Rumba Rue

Not that I'd be drunk enough or stoned enough to do it, but how much does that kind of tattooing cost? Rumba Rue **The best part of valor is discretion**

I really like Cutthroat Island! Well Geena Davis ain't the greatest, (provides eye candy for the males), but it's a lot of fun, some great lines, amusing adventure and in fact I have a copy - though it's VHS. Worth getting in my humble opinion. Rumba Rue **Another smooth escape disguised as a dramatic exit!**

What a bunch of B***S**T! Now I've never gone there but that is the biggest bag of crap I've heard since way back when, Southern Faire and Phyllis Patterson tried to run off all the other faires starting up, cuz she wanted to be the only one! Well I for one say, "Baloney! There's nothing stopping one from dressing up as a pirate and participating! Even if it's only standing and watching! What are they going to do, sue?" The people that are saying that no one else can do it but them, are going to learn a very hard lesson, when people rebel! Trust me, it will happen. Notice how many Renaissance Faires there are now in just about every state? You cannot mandate that only one group can do what others can't. Those people may have started the parade, but they cannot tell people what they can and cannot wear! The end result will be, no one will participate at all! If nothing else, wear yer pirate costumes and carry STRIKE signs! Rumba Rue ** **

Well unfortunatly at this time I don't own a digital camera (it's on the list for next year), but I made the most tremendeous haul I've ever had for a Christmas! My companion Boats gave me a Celtic rubber stamp set I've been wanting for a long time. He also gave me a beautiful Celtic hair clip, and it's no small thing either! From my friend Bob, he gave me a really cute Christmas train snow globe goodies - there's the engine with Santa, and three small train cars, one with a bear, one with a penguin, and the last with a moose. All can be shaken to make the 'snow' move. But the real haul came from my companion's family. They gave me a card to Target for a good size amount of money, a check for $100.00, and some nice smelling vanilla body lotion. From their daughter and her husband I got a book on Celtic stuff and a cd for the computer - all to make my needlepoint that much eaiser to transfer! But the real treat and the best of all, came from my companion's daughter and her mother who went to Ireland last summer. They gave us a beautiful Waterford crystal Clippership! It's absolutely gorgeous! I saw it in a catalog a couple of years ago, so I know how seriously expensive it was. It measures roughly 7 inches, by 7 inches. It's just outstanding! I don't think a picture could do it justice! I'm grateful for the things I have gotten this year, and I am grateful for the family of my companion who has taken me in as one of their own. Blessed be.

Well several years ago, the Port Royal Privateers were doing a ship battle in Long Beach for the promotion of the Horatio Hornblower show that was soon to debut on A & E. Afterwards, we trooped over to a local restraunt to eat. No one was expectin' us that's for sure. Besides taking up almost six tables set up in a row, when it came time to eat, a few pulled out their pointy-sticky weapons to do so. Nothing like seeing Louie Lambie pull out his big sword to stab a roll he couldn't reach. You should have seen the looks on the normal people watching us, totally priceless! After one of the Sea Shantey Festivals in San Diego, we trooped over to Seaport Village to eat at the Jolly Roger Restaraunt (too bad it's not there anymore). Some poor ol' lady with her older lady friends was celebrating her birthday. Ah, nothing like a bunch o' pirates getting up and surrounding her and singing at the top of our lungs the Mongolian Birthday Song. Poor lady almost had a heart attack she was laughing so hard! All I can say is when the Port Royal Privateers are out to eat (and in costume of course) watch out, cuz we're the biggest RABBBLE ROUSERS THERE ARE! Rumba Rue **By the swish o' me sword and swoosh o' me cape, May yer ships be laden with fanciful treasure, Which may be a pirates wonderous fate, Oh but by the dawn and the sea's green measure, Tis the love of the ship and a timely date. For us to gather together, we truly are the best darn crew mates!** (an orginal poem by yours truly)

PRP got a Marquee tent from them that has been great! Rumba Rue **You there, go hoist something**

By hook or by crook, I'm flyin' off ta Neverland on a permanet basis. Wait a minute, I think I've been there all along! Rumba Rue **When life hands ye lemons, make lemonade!**

Rumba Rue ** **

Here's ta you, And here's ta me, And here's ta life on the rollin' sea, And should we ever disagree, the hell with you, and here's ta me! Just a kiddin' ye know. Have a good one Gary! RumbaRue **Yabba dabba do!**

So's I raise a toast to ye with me Bloody Mary! Happy Days! Rumba Rue **Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! Somebody got a gun?**

Ok, I know some o' ye are o' different faiths, but this be fun stuff for all ye! Enjoy! http://web.icq.com/shockwave/0,,4845,00.swf Rumba Rue **Somewhere o'er the rainbow is my pot o' gold**

Booby? I got those! Ooops, sorry wrong thing, ya mean BOOTY! I got that too! But since I ain't opened any o' me giftys yet, ye'll have ta wait. Rumba Rue **Forget the yo ho ho, just gimme the rum**

<snicker> I truly appreciate someone who thinks like me. :angry: Yup, it was in the script. RumbaRue **I had a mind once, I'm still looking for it**

I'm thoroughly enjoying the pictures! Ah, near the end I spotted Jeff Steele (titled contitusiants -sic) Also spotted Dawn Berry Bradley and Tony Kopec, all PRP'rs. Well, you guys looked like you all were havin' way too much fun. Tell me, were you ever sober? Rumba Rue ** **

Try a cotton duct material. It's a bit thicker, a little stiffer, and is machine washable. One of the more creative pants I've made was for Louie Lambe. He gave me a couple of laundry type bags, and I turned them into sailor pants for him. He loves them! Rumba Rue **Partridge in a pear tree? Where? Ooooh, dinner!**

Didn't feel a thing, zip, nada. The only things movin' at the time were me fingers typing on the keyboard, and me eyes watchin' the computer screen. Too far south, and besides, this here location happens ta be on granite....hard stuff to rumble. RumbaRue **Partridge in a pear tree? Where? Ooooh, dinner!!!!**

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, OH GREAT LADY!!! Ok now ye can pour a round o' drinks! RumbaRue **Smile and Let Your Spirit Soar!**

Ah, tis nice ta see some people I know, besides Jamica Rose and Michael McLeod, there's Jerry Reyes and Louie Lambie, both from good ol' California, and PRP. Now I know a number o' PRP'rs went, but have yet ta see any pictures o' them. Perhaps they did get swallered up by too much rum? Rumba Rue **A balanced diet is a mug of rum in each hand**

VOUYRUE? I meant to spell it "voyeur" BLAST! Heheeeeee, someone's been thinkin' o' me, how sweet! Ah, but onta other things.... here be my toast ta all o' ye! Here's to them that sail the sea, And the ladies that stay on land, May the former be well rigged, And the later be well manned! Happy Holidays to all of ye! Rumba Rue ** Woman Entitled to Nights of Complete Happiness**

Unfortunatly I ain't inta game stuff, so's I'm afraid ye'll have ta find another 'innocent' soul. RumbaRue **She's a pirate wench if she's got RR on her quarters**

I totally agree with Duchess. Suiting is probably what you want. I tend to use a cotton lining if possible, simply for breathability if using heavy tapestry or similar materials. Rumba Rue **Save the whales, collect the whole set**

Obviously she's been inta the sauce again! Happy Birthday!. May all the sauciness of life fine ye! Cheers! RumbaRue **I can imagine quite a lot**

Here be another one who seems to have lost his way here. But in any case here's a Happy Birthdayto him! RumbaRue ** **

Well Happy Birthday! Even if yer hidin' out these days - haven't seen ye around much, but cheers anyways! RumbaRue ** **

Ok, I admit, I was a little slow on what one was suppose to do. Ah, make the little dot bounce around and remove squares of clothing. Unfortunatly, the damn man has the best part covered! Now what fun is that?! <arrgggh, I have a hard time with these foreign language things> RumbaRue **Oy oh oh (Dyslexic Pirate)**
