onus-one-eye

Well shot. we all had a great time. Nathanael has been running around yelling ARRRRR all day.

And thanks to Captn Jack I have a lovely new sea service pistol.

Thank you and God bless.

Sorry it took me so long to reply Carl, we had a fire at the house while on vacation. White cotton frogs sound great.

I'd also like to know if you would happen to have a shirt i could borrow for fort. It seems the cleanup crew bagged

mine up before I got to it.

Ihave my trruck available for hauling.

That would be greatly appreciated. I went to a local antique mall and the only sword / dagger from the area had a 900$ price tag, it did however look worth it.

Thanks, i owe it all to Lady Constance and my wife, I am hoping I can find a dagger at fort De Chartre. I am probablu going to go with frog closures on the front.

Cont me in ...... plus 3 .

Here's what we have so far. It needs some finishing touches but its looking great.

One where you can see the salwars.

Thanks, the hole where your foot goes through is tight. what im looking for is a way to control the legs and crotch wich balloons out.. The waist uses a drawstring and the foot hole uses a button or drawstring.

Lady Constance and I have been tossing around the idea of making me a "Non european" outfit.

So we did some research and decided to take some ideas from the Ottoman Empire.

Last night we made a pair of Salwars. Now here comes the kicker, they are HUGE.

When I say huge I mean i could house a family of 4 in them. I was wondering if anyone knows if

they tucked the extra in or rolled them in the waist, otherwise im going to be tripping on my pants.

I will try and post some pictures later .

I had a 1984 Buick LeSabre I called demon. I swear it was possessed. 

"I fear we have no vanilla."  -was it from the roman Polanskis  Pirates   

Go to the craft store and get a styro foam ball about the size of your head. Put it  inside you can cut it in half take a strip of cloth around the outside and place it on a plate wet down the hat steam or a spray bottle will work and wait to dry.  Just an idea

heres one for beer bread

3 cups self-rising flour

2 tbsp sugar

1 11- or 12-ounce can or bottle of beer (any kind)

Combine all of the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and add the beer. Mix together for a bit

Toss the dough into the Dutch oven

Dutch oven should be around around 350 degrees

bake for about an hour and serve hot

also one that usually goes over real well

these are not meant to be exact measurments but it gives a good general idea

Gumbo:

1/2 cups Medium Dark Roux,

1 diced onion

1 cup diced celery (about 4-5 stalks)

1 diced green bell pepper

1-2 finely chopped garlic cloves

2 quarts stock chicken or shrimp

1 pound sausage

2 bay leaves

salt and pepper

2 pounds medium shrimp, peeled

1/2 pound lump crab meat, (optional)

1/3 cup green onion tops, chopped

1/2 cup coarsely chopped parsley leaves

2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme leaves

1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaves

1/2 cup file powder, or to taste

brown onions, garlic, and celery set to the side

take 2 tbs oil and 1 tbs flour and make a roux if it turns the least bit black start over

add stock and vegtables together and boil for about 30 min

in another pan i usually brown the sausage and throw it in after the 30 min is up

add salt and pepper to taste

add spices except for the file

simmer for about 2hrs

add the shrimp and crab meat the last 15 min of simmering

use the File to thicken but never bring the gumbo to aboil after file is added

serve over rice with either cornbread or fried bread and you have one heck of a meal

Pirates was my second pirate movie ever

my first one

"See! That's what I said! You always contradict me... I know what I was saying. It was on the history of Astoria and these are the rejects!"

I haven't read all the posts yet but here are two of my favorite.  

"Women! What can you say? Who made 'em? God must have been a fuckin' genius. The hair... They say the hair is everything, you know. Have you ever buried your nose in a mountain of curls... just wanted to go to sleep forever? Or lips... and when they touched, yours were like... that first swallow of wine... after you just crossed the desert. Tits. Hoo-ah! Big ones, little ones, nipples staring right out at ya, like secret searchlights. Mmm. Legs. I don't care if they're Greek columns... or secondhand Steinways. What's between 'em... passport to heaven."

"If I was gonna shoot you, I'd shoot you in the face. Now go"
