

Anyhoo - hope ye have a blast there, just not in the cards this year. Say hi to the Seven Seas group for me.
