the Royaliste

*Peers out hatch* ...Lookin' like a fine mornin' for Blackbeard's Wake, in spite of alla the weather forecasts......Still packin' me foulies, but Bloody 'eck, jus' might need 'em to fend off the rum 'n spirits!! Don't attempt to board the Ship unless you RR ready for a gRReat time!!

This is discussed at quite a length in another thread on the same topic :)

So what exactly does it mean when the topic precursor says 'whenever two or more pirates are gathered in the name of booty'...end quote...

And donna' be forgettin' the First Mate's acclaim.....Foulies and Flashlights!!

I timed me laptop, an' it be 10 minutes to burn each copy....So,...Localolita'll bring her laptop, and we'll kick out two at a time!!...Makin' a half-dozen up ahead 'o time now........... :) ..Raul's more concerned with burnin' the bacon 'n eggs!!

And goin' waaaay back, 'twas quite a hunt for a piratical place to hold the Wake, an' they be gettin' e'en harder to find when you try an' stuff a square-rigger into the dining room!! ..The Lighthouse seemed a most logical place, with it's own pirate history......Older nautical establishments are fallin' by the wayside nowadays..(need a nuther Starbucks, right??)

Dunno, takes a while to burn these, they are a big file (397MB).....mebbee 5-10 minutes....My burner is a Toshiba R2102 in me laptop

Thought he was gettin' kinda 'chatty!'...

'aven't heard from ye inna while, lass!!...The red and gold are ripstop nylon, the skulls are used dacron sailcloth, and the detail paint is flat black rustoleum enamel......For my second copy, I'll use ripstop white, as the sailcloth protested loudly on construction....

Well. me own .02 cents worth, it be alright with me which ever way you want to go....Short works best for promotin' the Ship, if'n members want it longer, well, matters naught to me as long as it be for personal use. For sure tho, don' be tryin' to absorb the cost 'o this adventure...Mebbee anyone that wants a copy right away should bring a blank and a buck to the Wake, and burn a copy or so onboard.....It's on me hard drive, so copying iddn't a problem

It be lookin' like we may luck out an' not be so rainy, so....I'm checkin' the supply 'o candles in the lanterns, oil in the lamps, an' it seems like one fine piratefest'll be underway!!.....Now, more rum!!

Sure thing, Quartermaster!! I'll run it on me laptop if'n the shore power works, dunno wot the establishment would 'ave.....

..........'Cathead'.............

RRRR pleasure, mate!!...Wait'll we get some stills from RR latest video! ...More Powder to Ye!!

:) We'll 'ave a shot 'o RR best waitin' on ye, maytee!!....

By Neptune's Trident, that be waaay kewl!!...Canna' make it meself, but 'ere's hopin' ye get a turnout!!

:) Me 'n the Rabbit 'ave an accord....He stays outta me rum, 'n I leave the pink chicken alone!

But I'll re-state this, once again, as no one has come forward with a mast hitch yet....How about it.............Bully??......Anyone??

When I first broke into the construction trades, there was no 'OSHA', harnesses, safety lanyards, handrails, etc..Just a tool belt with a rope, an' a quick instruction on a bowline, otherwise, you didn't last the day, literally! ..a one-handed bowline was taught to me as a youth, luckily for my arse!

Well Bloody 'eck, if'n we be difinin' things, then this be my prefered choice of 'other' in a boardin'........ More Powder to Ye!!, says I!!!!!!!!

That thar be some gRReat news, eh??.......I'll try an' get in touch wif' the powder monkey there an' get hooked up!!

Hmm,...I favor me cutlass, methinks.

Ahoy and avast ye!!...'Tis a fine little video,....'tis!!.....Many thanks to those who contributed the time and effort to make this 'lil 'treasure', so 'drinkeme 'earties, Yo-Ho!!...Dunno if'n it'll be 'loadable' anywhere, hecka big file .......Anyone wot reads this an' tries to open theirs, it'll play in Windows Media Player also!!..........

Well, thar be the issue 'o access to the shoreline bay-wide, thereby being okay, seein's how it ain't legally a pistol, but...Best ask the folks at Quinn's about signal-firing as we come about! :)

Betwixt Angel Island and Alcatraz would be the most logical place, but I am plannin' on a light swivel gun charge for RR aRRival at Quinn's...Historically, I've been in the estuary when the HC fired a round off at the Encinal Y.C....
