Gangway! Gangway! Make room fer the frog legs! (Ciaran hands a large bag of Crowns to William) I thank ye, William! Ye've outdone yerself this time! Magnificent! (turning to Fancy and offering the dish) Would ye care to be the first to partake in this scrumptious amphibious feast?

nickel, dime, quarter, penny

Blimey! All this frog talk done got me all hungry. William, good chap, a bag of crowns here (taps coat pocket) fer ye if'n ye can fry up a mess of frog legs fer the crowd.

A REPEAT PERFORMANCE

Woo-hoo! I finally got one! That be Night Moves, by Bob Seger! How about this one: "I travel the world and the seven seas Everybody's looking for something"

Arr! Nice work, Joshua. Thank ye fer posting these detailed paintings and the information about Canaletto. I learned quite a bit and I bet others will, too. What a great hobby ye've started.

(no Spanish speaker, so Ciaran ponders what to say....) Corona and Dos Equis

It slices and dices!

Thank ye, Captain Jim, fer the thorough report. I wish I could have been there, but me work interfered. I especially like Nature's way of makin herself known during the ceremony! Twas hailing here in Durham as the front came through!

Twilight Zone

This is a great question, RR. I would say that my persona here (Captain Ciaran) is pretty much the same as me in "real life". If I allowed Ciaran to be all that I wanted in a persona I'd probably be banned from posting! Ha! That might apply fer many of us here. Do we not temper our personas? If this became a "real" pyrate pub and we were all "real" pyrates in it, I bet it would be one hell of a WILD scene!

N'AWLINS (New Orleans)

(Ciaran rubs his deadlights as he surveys the room.) Arrgh, must be too much drinkin, fer yonder, I swear, the Immortal Merrydeath be lookin' like a Hollywood Star! William! Hurry good Sir! I be seeing visions of divas!

(Ciaran wakes up two days later in a back corner of the Tsunami Kate, the stem of what must have been a red rose hanging out of his mouth, his heels melted down from too much Flamenco dancing, and the distinctive smell of Dawn dishwashing liquid hanging in the air) William, good sir, have ye anything for me aching head?

Blackbeard, himself, addressed the North Carolina General Assembly as they met in Bath on Tuesday, kicking off the first town's 300th birthday. Here is a link to the news article with a slide show. The 6th photo in those slides shows a superb photo of Blackbeard (who I believe in real life is Ben Cherry, who some of ye will know). http://www.wral.com/news/4267586/detail.html
