Cap'n Slappy Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 Just sos ye know! Yours Truly will be playing The Pirate King in Gilbert and Sullivan's "The Pirate's of Penzance" at the Albany Civic Theater in the sprawling metropolis of Albany, Oregon.

Captain Tito Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 Hey, break a peg, n a leg, and when the show's over, ye can break open a KEG!! <span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>Have Parrot Bay, will travel. WILL SHARE TOO!!!</span>
El Pirata Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 How about I break the keg with me fist instead and ye all can have a drink on the house. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Matty Bottles Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 *Looks at the keg he's sitting on, looks at EP's giant fist, yelps and jumps off* "The time was when ships passing one another at sea backed their topsails and had a 'gam,' and on parting fired guns; but those good old days have gone. People have hardly time nowadays to speak even on the broad ocean, where news is news, and as for a salute of guns, they cannot afford the powder. There are no poetry-enshrined freighters on the sea now; it is a prosy life when we have no time to bid one another good morning." - Capt. Joshua Slocum
LadyLeigh Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 I still be new here, but I'll wish you "break a peg" anyway, as i be really big into theatre.
Captain Tito Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 *EP breaks the keg and the whole cast yells DRINK UP ME 'ARTIES YOHO!!
