El Pirata Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 Ya know, you ought to put a tape recorder or some audio thing that says "dead men tell no tales" whenever he is touched. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
the Royaliste Posted October 21, 2003 Author Posted October 21, 2003 Quite a bonnie idea, Pirata!..Aye'll work on that for next season!..Would be a shocker to those who pass 'ole Jeff inna dark!..Might even increase his already heavy wench load....Hmm, 'O.K.,... 'Let's be givin' up that "black book" now, Jeffie Boy!'..........

YARRR! The Oktober be silent now! Just call me "REDD!"
TalesOfTheSevenSeas Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 An EXCELLENT idea lads!!!! Or just a microphone and a speaker hidden in Jeff's barrel, then he could make random comments at wenches who pass in the night!!!!! Now this could be tooooooooo much fun!!! -Claire "Poison Quill" Warren Pyrate Mum of Tales of the Seven Seas www.talesofthesevenseas.com
BoneHunterLane Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 Since ye're a wee too far to drive to after work (eh... maybe 8 hours...) I'll just suffice ter suggest ye better be takin' some pic's to post. Are you going to have movable ghosties on invisible filament so the ghosties jump up at people? That's always a bit o' fun at halloween... Have you any of those 'spooky noises' cd's to set off when someone touches somethin' that triggers em? (We used to have the front so scary that no one would approach our door :) ) Hope ye' have a great sail... Ooooo, hey - instead of regular flavored lights, are ye' going ta use 'death lites'? (Sort of greeny/blue flavored?)

Lucky Penny Hawkings Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 oooh. Just remembered. I have a week to put pants on the Unded Jack Sparrow puppet. And reglue his leg. And all that stuff I didn't do after Ojai. Shouldn't take long. He was so popular at Ojai I couldn't leave him behind for this trip. "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful. Hate me because I am robbing you, tossing you overboard, and stealing your ship!" -the only thing more dangerous than her.. is her needle-

El Pirata Posted October 25, 2003 Posted October 25, 2003 And he might be easier to haul along on an SF cable car than a full-sized dead pirate!! You're not refering to Jeff are you? Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Cracked Carrie Posted October 25, 2003 Posted October 25, 2003 I have a week to put pants on the Unded Jack Sparrow puppet. Ah, now, lass...what HAVE ye been doin' with puir Jack that deprives him of his breeches, an all, not to mention loosening his leg? That were some exercise ye put him through, make no mistake.
Lucky Penny Hawkings Posted October 26, 2003 Posted October 26, 2003 I have a week to put pants on the Unded Jack Sparrow puppet. Ah, now, lass...what HAVE ye been doin' with puir Jack that deprives him of his breeches, an all, not to mention loosening his leg? That were some exercise ye put him through, make no mistake. I should really explain meself before anyone gets th' wrong idear... Let's start with Cap'n Jack's pants. When I initially put him together, it was on a whim and somewhat late in th' evenin'. I made wee Jack's vest, his shirt, gave him a sash an hair an' all..even a wee bandage on his hand...but no pants. Just was too lazy! Now....as for 'is leg...well, that started up at Ojai. For some reason, poor Jack's leg didn' wanna stay attached t' his body, an' kept fallin' out at random intervals. It made for some funny moments, though... All goes well, the wee Cap'n should be ready to terrorize SF formally at th' end of the week. M'deliberatin' makin' 'im a wee coat an' tricorn... As for Royaliste's thought o' givin' im a hook hand....hrmmm... "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful. Hate me because I am robbing you, tossing you overboard, and stealing your ship!" -the only thing more dangerous than her.. is her needle-
