JohnnyTarr Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Dear Cheeky Actress, I am shur that whatever you wear would look great on you. The woman makes the outfit after all. Git up of your asses, set up those glasses I'm drinking this place dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Pete Straw Posted August 17, 2006 Author Share Posted August 17, 2006 JohnnyTarr -- we shall miss ye, but shall drink to your health in your absence. Let's see... one round to Johnny Tarr's health, another in thought of the absent Lady Barbossa, two more rounds have already been promised & accounted for other reasons.... at this rate, I'm not sure I will make it to noon! Cheeky Actress: I wouldn't worry too much about what ye choose to wear. The overall theme for the Faire is "Where Fantasy Rules." I saw a guy there the other weekend wearing a Darth Vader costume. My son was mocking people who obviously only wanted an excuse to carry a sword ("Your Renaissance shirt doesn't go with those jeans and Nikes, dude.")[/i] I myself will be dressed about 100 years inappropriately.... as mentioned earlier (elsewhere?) over two weekends at the Faire only one person questioned my anachronistic choice of garb -- and that was a food vendor whose booth was equipped with a deep fryer. Most people (and I mean quite a lot of them!) went out of there way to compliment me on what I was wearing. And if previous weekends are to be any clue, the place will be crawling with "pirates." = = = = = = = = As of right now, the weather forecast for Saturday calls for 40% chance of showers (with thunderstorms a possibility) and a high of 78F. The local weather guy (whose predictions I trust) says that any rain should end in the morning. The gates open at 10 AM. I'm keeping my fingers crossed...

Cheeky Actress Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 LOL! Thanks for the words of encouragement about my attire. Fear not, I am not going to look too out of place. I do plan to go was a lower class wench (stays looking more late 1700s). Heck, if I were in better shape, I would wear my Pakistani belly-dancer outfit. (Which by the way is period correct). I know that belly-dancers are (were?) big down at the Texas Faires for a while. It’s funny how some Ren Faires are snobby about their visitors (or as we use to call them up in Oswego, NY - “Playtrons,”) being dressed properly in period correct attire. Heck, it’s all about having fun isn’t it? So, let’s have a bit of fun! Member of "The Forsaken" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Sterling Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Aye neither Cheeks nor Rats should be hard to find... thanks to not getting kit done in time for them... they should both be part naked... As for Skittles and the First Officer... hmmmm, haven't even gotten the fabric yet...

Heck, it’s all about having fun isn’t it? So, let’s have a bit of fun! I can say on good authority, that belly dancers still flourish here in Tx. Though just because the title is belly dance, I truly wish some would not show so much of theirs. I am sure it has much to do with the heat here. Such adornments are much more tollorable in order to withstand the temps. ...Or lay these bones in an unworthy urn, Tombless, with no rememberance over them: Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like a Turkish mute, shall have a toungueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph...

Cap'n Pete Straw Posted August 19, 2006 Author Share Posted August 19, 2006 There is actually a belly-dancing demonstrstion/show at the Faire. Somewhat ironically, this is not on my "Must-See" list.

Capt.

Cap'n Pete Straw Posted August 19, 2006 Author Share Posted August 19, 2006 Revised forecast: The rain has all moved past the area. Small chances for light scattered sprinkles remain (Ha! I scoff at thee!!). Temps between 78 to 83. awesome. 'Tis Faire weather for a Faire day. I'm on my way..... "He's a Pirate dancer, He dances for money, Any old dollar will do...

Cheeky Actress Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 The Crewe of the Archangel Enjoyed a happy Saturday! With a slow start (delays with some of our crewe) we finally got in and had a lovely time. As you can see, here is our own Captain Pete Straw standing with the Archangel pennant. Cap’n Pete, it was a pleasure meeting you and spending time with you today. Those in our group take our hats off to you for spending a bit of time in our company. Such a good-hearty fellow with cunning wit and gracious manners! I do hope to make Port Washington next year…(yup! Checked the dates for 2007) and plan to attend, hopefully with our good Captain Sterling in tow. Speaking of which, Lady B., Johnny Tarr and Captain Sterling; we drank to your health and good fortune at the pub today. You all were missed very much.

Rateye Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 And to think they even made me go put me shoes on. Geuss they diddn't like (As Lilly said) my furry hobbit feet. THEY ARN'T FURRY! Should have stuck around Pete! We were besieged by a pair of shameless husseys... You would have loved the banter between our own Cheeky Actress and the "ladies" about proper usage of ones tongue and their advice toward our soon to be wed couple. Needless to say, it was a blur and me feet are killing me! Should have stayed with a half size bigger! I litterally had no sleep! Not a wink, that is until I took that nap in the afternoon... Then more beer! I still think we should have bound and gagged the parking Nazi, when he came up whinning about eating in the parking lot!! I actually just got back from going again... Them harlots must have slolen that legal work while I was making the... I mean petting the cat. It's a long story. Actually I went back and picked up another book Lilly had suggested and picked the brain of their surgeon, who has offered me some sites for study and has offered to send some more information and sources. I'm actually wondering about the 4th (day after the work day/ meet)I actually have off that Sunday.....? Should have been there captain! I have to say, we didn't really get crazy or nothing, but I really had a great tme with our bunch! This weekend was over due and well deserved!

There are no BLACKMAIL photographs of myself. Oh Cap'n Pete...do tell him that I was a 'good girl'! Alas, dear Captain Sterling, she speaks the truth. In all the excitement (as well as the stress dealing with Security) I completely neglected to obtain incriminating evidence of any kind. Perhaps more disappointing, I witnessed none that was not committed by myself. (And Cheeky Actress seems to have displayed restraint in documenting the overly friendly drunk mom that was sitting in my saved seats at the Pig & Whistle. "Sleep in the middle" indeed.) But Cap'n Pete, you did miss a bit of banter with the whores around 6 pm at the Turkey Leg booth. Very witty indeed! Believe me, I was sorry to leave, but I had to get back home to take my mother to dinner to celebrate her birthday. I know, my priorities are all screwed up. I barely made it through he dinner (and the two martinis....). "He's a Pirate dancer, He dances for money, Any old dollar will do... "He's a pirate dancer, His dances are funny...
