It's kinda like a cannon is a cannon, until it is on a ship. Then it is a gun.

Erecting problems? Physician heal thyself.

...and the Wench Line, "Hi sailor, new in town?"

Aye. What he says. Huzzah!

Happy Birthday to You, Happy Birthday to You. Happy Bir.... Let's go drink some Rhum. Happy Birthday Matey

She be missin teeth? Can't rightly tell.

Does a haversack count as a period correct doggy bag?

I hope she shaves this time.

Check thrift stores too. I "Lucked Out" and found one at the Goodwill. Saying you want an old Persian rug, cheap, is like saying you want a ten dollar gold piece, cheap. I did buy some new ones (relatively cheap) at the flea market. With a little aging and a couple of good (dusty/muddy) encampments they will look old. I may have to use Mr Hook's idea and add a canvas (painters drop cloth) painted with a compass rose.

That's what happens when you mix "Back to the Future" with reverse osmosis.

I was truly inspired. Some of my most moving moments are on the throne.

Good stuff. I'll have to print it out to replace my other bathroom reading material!

Received Cascabel's "Flintlocks 101" just in time for Christmas. Buxom Anne Marie (B.A.M.) wants a Queen Anne pistol (figures), so she can be a part of the battle at Fort Taylor's Pirate Invasion next year. Guess she'll have to change from B.A.M. to Bam Bam. Previewed the instructional before wrapping it and found it to be a great educational tool. Well done. Thank you Cascabel for the quick delivery in time for Christmas.

Once again, I will be there, capturing souls with my canon. https://picasaweb.google.com/112277086501011510264/2011DrakeSRaid1 https://picasaweb.google.com/112277086501011510264/2011DrakeSRaid2TheEncampment https://picasaweb.google.com/112277086501011510264/2011DrakeSRaid3PeopleAndFood https://picasaweb.google.com/112277086501011510264/2011DrakeSRaid4SwordAndPike https://picasaweb.google.com/112277086501011510264/2011DrakeSRaid5ThePlanAndAWarning https://picasaweb.google.com/112277086501011510264/2011DrakeSRaid6TheRaid Will I get yours?

Last year was our first time. We'll be geared up (for cold weather) this time. Will probably go both days again. Hard to beat those great bargain blankets.

Just updated with 'bout a hundred more photos. https://picasaweb.google.com/112277086501011510264/2011FortTaylorPirateInvasion Thanks for all the compliments. More to follow.

All I can say is... HUZZAH!!!! Fantastic job!

Yes. The "Q" is silent... ...like the "T" in "Fish".

First of many photos. Still working on them. Will update soon. https://picasaweb.google.com/112277086501011510264

The line is marked with tags tied 47 feet 3 inches apart, with each tag having one additional knot. The chip is dropped overboard, and timed with a 28 second timer. The number of knots to go through the counters hands is the number of knots you are going. 47 feet 3 inches is calculated by dividing the earths diameter at the equator (21,600 miles) by 360 (degrees). 1 degree equals 60 miles. 1 minute of longitude at the equator equals 1 nautical mile. 21,600 miles divided by 360 (degrees), divided by 60 (minutes) = 1 mile.

These two?! (Picture stolen from the Pirate Surgeon's Journal FB page) Touché, but they dont look much like Pirate Huntress'...I did see one in a dress and one in a red coat though. I think they're twin sons by different mothers.

I will be taking our coleman stove, various and assorted cooking utensils for it, and a percolator coffee pot. You may share them with us. As far as Anne sharing her brassiere...
