    YEp - that's them. Discovery asked me for permission, but didn't tell me what for. Thanks for sharing, I'll have to try to watch it. I am humbled though that my piers recognized my photography / branding even without credit given. Thanks guys for sharing these!

    THis is cool! I am working on an impression of a chicken crier - so I have a bit of information on this subject! First off, I have a good bit of chicken coop reference here: http://www.ivanhenry.com/extras/16th_17th_18th_century_criers_market_vendors.html I purchased some fake chickens here: http://www.wildlifetreasures.com/chickens.htm They look great! As for the pens, I sourced a basket maker on Etsy who is excited to make them! I'll post pics when I'm done. Did I mention this impression is for my 75 year old father who wants to try reenactments!?

    Oh man, you had to go and open up that thread / topic again didn't ya?! Sailors / pirates did have parrots from time to time, ear rings are openly debatable but less likely during the GAOP and bucket boots.... Yeah! Here we go again!

    Last night I noticed a store clerk taking his smoking break in front of the propane storage bin. The bin had a giant sign that said " no smoking".

      I had a roommate that would fish toast out of the toaster with a fork while it was plugged in. He did something like that almost every day.

    Are there any GAOP events that are concerned about portraying pirates / sailors / townspeople historically accurate as possible? Searle's comes to mind, but it's just out of the GAOP - barely....

      Hampton blackbeard on the reenactors side. the entertainment and street visitors dress all asort skew the public image though.

      Blackbeard's is certainly trying to bring things up a notch...as to other events there were a few that originally were trying hard but have died out... my backyard?

    Mission - there is quote somewhere referencing Spanish sailors who knew for a fact that they were attacked by Englishmen because "they were wearing trousers" I have a pair in my kit - you would have seen them at PIP in 2009.
