Rogue Mermaid

I just rented the R (ARRR?) rated version of this by accident. The one I picked up had the porno sticker on the front but turned out to be the edit.

But either way it was a really good laugh. I can't say I ever felt um...frisky...due to the film (it was edited) but I laughed outloud at the silliness of the whole thing over and over again.

Balloon Mollies.

I am plagued with balloon mollies.

Actually, I shouldn't say that. They really have grown on me. The problem is that they poop too much and they reproduce too much. They are livebears and once a female has been inseminated she stores it. They go at it once and she is good as pregnant for life. Every yearmore mollies are born. Weird thing is some of them don't even look like balloon mollies and the only available fathers are balloon mollies!

I actually changed the gravel in my tank from large river rocks to small gravel. The molly fry thrive in the river rocks, and well...in the gravel the circle of life occurs. As a result I have only one balloon molly fry right now...and about seven adults. At one point I was up to four adults and twelve fry.

My current favorite fish is my long finned blue ram.

THAT is a lovely cover! Nicely done

To defend myself:

I AM an "a-hole counter" (with a degree in history, even-> I was picking on myself)

I'm an a-hole counter too.

1....2....3....

There are at least three a-holes in the office working with me.

If Blackbeard was a blonde, brunnet, or redhead, What image would he have created for himself?

Probley the color same thing except with the new color. For example Yellowbeard. You never know, I'm sure he was a creative guy.

Why the hell have most people never HEARD of Bart Roberts?

Because he isn't on prime tv, the movies, or popular radio

Does a "death's head" mean the skull only or the skull and bones together?

I don't know. Wiser pirates than I can answer this one.

How many of us wouldn't be scared crapless if we ever came across a REAL 18th C. pirate?

I would. Chances are good he would want to rob, rape, or kill me if not all of the above. I'd have to say that's pretty scary

Why can't history a-hole "counters" and ren "fairies" not seem to get along?

Because everyone has their own opinions and some people are willing to argue and fight to prove that their's is the "correct way" to do something. This applies to just about everything in life.

Lets not call the historical types a-holes, there are alot of very nice people in the pub who consider themselves "counters".

Don't we line the same stuff in general?

Do you mean like? Sort of, in a way we do. It's like saying we all like reading. There's so many facets to reading and books though that no two readers are alike.

Why did so many historical famous pirates actually suck at piracy?

Maybe they got the job from friends or family and we're actually qualified

Why does "hollywood" seem COMPELLED to replace great history with less interesting melodrama?

Because they want to make money and try to appeal to what the majority of movie go'ers want. Unfortunatly, it some situations it means dumbing down the good stuff.

Why do I WASTE so much time on the internet?

Your tv is broken?

Would pirates even use the internet, if it existed in 1718?

Yes, they would use it to pirate movies and music

Why were so many "pirate ships" names "Revenge"?

Because "The Flower" isn't very intimadating

Why is there a "preview" on The Black Swan warning "Piracy is a Crime" "Piracy is stealing" and "Piracy is illegal". Aren't we about to WATCH a movie ABOUT PIRATES???

That's kinda funny. I never thought about that....

Why is there a warning on my telephone not to use it in the shower, in a thunderstorm?

Because sadly, someone has most likely tried it and found out the hard way.

WHY AM I STILL TYPING?

Maybe you are avoiding work just like i am

^ Fire Water. Drank too much of it straight when I was in college

< My coworker is looking at naked pictures of Daniel Radcliff

V Any good plans for the weekend?

^ Lager usually, but I won't turn down an ale

< My supervisor is putting in her 2 weeks on Monday and I'm nervous

V Does the goundhog have a chance to not see his shadow?

Scratch that last message I wrote! It's a slow day and the managing editor is letting us leave. I won't be at work to call!

That's wonderful!

I'd be lying if I said I didn't think of you when I saw them

I saw Epic Movie last night. I laughed extremely hard at some parts, and thought other parts were overwhelmingly stupid. I'd say save your $9 and rent it in a few months, but definatly rent it. There are some great laughs.

They do a pretty funny parody of Jack Sparrow (Capt. Jack Swallows). I was wondering how Disney was taking it. Did the makers of Epic Movie need permission to parody him?

It's funny. I've found that the most ridicoulous songs are my favorites to work out to.

I'm embarrised to admit that I really pick up the pace on the treadmill to "Fergalious" and "Who Let The Dogs Out".

Jim you and your wife are angels. Thank god you are there for those poor kids. They didn't ask for any of this and it's so wonderful that you both opened your hearts and home for them.

I've heard so many stories of drug/booze addicted moms and dads these days. It seems to be a plague of selfishness going on. I hope your neice gets it together and keeps it together. My prayers are with all of you.

I especially like the line:

The ONLY Real Head of Pirate Davey Jones on EBAY!

^ Eatting hardshell blue crabs and a diet coke for breakfast (Maryland)

< I'm working late with an oddball coworker. I don't trust her. Ahh, small office politics!

V Who do you want to see win the Super Bowl?

I did my hour at the gym last night after working late and I'll do another hour tonight, after leaving here late again

I'm not going everynight, but they say you need to give your muscles a few days off to rest so I'm letting myself get away with it for now. As soon as the weather breaks I plan to jog outdoors. I wish my gym had better weekend hours. I'm a night exerciser and 7-3pm Saturday and Sunday means I've been skipping weekends. I need an exercise to fill in the days I can't meet the gym's hours.

I miss Tai Bo class. I hate doing the videos at home. I think I better get over that though..

I did one of the Carmen Electra strip tease aerobic videos in the summer. I just felt so silly that I don't think I actually accomplished any exercise. I was too busy laughing at myself. Do those things work for anyone?

Does anyone else think it's hard to do videos?

Sorry I'm so whiney I need to shut up and workout!

My group and I really enjoyed that last year Blackjohn!

I love Turkey Point Lighthouse in North East Maryland. You park and then have a nice long walk to get to it. It's got a beautiful view of the Chesapeake Bay all around it. On weekends they have someone sell water and soda for the people and they put out a big bowl of water for the dogs. I love walking my dog there.

*Looks down her shirt*

That's odd. Mine always point straight ahead...

'm a treadmll addict once I start. I've found if you can wear a headset (and your housemates can stand it) if you can sing along while you works out then you know you're in good shape.

I want to sing along to my iPod at the gym...but the people on the treadmills around me might be alittle weirded out. I imagine it's hard to keep a straight face working out next to someone singing "Holla Back Girl".

I'd like to get a timer at work that goes off every hour. Then I would be sure to get at least 8 glasses of water a day. 8 hours of work, 8 glasses of water.

I rented an apartment at the beach for a week a few years ago that had a ship's wheel for a headboard. I thought it was pretty cool.

I have that skull with the black roses too Jill. I left the batteries in mine while I was storing it and now it no longer plays, "The Funeral March Funk". Very disapointing....

I went to the gym last night (and tonight I will again). I'm working out for about an hour after work. I'm doing all cardio right now - 10 min on the stepper, 30 min on the treadmill, and 10 min on the elipitical.

I've discovered that I stay warm for a long time on the nights I work out. It's nice since the weather plummitted last night.

My mood is alot better too when I know I've been working out.

I like Jack's military pride. He can tell me to bite his ass any 'ol day.

(I'm not an ass biter...but he can say it if he wants )

I'm very sorry to hear about your loss Sam.

Thank you for your concern for the ladies of the pub.
