Build pirate snowmen.

I have to say it! THANK YOU BLACK SYREN!!!! That map you made is absolutely incredible!!!! I want to get some dowling and hang it up! Well of course I knew it was her, she requested me! LOL! I swear a picture is forth coming...

1. The nicest thing about the future is that it always starts tomorrow. 2. Money will buy a fine dog, but only kindness will make him wag his tail. 3. If you don't have a sense of humor, you probably don't have any sense. 4. Seat belts are not as confining as wheelchairs. 5. A good time to keep your mouth shut is when you're in deep water. 6. How come it takes so little time for a child who is afraid of the dark to become a teenager who wants to stay out all night? 7. Business conventions are important because they demonstrate how many people a company can operate without. 8. Why is it that at class reunions you feel younger than everyone else looks? 9. Scratch a cat and you will have a permanent job. 10. No one has more driving ambition than the boy who wants to buy a car. 11. There are no new sins; the old ones just get more publicity. 12. There are worse things than getting a call for a wrong number at 4 AM. It could be a right number. 13. No one ever says 'It's only a game.' when their team is winning. 14. I've reached the age where the happy hour is a nap. 15. Be careful reading the fine print. There's no way you're going to like it. 16. The trouble with bucket seats is that not everybody has the same size bucket. 17. Do you realize that in about 40 years, we'll have thousands of old ladies running around with tattoos? (And rap music will be the Golden Oldies!) 18. Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Corvette than in a Yugo. 19. After 50, if you don't wake up aching in every joint, you are probably dead!! 20. Always be yourself because the people that matter don't mind, and the ones who mind, don't matter.

Very nice. Many people who have seen me within the last few months will tell you, I'm quite happy. Even though I have days of pain in my hips, I still smile and be happy and many are surprised that I have such a good attitude. Why not? My gift is my smile at people It makes my heart sing when I smile. To pass on my happiness to the highest steeple. I even smile at the smallest child. In a world of chaos and uncertainty I bring light to the faces of many A simple flower of truth, Is my smile to all of you. Blessed Be. Rumba Rue

Well my tree may not look totally pirate, but I've got goodies on it just to help the 'look'. Here's the tree: That's some of my award winning Celtic needlepoint on the wall. Here's a pirate ship near the top of the tree: More ships/mermaids/pirate party lights: More party lights on the tree: Well the Enterprise is a ship: A different kind of present under the tree: LOL!

Yup, and here in north county San Diego, Dixon Lake has paddleboats. What say ye Oderlesseye?

OMG!!!! OMG!!!! WOW!!! OMG!!!! I know who my Secret Santa is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!! I've got an island with my own Rumba Rue lagoon! Course my other half got his name spelled wrong - BOATS, not Boots! Still dang funny! He's happy he got Bosun's River which makes up for it -LOL! This truly is a one of kind piece of artwork!!! AWESOME!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! I'll get a picture of it ASAP to show everyone.

Makes you kind of wonder where he pirated the items...ok confiscated items from illegal trade.

Funny stuff! Watched a few of your others too, amusing. Welcome to the Pub from down under!

Welcome to the Pub! I'm afraid the only role playing I do is 'real life'.

To a great guy who has the guts to join Pirates of Treasure Cove. Of course we won't tell the kids it takes guts.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Aye a wee bit o' Drambruie would suit me fine. Welcome to the Pub!

Oh my what wonderful answers to my questions! And especially you Foxe, that was great! Ah it takes an Englishman to know the country! Badger, you gave me exactly what I was looking for, thank you! Bo, thank you for the cargo information and route info. This will truly help me, as I would prefer to be as accurate as possible when it comes to certain things.

Sounds good, but I tried to order the small amount and was told my credit card wouldn't work - yes I have the $$$. I noticed you prefer PayPal, but since I don't go through them, I guess it's not going to happen.

In doing some research for a story I started writing way back before I got into pirate stuff I need some help, now that I'm older and have learned so much from here. I want to go back and start re-writing much of it, but I have some questions that I can't find answers to. Hoping someone here could help me out. 1. What type of English accent was prominet in Portsmouth? 2. How long would it take to sail from Portsmouth, England to Jamaica? 3. What was the area of the hold called where the animals were kept? 4. How many holds would a regular sailing ship have? 5. What were the usual dimensions of the Captain's cabin?

Aye, so ye be a forgin' yer way I see. Welcome to the Pub! Rumba Rue

Aye, I know o' ye from elsewhere. Welcome to the Pub! Oh an' ye can swing through my riggin' anytime! Rumba Rue

Cute. Good for kids.

Curious to know what it tastes like. Is it bitter like Starbucks and other coffee places? Or smooth like a good Columbian type?

From the depths of the hold, the surgeon held his knife ready to cut the ......item into a piece and tasted it and it was good! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
