V if ye were a pirate how would ye prefer to go?
I don't know how you feel about it, but you were male in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Hungary around the year 1175. Your profession was that of a leader, major or captain.
Hmm well I'm 1/2 Hungarian and 1/2 Sweedish. Interesting
(Yes I have Vikings on both sides)
Hmm..
Pirate would be my first demand
For a friend addressing me...Gerl, or Lass is ok
and only as Mr. Hand put it "Aargh.. that be a fyne wench...." could be perhaps muttered in a crowded pub as I pass by...
although ""Aargh.. that be a fyne Pirate wench " would be better.
And in private company...occasionally.. "tart" heehee
1) The number of masts on the ship keep changing.
2) "Wasn't that island on the right side?..." "what island?"
3) The word barnacle is used waaay too much.
4) William Shatner is IN the movie.
5) The captain is wearing pleather boots.
6) The music from Spongebob would make a more believable soundtrack.
7) You swear the leading man shorted you for change at Long John Silvers last month.
9) Gilligan appears anywhere
"Nothing will compare with the early breaking of day upon the
wide ocean."
Richard Henry Dana
from Two Years Before the Mast, 1840

Currently I am reading this..
Looking at the following quote makes ut easy to understand why sailors and pirates would be superstitious..
~~~~
Yet a sailor's life is at best, but a mixture of a little good with much evil, and a little pleasure with much pain. The beautiful is linked with the revolting, the sublime with the commonplace, and the solemn with the ludicrous.

The only one I came across was superstition about renaming a ship without proper ceremony of one kind to put the "soul" of the previous name at rest.
Well now please endulge th ladies out there.... there arent enough o ye piratey men in our everyday lives so's we needs our lil fantasies..
It's the romantic, funny, overconfident, tough yet occasionally childlike wrapped in the potential for danger and general scoundriliness (is that a word) the whole general uncertainty that is for women what a bodacious rack with a willing smile and some really good connections for sports tickets, pistols or whatnot is for men. Not to sound shallow. LOL. There is of course a lot more than that but we're just havin some fun me n th other lasses....
ye kno we likes ye all ye manly men!!!!
