Rumba Rue Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 May your swords always be sharp and your point never dull! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Matty Bottles Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Happy Birthday, Mate. "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

Capt. Sterling Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Many happy returns of the day! and many, many more to come "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/
Matty Bottles Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Matt, I got to hold some of your wares at the fort - very impressive. Not many folks can capture the lightness and liveliness of the original. Also, my name is Matt as well, so that's, you know, that's cool.

Ransom Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 A most Happy Natal day to you, Suh. Hope it is grand. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you. But if you're a good navigator, a least you'll know where you were when you died.......From The Ship Killer by Justin Scott.

Captain Jim Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Yet another Decemberist. We'll all celebrate together at PiP next year, mate. Merry natal day sir. My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
j8ksdad Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Happy birthday Matt! I'll eat when I'm hungry. I'll drink when I'm dry. If the hard times don't kill me I'll lay down and die. Rye whiskey! Rye whiskey! Rye whiskey I cry. If you don't give me rye whiskey, I surely will die.
Commodore Swab Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Happy birthday, now go out and donate some golf balls somewhere.
Mission Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 HB, 1MM! I think we need to form a crew and name our ship the December. We'll salute each other with scotch whisky and then throw our shot glasses into the fireplace. Then we'll be sorry because it will get cold if the shot glasses put the fire out. At least if we meet in Michigan we will. Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?" John: "I don't know." Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."
