  1. I was trying to find a brand of rum and stumbled across this...and wow a Rum Tasting event is coming and you can apply...would'nt that be just grand for a bunch o pyrates?

    One of the articles:

    The Tradition of Rum and the Sea

    You just can't beat sharing a rum drink with friends on a boat at the end of another perfect day in the tropics. Add the excitement and anticipation of the elusive green flash when the sun dips below the western horizon and you'll experience one of the great pleasures of life on the water. This scene doesn't end, however, when our brightest star is gone from sight. It continues to be played out westward around the globe as sailors salute the setting sun, rum glass in hand. For centuries, the close of day has been reverently acknowledged by sailors, but how rum came to be part of the choreography of this event is more than a coincidence........(continues check website)

  2. I had heard a bad review from an office co-worker, but gotta still see it myself, either in theatre or DVD releases. Temple of Doom wouldn't have been so bad if they cut back the gross stuff like the monkey brains and that horrible gross 'let's take the heart out' ceremony.....eeeeew yuck.

  3. I know many of you don't watch tv....or follow the horrible news...but sometimes you gotta stay in touch and for the past few years I have been paying attention to Tim and what he had to say politically or what answers he got from politicians on his show "Meet the Press". It struck me so tragically on Friday went I heard it briefly on the news...and thought I was hearing things due to I was napping. I got up later to hear that I was not hearing things and that it tragically was true.

    I would like to say that Tim was the best of the best of news reporters/interviewers and it is going to be tough for the rest of this Election year not to have him cover the blow by blows or the debates. I will sorely miss him, trully. Rest in Peace dear Tim!

  4. ..yes I read many reviews that said the same that you did about the food, I guess it is more the appeal of the place. One reviewer mentioned they have peeps dressed up in POTC characters as hosts....must be a big hit with little privateers..eh?

  5. yep piratety stuff goes quick...they usually get a lot around Halloween check back then...and I always shop there so I will let you know when those toy sets are back in stock..!

    I bought a plastic flintlock and doctored it up with my own paint job to make it look real. I had it stuck in my belt at the last Halloween party and a couple of guys thought it was a real prop and not plastic....asking me where I had got it.

    Quartermaster...we have dollar tree here too..sometimes they get the same stuff sometimes not.

  6. Hmmmm what a great idea for a new BBQ shack..."Pyrate Barb-B Que"....mmmm gives all kinds of ideas of what a patron could face once walking inside an establishment with that name...Cracklin Pig would be a good one on the menu.....reminds of when Jack Sparrow was dangling over that pit with the natives...he he :rolleyes:
