Zorg

Atthefaire is a good place, but its been taking off some of the smaller faires around the midwest. Too bad since I do like them also.

What have they dropped that you know of, M? I'm curious since we run one o them small midwest fairs?

I know a number of them have gone south in recent years.... :angry:

Hmmmm....the Pirate reality show, eh?

I thinks we can manage this....

In fact, I thinks we DOES manage this....

um, Hey Royalist, kin we use yr boat? :) There seem to be enuf of us film and video production types about on this board to make the whole thing happen.

:) :angry:

Oh, this is funny!

But Imagine what we could do with "Cutthroat Island" :)

That tower hanger be a nice piece.... :)

LOVE birthdays......

::Genteel curtsy:: Thank ye kindly, gentlemen.

I wish I were 21, gents. T'was my 30th bday. Rather harsh day... but .. hopefully in due time, I be making that up. Just means that we celebrate heartily all year long!

An' as to the rum... ahhh, had a fine feast Saturday night at Red Lobster... with a Bahama Mama.. heavy on the rum, mind you!

An' Morgan... ::shakes a sword at ya:: Ya come back next year... we'll celebrate in grand pyratical style... gaow-roon-teed!

Merry gets all the rum her deathly blackheart desires. From my private stock! :) Now... mind ya'll... I've been devilish enough to keep Barbossa from this... & a few of these bottles here be from Barbossa's private stock! ::taps side of nose:: Hehehe... aye, he'd skin me alive if he knew I was back in his rum & wine again. ::looks at Jack; finger to lips:: Shhhhh.... I'll share with the crew of the Pearl as well as those in Tortugas (your forum). An' not to worry... I'll have it stocked again before he knows it be gone.

Thanks all...

30?! Yr a mere tyke, y'ar.

Waitll ya gets some REAL mileage like some of us

happy birfday, lass :)

I just had Email from John Sandhofer with the festival saying the tickets will be available monday (May 10).....

Had some good communication from John Glass, who coordinates the renactors at Hampton. I'd written him regarding the possiblility of bringing down a sort-of composite crew as we'd talked about with the Morehead festival before it was cancelled. He wrote back:

Aye lad!

Glad to have you . For reenactors with costumes accurate to early 18th Century English pirates, we provide dorm rooms at Hampton U. , a couple of free meals, and some participation in the events. Others ( renfare, fantasy, captains Hook and Morgan) are welcome , and will have a good time, but will watch most events.

Ball tickets ( fri night ) are $ 25 for all of us.

Please let me know how many are interested and I'll reserve the rooms- we have the space

(endquote)

Okay, so refresh me momory: Who be goin?

Z :)

However, I thinking of taking Zorg up on the diet book idea.....

Not to mention my new best seller:

"How to get in touch with your inner ARRRRRRR!"

(now on books on tape)

Z :)

I think ye be right, Huntin' hawk. tha' seems 'bout right. I'm on many boards for many different things rangin' from Star Wars to costuming, dogsledding to anime,

Ye mean t' say this pub ain't bout dogsleddin? Boy, am I lost!

Yes, and please stop the cross posts to alt.spankme.com, willya.

gets confusin....

Ive got to agree, even when the discussion gets political here, it's civil.

maybe because we all have cutlasses.....

Ooh, sorry bout the multiple posts, but here's their hats page, tricorns from about $17...

As above, try:

http://www.jastown.com/hats/hb-902.htm

these seem to be pretty well made.

Ye can also get felt hat blanks from a number of theatrical sources for as little as $12. Steam em and pin up the brim and ye gots yrself a cocked hat, what we calls a tricorn now. :)

Aye, I agree with the both of you. Had this discussion at the Escondido Faire with the pirates of the Black Sail guild. They all also agreed that Barbossa was by far the better pirate over Jack. Don't get me wrong, Jack is a very cool character, funny and yes, even cute, but Barbossa just is the better pirate, hands down all the way! I also find him much more sexier! He has a charm all his own....mmmmm......

Arr! Hope fer th more mature pyrate :)

I been thinkin of getting one of the .77 harquabus barrels from therifleshoppe.com and stocking it with a tiller as a swivel or hailshot gun.

cheap option fer my smallish boat.

Is this the lock you mean?

BTW, is it just me, or does the pistol Barbossa's holding in the pic look incredibly huge? A sort of nuclear pirate pistol.

Actually a lot of the dragoon pistols are that big. Me new doglock is 22" long and essentially 20 guage.

boom :)

a monstrosic fumigation chamber that wasn't popular and died out as quick as it came

possibly at the same rate as the patients....

Wasn't that MoonCussers?

Very cool and well laid out site. Thanks

Good ta have ya back, Capt.

(pipe the lad aboard, somebody)

Indeedy, nice work lads.

This has got to be one of the easiest to use forum systems I've ever run accrost.

Did we BOTH miss the drink?

Happy somewhat late bday lad :)
