http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...ralia_endeavour SYDNEY, Australia - A replica of the ship that British explorer James Cook sailed when he discovered Australia more than 200 years ago got stuck on a sandbar off Sydney on Sunday, five months after leaving Britain to retrace the historic voyage. AP Photo The tall ship Endeavour was stuck for four hours in Botany Bay near a monument commemorating Cook's visit to the port on April 29, 1770. Cook was a lieutenant in Britain's Royal Navy at the time. Rod Kemp, Australia's arts and sport minister, who spent the day on board, said it was fitting that the crew enjoyed a perfect viewing of the landing place of Port Kurnell. "Kurnell was a special place for Cook and the boat stuck on the sand bank in full view of the memorial, so there you go," Kemp said. "Fortunately the boat was able to get clear water and she's still completely seaworthy." The boat set sail from Britain in November to retrace the voyage of the original Endeavour when it discovered Australia. It followed Cook's route, traveling to South America, Tahiti, the Pacific Islands and New Zealand before reaching Australia's east coast. While the boat missed firing broadsides from her cannon in a welcome-home parade, hundreds of people still waited dockside for her arrival at the Australian National Maritime Museum. Kemp said the Australian government would contribute $576,000 a year to allow the replica Endeavour to operate tours from its base outside the museum in Sydney's Darling Harbor.

It's good to see that our favorite Ebay pirate is at it again..err umm..STILL I think this guy has a good shot as a science fiction writer. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=2270691921 "I was very excited when we got this from a private collector who was on the set during filming, it is the Jack Sparrow Telescope with leather handle, this has been noticably used and the brass is a little worn and so is the leather, I am not sure if it was from storage or it was intentionally done this way, a true collectors piece. Comes with COA on parchment paper and prop ID # assigned to this. 16" Brass in size. Buyer to pay shipping and insurance. "

I bought a Dialect Cd & Booklet from here http://www.paulmeier.com/booklets.html I emailed this Paul Meier and asked him which English dialect CD I should order, he suggested I purchase the Hampshire Dialect. Hw offers a pretty nifty service, you can order custom CD's using your own text and he also offers phone coaching. It's great and all, but I need to find a source to 1700's it up. I've been listening to to it all day, I think I should have ordered the Cockney CD..not sure yet, I'll work with it some more. Hawkins, do you have a source on Faire dialect? Perhaps Cascabel is right, maybe I should just "go Hollywood"

Ahoy there o' learned piratical people! I wish to study up on 1600's -1700's English. I found this CD online today and does anybody think this would be of any use to me? Afterall, I can only watch POTC so many times http://www.renstore.com/cgi-bin/Renstore.s...View/PNZ&2D1001 Perhaps somebody can point me to some other helpful resources? M. Bloodheart

Aye, these indeed be at Michael's Craft store! Me thinks they may be plundered for around $50.00. Can't be 100% sure on the regular price. All is not lost me 'earties! Ye can plunder 40% off coupons in ye local newspaper every Sunday, i'fn yer port has a Michael's and these fine piratical plunderings are not already on SAIL!

AVAST YE HARBOR MASTER! I be kindly asking ye to return me purple Hard Rock Cafe socks, Gene Simmons action figure and me Thigh Master. No questions asked.

I've been looking for maps like that meself with not much luck. Only thing I have found are these from EBAY http://search.ebay.com/Caribbean-Map_W0QQs...rectZ1QQfromZR8

I emailed this land lubber regarding histhe authenticity of his "Will Turner Axe" auction, linking him to my Screen Cap comparision on my photobucket account, which is also posted here. Needless to say, I never heard back from him. LOL! He claims to be on the set after the "FILMITING" That clears things up for me.

**Wakes up from a Nighttime Nyqil and X-tra strength Sudafed haze** AACHOOO!! I hope I didn't give anybody a computer virus after that sneeze That be great news Bess! I'm sure that will be extemely popular! Let's hope for a Barbossa too! They could swash all kinds of buckles between the two of them. :) I would make one small recommendation to the future Jack Sparrow of the Park.... Iron underwear. I'm sure he we be manhandled..er umm WOMANhandled on a regular basis. He might wind up with an overly pinched bottom if he doesn't keep a weather eye out fer roving hands. M. Bloodheart **goes back for more Sudafed**

So it would seem Sorry had to slip that one in there....

Capt Flint, I'm sorry that you don't care that people are getting ripped off and taken advantage of. That's fine that ye don't. To each 'is own mate. Perhaps I shouldn't, buy I DO care when people get taken and held for fools by big corporations or even by scurvy landlubbin' Ebay pirates. I guess life would be so much easier and less complicated if nobody cared about such things, right mate? I for one feel terrible that these people think they have something from POTC. I feel terrible that they will show it off their new found "POTC plunder" off to their friends thinking that they have the real thing. Yeah, It bugs me that there are people out there with no conscience. He is the one who has to look at himself in the mirror. We may be pirates mate, but we are good people. Morgana Bloodheart

I understand these guys have an execellent reputation! I will be orderin' me boots from these waters http://caboots.zoovy.com/category/mp/

Aye! It looks like we some of that hot Viking blood in us! ARRRG!!!

Of course it helps me Scandanavian homie! I be half Norwegian! To be honest! I look like the poster child for all Viking women everywhere.

Thank ye Kon Tiki! "Pirate Kingdon" sounds like an interesting read!!

Well, ye do have an interesting question thar Robert. I guess people want AUTHENTIC movie props for collecting purposes and to generally say they have an authentic movie prop!! I would LOVE to have an authentic POTC anything for this very reason! I would think that the authentic movie props hold their value and more than likely, appreciate in value! I think the more popular the movie determines the price! However, I have seen plenty of movie props from movies that people can't give away! This was quite a number of years ago...I read somewhere thatg somebody bought the original Maltese Falcom for approx 3 million!! Recently Johnny Depp's costume he wore in "Don Juan DeMarco" went for somethin like $1500.00 - $2,000 ish! I can't imagine what the authentic Jack Sparrow would get!! WHOOO!!

I used to drive me older brothers to the brink of madness with the "Arms Thing" says I. Almost walked me off the plank they did. Yes, I can still do it.

More prop comparison while I'm at it By the way this seller added this sentence to the "Barbossa Hat" auction - which is now unavailable to buy "The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale"

Just for kicks I decided to do a little POTC Prop comparsion..AHEM!! Here is his "POTC" Drum alledgedly used in the Gallows scene: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=2263062874 Here is the screen cap I just made, there are only two quick closeups of the drums being used in this scene, I think the main parts of the drums here are blue.
