Jib Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Who might I see at the 2012 Port Washington Pirate Festival? http://www.portpiratefestival.com/
Duchess Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 I was hoping to try for it, however, it's looking unlikely as my course during that three week period is rapidly filling up. Not that I'm complaining too much.
Mission Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 Are you teaching these days, then? Gunsmithing? Physics? Trolling? 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."
Duchess Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 Physics and math. I'm doing consulting on firearms and ballistics. The trolling lessons are community ed.
Jib Posted April 6, 2012 Author Posted April 6, 2012 Too bad Duchess. I would like to have met you in person.
Mission Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 You and me both. She is elusive. 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."
Duchess Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 Well the feeling is mutual! Ships in the night or something...ships with misdirected navigators I am left to assume.
Mission Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 I am elusive? I always tell people which events I'm attending. Port Washington is even within driving distance, but I have the impression I would fade into the background in my garb. (If I were to go, I'd probably just bring the hat and wear street clothes.) 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."
Jib Posted April 11, 2012 Author Posted April 11, 2012 Mission are you saying that you want attention?
Mission Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Of course! Nah, I always feel a bit out of place at an event that focuses mostly on fantasy garb. As my journals rather jokingly reference, when I do get noticed while amongst the non-PC I get called things like "colonial boy," "Quaker Oats Man" and "revolutionary war guy." It makes me self-conscious. I can do self-conscious without any added assistance (or knee pants.) 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."
Duchess Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 I was fairly certain if I made it this year I was going in the Ottoman Empire outfit. Also out of place.
Red Bess Posted April 12, 2012 Posted April 12, 2012 Well, Jib, you can count on Sea Rover and I being at PW this year. Ladies in Scarlet: Piratical Art and Accessories
theM.A.dDogge Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 we ...... the Forsaken .....shall be in attendance again this year with our Tavern, Tyburns Last Drop....on top of the Hill Mission, if you ever wanted to attend and set up round our Tavern, im sure we can help out with getting "NOTICEd" while still staying within more historical guidlines.....as you may recall...we have a tendency to get loud...HA!
Mission Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 You guys are going? Just out of curiosity, would this really be a surgeon set-up type event or not? I have the impression that it's more of party-style than living history. 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."
theM.A.dDogge Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 correct on the partystyle.....but we still set up like we do for the Put-in-Bay.....Guild of St Michael and another group also attend to lend some HISTORY and EDUCATION to the event.....then we ourselves join the Festivities no camping allowed tho, it a straight up HOTEL event.
theM.A.dDogge Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Just let me know....you can come play with us...always need a Barber!
Jib Posted April 14, 2012 Author Posted April 14, 2012 See Mission you have plenty to do! I'd be willing to help you if you wanted to act out pulling a tooth or some type of common surgery for a little demo. Fake blood, screams, the whole thing. I am an entertainer after all! It will be nice to meet so many of you!
Jib Posted April 14, 2012 Author Posted April 14, 2012 Well, Jib, you can count on Sea Rover and I being at PW this year. Excellent!
theM.A.dDogge Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 well then, make sure everyone Stops on By our Tavern on the Hill and INTRODUCE YOURSELF!!!.....would be lovely to meet many face to face once't in awhile!
Jib Posted April 16, 2012 Author Posted April 16, 2012 Consider it done Maddogge! Besides then I can compliment you in person on your wonderful photographs!
