Mission! HI!! Fop is coming, complete with WHITE shoes!!

Arriving in Miami on Monday. Driving to KW. In a a hotel for a few days.

Derrik is my Facebook log-in. Me and Zynga had a "disagreement" regarding the rules of Mafia Wars. I had to create another character. ;-)

So .. I went and did it.... Flying to Miami on Nov 28. Driving to KW. Hope to be there for various PIP stuff and all of FTPI. I could use a place to sleep. No one seems to know what happened to my inflatable mattress. Got to find a way to travel lighter!

And the crowd goes wild....

Call me a canting mugger, but have I'll went and procure lodging for the March coming. Now, my pretty lads, d'ye be joinin' me or d'ye have me make ye food for the fishes - which?

Poppycock, I say! Poppycock! ;-)

32 waist ... jesus....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA .... Utah is known for its ... uhm .... PIRATES! Yeah! That's it!

Strap cutting tool could be useful, Bo. Tks for the offer.

oh .. forgot to ask .. will there be leather workers/vendors there? Got a few gorgeous belt buckles (cast by someone on here .. can't remember his name) that need leatherin'.

Seems to me William said there was a cobbler there once...

I fly outta here in 10 days! Won't be long now! Can't wait!!!! And THIS time, my custom made, Cap't-Jack-made hat will be with me! Sure is gonna look funny wearing that on the plane....

How close is the fort to the Mississippi River?

A pot to piss in.... Lady luck has not been kind of late....

Welcome aboard!

Now! Start savin' yer pennies fer the crazy pirate fest in Key West right after Thanksgiving. Two concurrent events (don't ask) called Pirates in Paradise and Fort Taylor Pirate Invasion! T'was (they were) my first event(s) - flown to from Montreal... and what a blast!

Garden of Eden ... top floor (right there on the main drag)

I'll take one of each!

Why do pirates like buckles so much?

Jas. Is that really your pic or is that Charleton Heston??

Beowoulf -

Stop it man.... It's bloody undignified to drool.

Gibbet -

The castings cool yet, huh, huh?

Jas. Hook

Must buy! Must buy!!

I wrote to Loyalist Arms about their shoes. They say they wait til they have enough orders and then send them off to their european cobbler. I am ready to order some - shoes and boots. Maybe if enough of us get together, the cobbler order could go out soon

Are we allowed to wear cleats for the Tug Of War, if they are period correct?

Does anyone know if I am going?

Also, if anyone wants to help present my displays of weapons and navigational equipment instead of bringing their own, that would also be appreciated.

I can be Vanna White....

Well, then Dorian, that cans it. I have twisted in every imaginable way to circumvent the stupid Canadian registration requirements. It just ain't gonna happen, is it.

Have I mentioned lately how much I despise living in Canada? The things you do for love....

As you may know, the wise ones of Canada have ruled that ONLY real, honest-to-goodness antique pre-1898 firearms may be owned without a maze of registrations and ownership rules. (e.g. You may only transport registered weapons to one pre-designated spot. If you want to take it someplace else, you need to apply to do that - each time. God Bless America!)

Anyway, I have found this one-eyed, battle-scarred, junkyard dog for sale. .58 cal. 8" barrel Iron trim walnut.

Caveat: The small flat faced lock will not hold the full cock position "currently"

Price: Just over $400. What say ye?

Damn! I must own one! (or two!) ... now how to do that.....
