BluePuppy Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 I've just joined this forum because I'm interested in getting into more historically accurate pirate activities. :) (And yes, I've liked pirates since before the POTC movies =p) I'm moving to Baltimore soon and I've been reading about the interesting history in that area so it's all very exciting. I'm currently in Kansas, so there hasn't been much (anything) to do. I've got a pirate-ish get-up that I wear around sometimes, but it's made out of a cheap bustier/corset, a dress of mine, a skirt, any one of my random peasant-like shirts, and boot covers. And while it looks neato, I'd like to keep pushing it into something more faire worthy. ANYWAY, sorry for all the rambling, thanks for reading, and I'm looking forward to hanging out here. :)

BluePuppy Posted June 30, 2007 Author Posted June 30, 2007 I was reading Captain Twill and I'd love to find some of those books everyone's talking about. I'm sure it'll be easy once I move. :) I was reading the boot vs. shoe debate, as well =p I'm not sure I can give up wearing boots =p haha but yes, it's a pretty neat sword to be... plastic. my friend's son broke the point off of it, so now i have to fix that... it would probably be better to just grind it down until it has a new point... (to mad jack, i'd like a bit of irish whisky myself)

Jacky Tar Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 Welcome BluePuppy! Mayhaps ye'd like t' tell where ye got moniker. Thank ye fer the ale, lass.
BluePuppy Posted June 30, 2007 Author Posted June 30, 2007 haha, nicely done on the message, shipwreck john :) and to red cat jenny! as far as my name goes, it's just a username i use alternately with another one. I've yet to come up with a moniker for my "pirate character" but i might use that as a base, now that i think of it... are we allowed to have different display names on this forum? i hadn't checked. in case i DO make up a suitable name, i'd like to change without re-registering =p
