Capt. Flint

As I said, we will be there for pirate weekend, Meeting up is easy.... We pick a couple of times and a good spot and all meet up..... My most fair Katey's pic is posted in the photo album here. You can either look for her or,,,,,,,,,,, I'lll write here later and post a very specific description of how we will be dressed. Either way, we have plenty of time and I'll have a meet time , place and way later... The PP is a good idea. If everyone wants to wear one, just let us know. Don't forget, we are going to have a little swaray afterwards here at our home and everyone is welcome along with crash space available for a few....... I'll be back later with more details... Flint

We are planning on being there for pirate weekend with everyone invited back to our house afterwards. If anyone wants some crash space.... just let us know..... We live about 30 minutes from Md. ren fair so you do not have to worry about a long drive home.... Looking forward to seeing as many as possible..... the Capt.

After everything I had ot drink, it was pretty funny...... Then I sobered up and read it again.... better drunk

I love the Hello kitty thing. It makes a great tartget when trying out my various guns. Theres just something very satisfying about sighting up that ugle a** kitty and watching it blow to dust when a ball of lead passes through it. Worth every penny I ever paid for a any hello kitty things ( nothing )............ " Here kitty kitty kitty...... BANG ".. you gotta love it................ Flint

If we are able to go, it would most likely be better for the 2006 season. We would also opt for winter ( after xmas ) five nights or under....... Fall would be good also, as long as it is before November. Work is way to busy from Nov through Jan.3 for both of us...... Keep us informed lass....

i love it... Have to try and find me one....

Have a drink on me, then I'll have a few on me also..... Happy days mate..

many happy returns to you.....

Didn't know what you were sewing was under such restrictions. If you feel inclinded to post it after said convention, then we'll be happy to take a looksee........ Flint

It's not all that hard... enjoy......

Good to see you back lass. Was just tlking the other day with Fair Katey about how we haven't seen you or luigi in while. I'm glad to see you back. So....... you've been sewing. Lets see what you,ve made..... Flint

I looked and looked and I cannot find anywhere that I wrote Irish whiskey.... Not that it would have mattered...... It's just a little story i wrote, nothing more..... Flint

We sail by night

and trade by stars light

just beyond the three mile tide

we have boxes and crates

filled with what men crave

..Whiskey, Rum and Rye...

The law does chase us

and watches our moves

but we can slip them if we try

and fill our pockets

with gold and loot

..Whiskey, Rum and Rye...

For every speakeasy

and bordello you see

each of them started by

a few old salts

who know the sea and

..Whiskey, Rum and Rye...

As we sail home

our boat is much lighter

but our pockets are full and we sigh

for each of us here

remembered to keep

a little

..Whiskey, Rum and Rye...

How about reposting the pic. I am unable to see it on the post you have... Thanks...

Been on the water my entire life, even lived on a boat for a while, and I've never had it. So....... I have no idea what will cure it. So in my own ameteur way I reccommend a lot of booze and then have really wild sex on a water bed, before you evr go out to sea. It might not cure you, but, it would make the tirp a lot easier........ The Capt.

Ok... so do we give you two dozen lashes for that one or keel haul you.. The vote is still out.......

Sounds like the best thing to do is keep your info to yourself then lass. Protect your end and you have nothing to worry about. Myself.... well, I like the idea of seeing a flick and not knowing whats coming. Half the fun is in the mystery.......... The Capt.

Now thats plunder. I especially like the derringer, I have always liked derringers and cannot wait to get one meself.. Flint

Wasn't aware of that mate.... oh well........

A great source for doc. on clothing... 20,000 years in fashion. It's a bit of an expensive book, but, has a great deal of info. on all clothing....

Sounds most interesting... Keep us informed as to any new events that unfold.......

If you are looking for historical info.... I'm not sure where to tell you to look. If you are looking to buy one; Dixie gun works has a nice one for sale and at a fairly good price too. Let me know how you make out..... Flint

I've dealt with Dixie in the past and they have fine weapons. Perdosali is an excellent gun to buy, but, look around, you may fine better elsehwere. From those I know who have used Perdoslai, they have been very very pleased with them... Good luck......... Flint

With pick and shovel we started to dig

for treasure buried neath the sand was hid

When just a mere three feet down we hit

a row of logs well set in

carved in the wood were words of fear

warnings and curses to not go near

With backs set to it we dug them out

and started to dig with a hunters shout

for hunters we were, daring and bold

searching for buried jewels and gold

Suddenly as six feet told

we came upon some bones of old

covered in mud, mire and disease

but something else did our eyes see

Around ones neck a sign was hung

with words forwarning that death would come

To any and all who dug, it said

That a curse upon his grave is laid

We all took pause and passed the rum

to chase our fears and prime our blood

" A curse " said me mate then he laughed and cussed

and spit upon the bones that we dug

As we removed the remains of old

We felt the wind upon our necks blow cold

But our fears were forgotten just as fast

for under the grave was a giant chest

We hauled it out and broke the lock

for what was inside gave us a shock

Jewels and gold..emeralds and pearls

Riches enough to buy the world

So back to our ship we did start

Laughing and drnking and we pulled our cart

When suddenly old Tom took a slip

He started to tumble spin and twist

Down the hill he rolled non-stop

and came to rest as his head met a rock

Tom was dead and so much for it

that simply meant a greater share of the profits

We loaded the chest and started to sea

When suddenly, out of nowhere it seems,

A might wave did crash upon us

swamping our boat and spilling in on us

As it passed I looked to see

no-one left in the boat but me

and as I came upon the ship

I spied me mates that were left upon it

Staring down at the chest and me

with steel and guns and smiles teethed

We'll take that chest good sir they said

and hoisted it up and cast me adrift

They left me for dead, but, thier fate I know

As they made sail, a storm began to blow

A mighty gale that turned hurricane

Caused the ship to hit a reef and sink

And my curse it seems was even worse

for left upon this isle was I

With no survival.. barren and dry

So as I close this missive to ye

and crawl into the hole I see

As I lay my bones to rest

my grave does rest upon a chest

How it got there I have no idea

But to those who find it I say beware

For if ye dig it up be warned

A fate much worse then this is yours...........

All of us are in a time, placed out of time. As for the simple life we all dream of.... it might be good to remember that each generation sees the one before it as a simpler time. I and my friends discuss what your saying a lot lass, and we alll have our own theories. I just try to remind myself that the time of yore was the most modern then, just as we are at our most modern now. The generations to come after us will most likely say the same of our time. That it was a simpler and better time to be in........ Can you truly picture people two or three hundred years from now re-enacting us and wondering how great it was to be here.. Just a thought... The Capt.
