Deacon Frye Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 DEPP BUYS OWN ISLANDJohnny Depp, star of the film Pirates of the Caribbean, has bought his own treasure island in the sun. The movie star has forked out £2m for an island hideaway for his family in the Bahamas. The mile-long island, Little Halls Pond Cay, has six secluded white sand beaches and a central lagoon surrounded by exotic palm trees, The Sun reveals. The tropical island also has a private harbour and staff quarters. Depp, 41, is expected to share the hideaway with his girlfriend Vanessa Paradis and children Lily-Rose Melody, five, and Jack, two. The actor, who has signed up to a sequel of the blockbuster film, has his main home in France. He starred as Captain Jack Sparrow in the movie, which also featured British star Keira Kightley. And they say crime doesn't pay!
Bilgemunky Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 In light of this recent occurance, I feel the need to respond. I'll be posting this at bilgemunky.com later today: -------------------------------------------- On open Letter to Johnny Depp written on behalf of all guys. Dear Mr. Depp, First, we'd like to congratulate you on a lifetime of exceptional cinematic achievements. Second, we'd like to humbly request you please COOL YOUR JETS ALREADY!!! Look, you did the whole 21 Jump Street thing with the cool 80's hair, and women swooned. You did the Edward Scissorhands thing, and our girlfriends and wives asked us, "why can't you cut MY hair like that?" Then you came along with Captain Jack Sparrow, and we had to learn to wear eyeliner and sway like drunken swabs in a vain effort to keep up. And now, now you've gone a bought a FREAKIN' TROPICAL ISLAND!?!? With six white sand beaches, palm trees, and a lagoon??? For the love of Pete, what the hell are the rest of us supposed to do to impress chicks? It's like you're flying to the moon and back, and we're supposed to somehow keep up with pogo sticks. Oh, the humanity! If you have any compassion at all, any concern for your fellow man, then you'll stop raising this bar ever higher. Just STOP already. And while you're at it, if you could find a way to look a little less attractive (develop a hunchback or something) that would also be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Every Guy on Earth that isn't Johnny Depp editor's note: Although I wrote this spiteful letter on behalf of all mankind, I'd like to point out that I don't believe a word of it. Johnny - I grovel before thee and hope to be invited to visit your island very soon. -Bilgemunky -------------------------------------------- Unfortunately I seem to have misplaced Johnny's address, so I'll just hope he stumbles across this online. If any of you bump into him while at the 7-11, be sure and give him a copy, OK? I AM BILGEMUNKY

Iron Bess Posted July 9, 2004 Posted July 9, 2004 Whoa!! You all might be over look'n something.... Might be the flag of Willy Wonka or Sleepy Hollow that he be hoisting over his isle. Thar be more the this lad then just pyrate mates! May be he aquired this isle for something other then plunder. Maybe privacy... which will be gone soon enough with maps and such like pointing the way. Still.... a neighborly sail by is harmless. If'n you drop rum off as you go by. Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!

Black Hearted Pearl Posted July 10, 2004 Posted July 10, 2004 Disney's Island be Castaway Cay, not much for plunderin though. No money accepted on the island ceptin at the Bahamian post office. I found the pictures via Hello Magazine out of Great Britian. Fine investment considering a certain Movie company will be needin some tropical location shots for two upcoming sequels, wouldn't ye say? ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind.

Paisley Posted July 10, 2004 Posted July 10, 2004 whassup with johnny??? is the bargain shopping islands??? i found an online ad for the island....asking price was a bit more than 2 mil... Little Hall's Pond Cay Island Exumas, 45 acres, US $3,500,000 6 private white sand beaches ring the island, which also enjoys deepwater access. An interior lagoon lies in the centre of the island, and approval has been sought and obtained to open the lagoon up to the sea, thereby creating a protected harbour area. A thatched-roof cottage with bedroom, living room, kitchen and bathroom is present on the island, as well as a Tiki beach hut, generators for electricity and a water runoff system for fresh water needs. B@$&@%$!!!! i hate being a middle class pirate "This calls for a particularly subtle blend of psychology & extereme violence." -Vivian, The Young Ones
