You need a vacation. I'll prepare the longboat.

Exotic drinks all around! ARRR!

(claps hands) Pad Thai, a bottle of something and pen and paper for the hand drawn lady. Wow. that's a big bowl of Pad Thai!

(claps hands) Shrimp and Lobster for the lady in the red dress!!

(claps hands) Some seafood curry for the lady in the dark hat!

Drat. All the good pirate festivals are on either coast. I'm so landlocked.

Standards...? Sorry, when I'm pyrating I can only define "standards" as "flags" or "banners". I do consider myself a gentleman scoundrel.

Great. Now I have to go to Philadelphia. Add that to the list.

I imagine that redheads of the high seas get their share of sunburns. Aye. I need a good hat.

How wide are the straps? I need to know so I can begin planning the embellishment once it arrives.

Niiiiiiice. I like it and would gladly sail under it. Aye.

Well, Christine. Today's specials include several Thai recipes. Yumtak. Gai Yaang. Laap Gai. Pad Thai. Steamed seafood curry. And...Laab. Plus a hold over from yesterday for dessert just for Ciaran. With an exotic drink... Arrrrrr...

Today's dessert special is Key Lime Pie. Now I'm hungry. Drat.

Over the years there have been many contributions to this topic, proving that one can create an all original design with a little effort and the help of others. In the interest of making it easier search through the designs posted here, I offer a cross section of designs as a sort of flag registry. I'll keep adding flags to this first post, so that people can see what's out there in the pirate community. I started the topic years ago with my own design I refer to as the 'crossed pistols'. This was for my own fictional character 'Redwake'.

I'm better with ball and powder, provided the sights are straight. Aye.

Ye have a silver tongue, Diego. Another round for my guests! More rum!

(pours three glasses) Here, here!

Bundled. Squirmy little pirate he is.

A pint of Guiness for both Diego and Hetha and a stack of clean...well...mostly clean plates. Aye. Dig in. There be plenty.

Today's special's are all things Cajun... Crawfish. Gumbo. Tur-duc-ken Chiken with cornbread dressing. Jalapeno Pepper Stuffed with Shrimp. Crawfish Pie. Alligator Sausage w/ Pork. Enjoy.

Well...I have over four dozen varieties. Take your pick. I'll pour.

These are for Christine...

Consider this an order for a bottle then. How long are the straps and are the plugs a hardwood?

Alright...this is what I need. I need a blood red bottle. It has to look as though it has been stained unevenly in blood. How much would it run me?
