  1. Here's three pictures (I didn't take them) that I thought were amusing: Christa from the former reality show "Pirate Master" was there: Boats, Christa, Huggable Stynky and friend Rumba having way too much fun!
  2. We here at the Pub want to make sure all new people to the Pub get a proper welcoming so don't be afraid to speak up and say hi! Rumba
  3. chemical warfare? ROTFLMAF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I almost spit out my coffee on the monitor!
  4. Yes, Gold Coast Productions who put on the Ojai and Escondido faires (among other events they do) is adding a brand new pirate faire in Vista, California located in north county San Diego. For more information go to: Pirate Faire in Vista Vista is the next city after Oceanside off Highway 78.
  5. My partner Boats gets these astronomy pictures and this one is so incredible I just have to share it with all of you! Astronomy
  6. Yo ho ho and a tangled web of shrewdness does greet us or is it a shrewdness of a tangled web? Only a Tangle Shrew would know.
  7. I will always remember Paul Newman as Butch Cassidy (from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid) and in the movie Sting.
  8. Saw the zine recently at Ojai (someone brought it), but haven't received it myself........

  10. Welcome to the Pub! Now hand over yer booty an' ye won't get insults hurled at ye! Just kidding!
  11. Regarding the duck, I have never ever seen a black duck before!!!!! Everyone in our group was amazed!
  12. You might have to get insurance, which is now being considered for all groups who use blackpowder at events. It covers your butts and the public.
  13. whaaaaaaa...........I never saw you!
  14. Ahoy and welcome! Enjoy the new re-modeled Pub! Rumba **Save the whales, collect the whole set**
  15. <snicker> Thank goodness I don't look my age! You should have seen the old men in the Clubhouse looking at me the day we went in to fill out paperwork for the place. It was like you could read their minds......what a hoot!
  16. What a great weekend! The weather was good, well at least at our camp it was (we have the most wonderful breezes), and it was good seeing Red-Handed Jill, Ransom, Chain Shot, Jacky Tar, Kenneth, GrayDog, and others. Looking forward to the next weekend! Rumba
  17. Thank you to some of my favorite men!
  18. I'm not colorblind, but I do like this cleaner look, as reading things on the old board was difficult many times, especially those who like to write in Colors............
  19. It's happened! It's a go! Whoo- hooo! My big news: Boats and I will be moving sometime in November if not sooner to our very own HOME! Yup, we bought a home in San Marcos, on the borderline of Escondido! Actually, it's a manufactured home in a Senior Park (55 and older), 2 bedroom, 2 bath, good sized kitchen, with a sun room, 1608 sq. ft. (the sun room is not included in that measurement -as it was put on with no permit). There is a wonderful view of the mountains and a great breeze comes through! AND, my friends Dawn (who I share a vendor booth with at the Escondido faire) and Tony live just up the hill off the same road- just a couple of minutes away! We are right near the Clubhouse that is huge that has a big kitchen, tv room, billard room, gaming room, meeting room and library. The jacuzzi is indoors along with an exercise room. The pool is only three feet deep along the sides and five feet deep in the center- at least that's what we were told....at least it's a pool. Personally, I'm looking forward to some peace and quiet, with no loud parties til all hours of the morning, no burglaries/car break-ins/damage, no drug dealers, no south of the border types who have absolutely no respect for anyone else that live around them, no car alarms (do you know, there hasn't been a single day in the 13 plus years I've lived in this apartment, that some car alarm hasn't gone off!) I didn't need my china cabinet, because there is a built in display area in the dining room (that went to Bill's sister) and we just gave our big oak entertainment center to some people down the hall, because there just isn't a wall big enough to put it. With so much room, we actually don't have enough furniture to sit on, with the exception of our futon that acts as our couch, I guess we will use some of our chairs we use for events, including our camping chairs....lol..... The only thing I am not liking is the foot feeling good plush WHITE CARPETING throughout including the bathrooms! We will have to take the carpeting out of the bathrooms and I suggested just putting down some peel and stick tiles till we can afford new flooring. I truly got sticker shock when I started checking on flooring.....whoa! To put vinyl or laminate throughout I was looking at damn near 9 grand! I think we'll have white carpeting for quite some time..... We got the home inspection, most was in good condition....there seems to be a question about the plumbing as water wasn't coming out of the shower head in the first bathroom and there was wetness under the house (which sits on piers); the foundation people came out to check that and (they will be making the foundation permanet as required by San Diego and the CalVet loan we are using) and the guy found where the water is coming from (a leaky pipe from the water heater) and we had a plumber inspector come and he fixed the leak. The non-working shower head is now working again, as that was fixed too. We were also told the roof will have to be replaced in about 5 years or less...... Buying a house is a real eye-opener!
  20. Thank you! I'm going to post it in Beyond Pyracy for those who don't come here.
  21. I'm absolutely fascinated by your how-I'm-doing-it pictures! Keep up the great work!
