Black Hearted Pearl

Arrrrgh! Get yer own thread, you pirate! Just blowing your cannon out. How's the business going, Royaliste?

all great suggestions; I will let you all know how the party pans out.

Female Character - Contessa Victoria de Santiago aka Connie the Cutter. Male Villain - Lord George William Devor My two dubloons...

Let me preface by saying I have no experience with blackpowder..... Correct me if I am wrong, but the linstock is "smoldering" and not a flame. Therefore, tucking a lit linstock into a strap tied around your boot would be the most effective means of "carrying" a lit linstock. As long as the person remembered it was there and didn't let time run out of linstock. You might have up to an hour with a lit linstock tucked in your boot. Of course, this is all speculation on my part and I am probably totally out on a plank with this idea.

Ahoy scallywags, I be havin a Natal Celebration for me mini-pirate who turns 11. I be needin some distraction for the group and am looking for "kiddie" friendly movies to be playing on the picture box while awaint all to arrive. The ages being from 3-12, so the popular POTC is out of the question. So, let's here yer suggestion. The celebration is Saturday, so obscure titles, although interesting, not be available. Blackheartedly,

Cast off for adventure aboard the 118' schooner, Spirit of Dana Point. Experience "pyrates" and sailors during the Golden Age of Sail. Enjoy a fun-filled cruise with historical characters who will take you back into their time! $36/adult and $19/child(4-12yrs). Ocean Institute, 949-496-2274.

Fifteen men on Pearl's chest, Yo ho ho and give me more rum.

Yep....I must be a pirate. :)

I have a friend who sails a Bucanneer 18 who would love this.

Tis not a manequin, but an animatronic! Ye be a smart one, Pyrate DurtyLil as ye be the first to recognize "the red-head". Do ye think Eisner minds that I pirated it?

Rumors, Rumors, Rumors. Everything's a rumor until it makes it past the editor and even then.... That's Follywood...oops, I mean Hollywood.

I knows you will make it fit ye beautifully. Can't wait to see pics of it. Get to clicking on that digital.

DurtyLillie, where have ye been? Fine Plunder there me mate RumbaRue. Let's me know when you're feeling light in the purse...I's might take it off your hands for ye.

Shall I say it? I love the movie "Fiddler on the Roof", Gwen Stefani and Pirates....but this? Not so sure about. Oh, I know what's wrong. I don't like hip hop.

So did you have a cabana massage on Castaway Cay? If you did, wasn't it Yummy?

Tis true, take a hurricane anyday over the possibility of a tsunami.

So when you leaving, Paisley?

Tis a shame. It be a grand time. Plunder to be had a plenty.

Brag Brag Brag, you scruvy dog.

I'd be thinking of you whilst I be racing here in Arizona, but alas the lake as turned into a river and there shall be no racing this New Year's Day. Salt River Flows

Well of that, I have little doubt. Yet when ye looks like me dressed as a pirate, the problem is clearly apparent.

Alright pirates, I have been practicing with my new Dread Pirate Game. First night, me middle son was winner by gaining on all the jewels. However by the second night, I had sunk everyone's ship. I'm ready to take on you scruvy dogs.

Okay pirates, play by the guidelines or I shall be forced to bury the thread in POTC rumors. That one is a pretty long thread already and you will soon get as lost in the rumors as a brig in the fog of Isle de la Muerta.

There's a bit of peter pan in the shows, but other than some excursions on shore, the POTC night on the Cruise is all you'll get out of Disney. We were hoping to see the "pirate" ship out of Grand Cayman, but Hurricane Ivan hit right before our trip. Bloody Hurricanes. My favorite excursions on Castaway Cay are the outdoor cabana massages on serenity beach. They have to be booked through the spa on the ship and do it the first day. They fill up last. I just love being naked on the sand while a cute is rubbing my entire body. (Oops, Did I say that out loud?) Book the first ones in the morning. Then they aren't rubbing sand with the lotion and you don't have to worry about getting there in time for the massage. The second excursion I would recommend, but haven't ever done, is to rent the Hobie Cats for a little sailing. Bon Voyage.
