any breaking news with the powers that be at the fort ???

Quite good timing Sir,,,,,Darrell Duesing of the Fort e-mailed me today saying that the 40th rendezvous is on for this year....He offered to rope off a special area for the Mercury Cew to camp and then discuss how the crew may participate in other functions. He wants a head count so I e-mailed Quartermaster William this morning for direction.......could you help with some of this also?

This appears like it could be a real good time for a bunch of scallywags. Your thoughts Sir ?

Capt. J...

Ok... Im now thirsty....goin down stairs and havin a Havana club rhum.......Yo Ho !

Thx Sir

I would have never thought i would hear a question like that from a pyrate.......

me rhum never lasts more than a few weeks....it is consumed.........and always if you have any rhum left share it....then you never have to worry bout it gettin bad.

Fair Winds

Yo Ho

Silas

Do you camp at the fort ? Reason I ask is that I would have to be buying the tent $$$$$$$$$ and id hate to be the only pyrate there camping by me onesies.......

Capt. J...

William was planin to make contact with the the Fort officials at the end of the month just to keep abreast of what they are doin.

Do you think the Mercury Crew still can do this this spring ?

Capt. J...

Traditional, drinkin today......Bumboo... with 8 year old Barbancourt........Yo Ho !

Merry Christmas to the Crew of the Mercury and to all pirates where ever you may be! May you be Blessed, your sacks and bottles full !

Capt. J...

then i guess that means William gets hanged......... i'll suggest that !!!!!!!!!!

As I understand it the Fort was initially built and partially inhabited by Caribbean piratesas part of the original group that occupied the FORT. I think it good to expand our neighborhood, educationally, socially, historically, and ecumenically........Sorry..........let us be who we are.....

William, I can contact the French Mariens of FDC, and the Malitia of St. Anne to see if they would like us to participate in any activity with them ?

Capt Bo and Silas........ any other thoughts or directions....?

....Pirate.....

Capt. J...

Good News ! Darrel Duesining, Site Manager at FDC e-mailed me this morning confirming that there will be a 40th Rendezvous in 2010 at the Fort.

He indicated the planning for the event doesnt start till Jan. but he said to get back in contact with him after the first of the year when more info is available.

ey

in my back yard ya know !

Yes, I know. I'm getting overly excited with Mercury stuff of late, but hey...what can I say? I like pirate t-shirts.

That said, I'm taking orders for the Mercury t-shirt. Shirts will be available on men's t-shirts and tanks, as well as women's baby doll t-shirts and tank tops. All shirts are 100% cotton and will feature the Mercury flag on the back and a piratey emblem on the front which reads 'nuntius mortis'...Messenger of Death.

If I can get enough orders prior to PIP, Fayma has agreed to receive a box of shirts at the festival and pass them out to those who order them in the next week. Shirts are $20.00, which includes shipping to anywhere in the US and Canada. Sweatshirts are $27.00, pull-over hoodies are $35.00 and zipper hoodies are $40.00. When ordering sweatshirts and hoodies, please use men's sizes only.

Please send paypal payments to sweet_h2o@excite.com

The Men's t-shirt and Women's Tank top are shown. The final sizing of art might vary a little. This is just an approximation to show the artwork.
