Firethorn Posted September 18, 2004 Posted September 18, 2004 In honor of "Talk like a pirate day", the kids and I are about to sit and watch POTC for the umpteenth time, much to the dismay of their mother. :o Pass the popcorn ya filthy bilge rats!
Christine Posted September 18, 2004 Posted September 18, 2004 I was thinking of doing that too, but it's finding peeps to watch it with me. Friends and family roll their eyes at me, "not again!" Hey, last time I watched it was on July 9th for the 1 year anniversary, so come on people!
Hawkyns Posted September 18, 2004 Posted September 18, 2004 Watching it now while I sew a new deerskin doublet for Gwen to wear at MDRF. Hawkyns Cannon add dignity to what otherwise would be merely an ugly brawl I do what I do for my own reasons. I do not require anyone to follow me. I do not require society's approval for my actions or beliefs. if I am to be judged, let me be judged in the pure light of history, not the harsh glare of modern trends.
Firethorn Posted September 18, 2004 Author Posted September 18, 2004 Just read in the paper that a local nautical gift shop is having alittle get together for TLA pirate day. Their giving away some plunder too, nothing big I imagine but I'll have to take the kids over to check it out. Also, just came back from a family party where their was quite a few who knew about talk like a pirate day, at least now my wife doesn't think I'm the only nut in town. I took the opportunity to tell them about the POTC interactive theatre coming to a near by town and they loved the idea and all plan to attend, and their going to drag my wife along. We shall see.

Hopin' ta get our message across on Fox Sports (in Minneapolis, anyway). Wish us well, mateys! Shiver me timbers! Arrrrgggg!! Well, Red Bess n Meself an our brace o cabin boys did indeed see the Twins keelhaul the Orioles 5-1. Sorry t'all them Balto fans out there, but the wind be favourable here in MN this year. Maybe take us all the way t'the Series, we're 'opin! There were a fair number o' folks who seen us in our tricorns an' eyepatches an' such, who yelled out "Talk Like a Pirate!" an' th' like. Then there be those who thought we musta got lost on our way t' Pittsburgh. Don't know if we made it onto th' broadcast, but we made our point. And instead o' cheerin' durin' th' wave, we shouted "Yarrrrrr!" It were a great way t' spend a Sunday afternoon. the Fool's Gold Pirates

A clap of thunder fer t'day.. and SPLICE THE MAINBRACE (fer no reason at all!) (btw-- drinks are on me fer the time being!)
