I know Lady Barbossa lives in Cedar Rapids and with all the flooding, I am concerned about her and any other Pub members that might be caught up in the floods and tornadoes. Please check in and let us know you are ok. Rumba

Anybody have directions from San Diego?

Well zero for 'Rumba' and 6,238 for Rue. Now my real name, There are 42,599 with my first name and 27,385 with my last and only 4 people in the whole USA have my exact name! **Note: If there are so many with my first name, how come I can't find those little license plates and name tag things with it? So far I managed to find a small shot glass in Las Vegas and a small heart with my name after years and years of searching.

ROTFLMAF!!!! I walked into a certain store one day and the young guy asked to see my id. I told him I thought he was kidding! Nope, showed it to him and said, "See I'm old enough to be your grandma!"

Are all the sauces hot/spicy?

ok, I'll just look at it as Oz gone bad.

Sad to say, but with gas prices on the rise, events may be scarce of the paying public. Will remain to be seen. I know I'm not driving anywhere far.

I need to get out of here going fishing today.

That was really interesting Morgan.

All you have to do is post a link to a really great place that you think others would like to see. Please no stupid videos. my link: sunlight

Yup saw the box with the Ark of the Covenant, it wasn't hard to miss.....yes it did get a chuckle out of all in the audience.

Well done! Dang, never knew you looked so good!

Well you could try contacting William Red Wake here at the Pub, he did the flag for our group (Pirates of Treasure Cove), and he's a fine artist.

Welcome! There's lots of us here that would be happy to help you out. You might want to read the 'Captain Twill' section (and past pages) to help you round out your character.

I finally saw the movie. Though it was a nice romp, it seemed to be really lacking in excitement. I have to say that if that supposed crystal skull was real, it would weight a ton! To me it looked like acrylic with crumpled up aluminum foil and some fiber optic strands along with some what looked like that angel hair stuff you use to put on Christmas trees. (Wouldn't be surprised if that's exactly what it is) I wish the movie had not put any more military stuff in, enough was enough in the first three. I think the script could have been done so much better. Anyone else notice besides me that the coin stuck to the skull was a piece of eight? I kept looking on the walls and stuff for pictures of C3PO and R2D2 as Lucas is known to do....didn't see any, but that doesn't mean they aren't there and I missed them. And wouldn't you know it, Speilberg just had to put aliens in the picture along with their flying saucer.
