Funny this should come up, I was just mining these for my web page. Mary's Photos include the best ones I've found. Somewhere out there is one of Michael going in that I really liked, but now I can't find it. I suspect that I may be missing one of the photo collections in my bookmarks, tho'.

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

There is Morgan Drake's photos from PiP/Fort Taylor Pirate Fest on mySpace... I think she posted many of these on Facebook as well. Which is where I stole the good picture of my mid-air tumble Mission... There are some good ones of you and Cousin Robbie in there as well M.A. d'Dogge.

My wife caught a bunch of good photos from the walk the plank contest as well... But you will have to sort through the over 250 photos she posted from PiP (out of the over 1200 she took to see them.

Ah, yes, it was Morgan's photos. I don't have her bookmarked because she has only put up 1/2% of the photos she took.

As he was about to face the gallows there, the pirate is said to have tossed a sheaf of papers into the crowd, taunting his audience with these final words:

"My treasure to he who can understand."

ahahahahaha.. oh that made my face hurt. Yeah Sorry.

Trying to get a bunch done at once, so I'm not posting 10 pictures at a time on 4 different websites.

I know you wanna see what I got :)

Get me a clone, it will get done twice as fast :):) Although, if I had a clone.... that'd be a whole other story.

I do have a bunch from the Plank Walking. There are honestly about 50 shots of Mad Dogge stripping into his "authentic bathing dress".

There will be lots more. Just probably not til after xmas. Sorry guys.

Love, hugs and rum.. lots and lots of rum... and apple pie

The Pyrates of the Coast are pleased to announce that the 6th Annual National Walk the Plank Championships will be held during Pirates in Paradise this year.

With the retirement of D'ogge as the champion, there will be undoubtedly lots of new competition this year to see who the next champion will be.

yes yes...tis true..as the first ever GRAND CHAMPION...(3-wins in a row)...and subsequent Retirement...to be "put out to pasture"...and used for breeding purposes....

i have relinguished the feild...or plank for that matter...to open the way for the next youg up starts....and volunteer meself as a possible guest judge, or possible "coach" or "trainer" for those next hopeful....

and of course...as i retain the ONLY title of GRAND CHAMPION...will await the day...when another will achieve a 3-in a row....then have a true contest...a contest of Champions

course that at minimum will be 3 years from now...at best.... :P

may the contest continue

He will return hopefully, but as a judge this year. Who better to judge others than one who has been judged three times and emerged victorious?

When there is another three-peater, they will then go for the glory of the first one to do it authentically... and die with honor and dignity in the depths of Key West.

LOL... afraid? Dogge? You afraid? NAWWWWW! :P

Hmm... if I make it to PiP this year, maybe I'll try for this Walk the Plank thing. I knew there was a reason why I practiced as the pool every day on the high and low dives walkin' the plank. :P

Yes, he will be a lowly spectator this year, or perhaps, if someone is smart, they can hire him out as a coach.

With his retirement, the field is wide open this year. He's set the bar pretty high, but Klaus was pretty good last year too. You just never know what the 6th Annual Championships will hold.

It looks like the WOLF and the National Walk the Plank Championships will be at the Pirate's Village and Thieve's Market this year instead of at the historic seaport.

Spectator viewing will be aboard ship and on the Mohawk as we bring the righteous contestants aboard and send them to their watery graves. Who will be ascending to the crown of Champion this year now that D'ogge has been retired as Grand Champion (until some wins four at least).

After five years of anxious waiting, I'm proud to announce that this year's championships actually have a trophy for first place and medals for 2nd and 3rd. And you get to keep it!

The same is true of the inaugural Tall Tales Competition and Freestyle Tall Tales Competition.

I know, I know, this is beginning to look a bit legit.

The official entry form is up. We will be limiting the number of entries this year so you want to make sure you're at the Truman Waterfront by 3 p.m. to enter this year's contest and earn the first trophy ever (suitable for mantling)...
