Pirate Petee

Thank you so much for all your advice.

Diego, just ran across this post. Sorry I didn't see it time to have your back mate. Us So Cal pyrates must stick together. Besides all my family comes from europe. Well at least Sweden, Italy and the UK. LIVERPOOL> AAARRRRRR

That be the place that I purchased them. I mean the buckets not all the way down to the ground, but they are starting to sag.

Tis a beautifull picture. Shame its so small though. The picture I mean.

Giant rubber bands. Hmmmm...... Could work. Or giant rubber bands to go from my boots and over my shoulders. That way when I walked the boots would look like they were bouncing. Thats IT!

I've heard that the pirate captain, although elected, sometimes had to dress a little more proper on certain occasians. For example if they were ever to get boarded by a naval ship or to freely come aboard any other ship. Also as to what they wore. It would only make sense that they had a access to wide variety of clothes that they could acquire due to plunder and all the exotic portys that they may have visited. As for the etchings and portraits of famous captains, they probably had on their sunday best. So most likely they wore what was considered proper during that period like stockings and small heeled buckle shoes instead of slops, leather sandals and seafaring bucket boots.

I just got some real nice tall black bucket boots. They are about knee level. Only problem is that they are starting to fall and get baggy. A little baggy is ok. Any advice on how to keep em up.

Thanks

I agree. :)

What ever they bloody well pleased!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Ok mates, maybe you can help me out. I'm looking for a little row boat. One that can hold 2 to 4 crew. Maybe be fitted with a small sail. Nothing extravagant, something realitivly cheap. Like 500 max. Preferably in southern california.

October, good month.

Thats an excelent illustration.

So let me get this straight. There is a huge ren fair in vegas during october. Do they have a site I can visit?

I wish I could make it the last day of the Southern fair, but I promissed my winch we would go to the corona fair and take her nephews for the last day of the pirate weekend. Is the corona fair open memorial weekend? If so I will be attending.

I went to the open casting call, but no luck. Sofar, ya gotta think positive.

This is the number 1-818-725-2905. It gives out some info on the films.

I was a little sceptical, with what I heard from all the nay sayers, but I had a blast this last sunday. I went went with about 10 people all dressed. When we first got there somebody told one of my friends that you could only drink in the beer gardens. Not True. There arn't any beer gardens, the whole fair is one big beer garden. You could walk around with your tankard full with ale. I think I only saw one group of police officers. They wern't checking mugs or anything, good thing for me. They are just there to make sure nobody gets stupid. The place seemed to be pretty big, I kept getting lost. The only thing I noticed was that there wern't that many people dressed up. I am definatly going again. At least once more before it closes this year.

Thank God for tall black boots. They're perfect for smuggling. Come to think of it thats probably why us pirates wear them.

YEAH, it worked. Thank you CINN and Thanks for the complement, I'm a graphic designer. I had some free time at work.

I'm trying to post the image, but it wont let me. AARRRGGHHH

On some other ren fair forums, I've been hearing some negative things said about the fair. I'm going this sunday and I,m sure I'll have a fabulous time, even if it means ducking around a corner or two to take a nip from the old hip flask. Has any body been yet, is it as strickt has a lot of people say? Or are they just being negative, and like throwing out negative vibes. Negative bastards. I'm sure I will be able to go the last weekend, I plan on going, hopefully a couple of times if I don't get permanently kicked out by the numerous authority figures lurking about, that I hear so much of by the nay sayers.

Me and part o me crew be going this Sunday. Hell, with my new schedule I can go every weekend.

A dry faire. Never heard of one. There's no such thing if pirates are about. If it is though, I'll be packing a couple of flasks, and a chest full of ale in me ship.
