::though thoroughly intrigued, Jack rolls out of the way of this very sexy chick fight...::

OK, now I'm REALLY interested!

Oh, now this be gettin' interesting! :)

Rumba, if ye be needin' a DVD, PM me "yes" or "no". I'll be recording it no matter what.

I'm still plugging away, learning the soprano and alto recorders, and the "travelling sax". The battle goes well. :)

I admit it, I cheated. Years (decades?) ago, I wrote a program for a dear friend with cerebral palsey that would encode and decode Morse code. It worked quite well on an ancient Commodore 64 using Assembly language and a home-built sound card. It kept him in HAM radio years past what anyone thought was possible. :)

A pyrate that no longer wishes to be on the Account? Not much different than a Mafioso (and we all know there's no such thing as the "Mafia") wanting to go "legit". Your surest bet is to lay low, and fade into the obscurity of history. It's been done before, with varying degrees of success. Sticking one's neck out is to invite the gibbett.

A bit less like an emotional piñata than I did earlier in the week. :)

Ah, lovely cable access, with a tweaked out modem and router, and all manner of operating system optimizations. God help me, I'm a geek.

Welcome aboard, Maggie!

Nah... Klingons are really just grumpy KISS fans.

Take 'em off!

You've got me. It's gone from describing an act of mercy to revealing a prank. William S. Burroughs wrote that "language is a virus from Outer Space." Every virus has it's oddball mutation. Perhaps this is one of those cases.

Opinionated, lovely Rumba? I'd have never guessed! I know exactly what you're saying. My toothpaste is made by Dr. Scholl's. :)

This one's not necessarily nautical in nature, but it's interesting. Pulling Your Leg Up until 1780, death by hanging in England was performed by slipping the noose around the condemned's neck and hauling them into the air. The neck was not broken as in modern practice. In order to speed the victim's passing, a friend or loved one would grab the condemned's legs and pull, adding their weight, quickening the strangulation process. It was the last act of compassion that could be given to the dying person.

For all you "Red Green" fans out there, here's a bit I found in a dusty corner of the Internet. Enjoy! The Seven Stages of Parking Stage One - You're a kid. All you have to park is your butt. Stage Two - You're a teenager and you park with a girl who has a good chance of being your future wife. Stage Three - You're married with kids and are parking a mini-van at McDonald's. Stage Four - The kids are grown and working at McDonald's, you've got a sports car and are caught parking with a girl who has no chance of being your future wife. Stage Five - You're parking in the garage for a while, where you're also living. Stage Six - You're old, no car no license no parking spot. Stage Seven - You're parked. Permanently. In your own space. Even has your name over it.

What a stupid git he is! We love you, Rogue Mermaid! You're a beautiful soul, within and without! :)

Guy in Galexy Quest. If you like treck this will make you laugh. If you have watched Treck since you were a child ...it's hoot! Now, now, Silkie... You're hardly that much older than me. 2 years? Right. I still vividly remember staying up to watch Star Trek as a wee lad. Galaxy Quest was a riot, spoofing Star Trek better than any parody I'd ever seen. :)
