Quartermaster James Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Welcome to Prosperity!! Home of the Barbecued Sea Captain. Good marketing! This could be a signature dish. Lure the public in to dine! Start with something like Country Captain, and add rum! Serve with Absinthe!
Dorian Lasseter Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 (edited) Hmm.... I see this as a perfect port; Put a bunch o' great guns on the island outside of the harbour...

Red Cat Jenny Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 way too fascinating... heres a scene brought to mind by that.. Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time...
Pew Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 mmmmmm . . Absinthe . . . , Skull and Quill Society , The Watch Dog "We are 21st Century people who play a game of dress-up and who spend a lot of time pissing and moaning about the rules of the game and whether other people are playing fair."
Mission Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Mmmmmm...art deco reaper lamp... 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."

Capn Bob Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 When are we going to start buying up land? As for me..."official" trade? I suppose maybe a bookseller of some sort...since I am, in this current life, a librarian...and *someone* has to supply the charts and celestial almanacks and what not... Or maybe a sugar planter. Not that I know a bloody thing about it, but after all, someone also has to provide the basic makings of rum. Where to live? Maybe someplace like, say...Bacon's Castle in the old homeland of Virginia...Aye, that'd be a pleasant abode for a humble bookseller. I ain't telling where I'd be getting the gold for it, tho... Damn, thats sharp!
LadyBarbossa Posted February 1, 2010 Author Posted February 1, 2010 Mission... You perfectly described Port Royal in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. :) Or at least Shipwreck Cove. I always thought Bora Bora would be perfect. But... now that I think about it.. it's awefully small... isn't it? Thank ye, Pew. Th' drinks helped. Oh, and fine place there, Bob. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
Rumba Rue Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 way too fascinating... heres a scene brought to mind by that.. Ooooh, I guess this is where I hang out....
Silkie McDonough Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 What do you do with a drunken surgeon? What do you do with a drunken surgeon? What do you do with a drunken surgeon? Early in the morning.
Mission Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Give him a computer and let him try to type about what happened on that miserable little 2/3 size keyboard? Silkie, your new avatar reminds me of Muftak the Talz. 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."
LadyBarbossa Posted February 1, 2010 Author Posted February 1, 2010 way too fascinating... heres a scene brought to mind by that.. Ooooh, I guess this is where I hang out.... Hmmm... Looks like Pew's Establishment, th' Ram's Head!! What we WON'T do with the Drunken Surgeon is NOT give him ANY of his Surgeon tools! Keep those bloody things away from him! I'm not kidding about the bloody part either. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
Silkie McDonough Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Silkie, your new avatar reminds me of Muftak the Talz. lol ...it is a seal with frost on it's whiskers not some Star Wars character.
Mission Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Yeah, I figured out that it was a seal (which looks like it has its head half in the water and we're seeing it and its reflection), but it reminded me of that character. Mostly because it appears to have four eyes surrounded by white fluffy fur. 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."
Silkie McDonough Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Drat ...now I am gonna have to find another because all I can see is Muftak the Talz. Blasted drunken surgeon. ...as to the drunken surgeon song ...somehow I thought Rumbas post about where she hangs out was Missions ...sorry about that Mission.

Ransom Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 I'd like one of those "Death in the Afternoon" drinks please. Nothing like champagne and the Green Faerie to get your day started out right. ...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.

Quartermaster James Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 I'd like one of those "Death in the Afternoon" drinks please. Nothing like champagne and the Green Faerie to get your day started out right. OMG! OMG! OMG! How have I never heard of this before!?!? I had to look it up to be sure it wasn't a brainchild of Ransom's fertile imagination. Can I order them by the pitcher? Or maybe just one of these and one Sazerac, to start...
LadyBarbossa Posted February 2, 2010 Author Posted February 2, 2010 OMG... th' Green Faiery strikes again! ***rolls a large cart, heaping with venison, turkeys, squirrls and tax collectors*** Hunting was good over at Sterlings, where do you want this lot? I need to head back for the second load. Animal Ooooo... right good hunting for ye, wasn't it, Animal? Don't fancy squirrel, Turkey I love but doesn't agree with me... and I'm not a cannibal... so, how much for one of the venison carcasses? Well, make that two? Perhaps a trade, with the remainder in gold and silver. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
