Capt Grey Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 Avast me hearties! One o'me shipmates told me ter steer into this here cyberport fer some unique jack o'lantern designs - includin' Captain Jack Sparrow! Look fer yerself: http://pumpkins.goateestyle.com/movies.php I be makin' the Jolly Roger meself. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
TalesOfTheSevenSeas Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 I see that Johnny Depp made not one, but TWO pumpkin designs!! There is an architectural organization which holds a contest among their architects to construct 'buildings' out of pumpkins. I remember one year when I was a kid, I did Cinderella's pumpkin coach, using one of those Breyer plastic horses and a Barbie doll (OK so I was'nt always a pirate but I've changed me ways, haven't I?!!!) -Claire "Poison Quill" Warren Pyrate Mum of Tales of the Seven Seas www.talesofthesevenseas.com
Capt Grey Posted October 21, 2003 Author Posted October 21, 2003 Hehehe. You sound like me, Claire. The only reason I had Barbies was so I had something to ride my Breyer horses. And if you still have those horses, they're worth quite a bit these days. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
Thomas B. Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 Ok, now i'm gonna have to go get some more pumpkin's and start over :)
Capt Grey Posted October 21, 2003 Author Posted October 21, 2003 Ye can never have enough jack o'lanterns, lad. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
Scupper Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Me thanks Grey me love. Ye be reading me mind. Every year we carve pumkins and i usually do the same old thing. Wanted to be piratical this year. Scupper "That's the navy for you. Rum in the scuppers today. Blood in the scuppers tomorrow."Thrist is a shameless disease. So here's to a shameful cure!"Loyalty, honesty and directness are traits I admire. Insecurity, snipes and disrespect I will not tolerate in the least."
LadyCabbett Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 I must just be lazy.. my kids did not carve any this year, they decorated them up. Now I dont have to worry about rotting pumkin smell nor smashed pumkins in my yard.. well unless the kids take the neighbors pumkins and do that to me!
Cap'n Coyote Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Ye can never have enough jack o'lanterns, lad. That be Captain Jack o'lanterns, Lass. Rumors of my death were right on the money.
El Pirata Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 I see that Johnny Depp made not one, but TWO pumpkin designs!! What is Edward Scissorhands and Jack Sparrow? Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Capt. Westyn Elizabeth Roberts Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Okay, so this is not a piratey pumpkin, but I think you should check out ebay. They have a Phantom of the Opera jack o'lantern made out of one of those fake styrofoam-ish pumpkins! The last time I looked, the bidding was up to $51! I guess I know what my new hobby will be this time next year!!! Those pumpkins are easy to carve. How do I know? I carved a big hole in the bottom of mine to stick my head through. Yeah. I know...that sounds a bit odd, but hey...it's a costume piece. I was a pirate last year, and now that POTC has come out, it's taken some of the fun out of dressing like a pirate, cause I know 100 other folks will be dressed the same. And, I'm always a pirate at heart. Arrgh! Capt. WE Roberts "I shall uphold my indignity with the utmost dignity befitting a person of my undignified station."
El Pirata Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 While I don't like the styrofoam ones, the plastic ones seem to last a good long time. I have one I bought 6 years ago and it's still alive and kicking. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Zephyr Posted October 26, 2003 Posted October 26, 2003 Hehehe. You sound like me, Claire. The only reason I had Barbies was so I had something to ride my Breyer horses.And if you still have those horses, they're worth quite a bit these days. Same...but I did like to sew for them and built them some great houses.... with furniture.....carriage with harness...the troll dolls lived very well too. I never did figure out how you were supposed to "Play" with them. I think my first Breyer horse, the American Standard Bred...was the reason I learned flat saddle first (owned western types...a Machiavellian morgan-quarter buckskin...darling (appearance) trail horse with a pony mentality (wicked).......)
Zephyr Posted October 26, 2003 Posted October 26, 2003 Ye can never have enough jack o'lanterns, lad. That be Captain Jack o'lanterns, Lass. Most Excellent
Mad Kestrel Posted October 27, 2003 Posted October 27, 2003 Dang! Now I have to go buy another pumpkin, since I'm sure my young'un won't want to carve Johnny Depp into his pumpkin... Mad Kestrel Privateer #9, IFoRP Captain of the Thanos (Fairhaven, CRF) But why is the rum gone? - Capt Jack Sparrow
El Pirata Posted October 27, 2003 Posted October 27, 2003 Remember Halloween is fer everyone, yer kids need their stuff and the big kids need our stuff. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Saucy Kate Posted October 29, 2003 Posted October 29, 2003 That Captain Jack pumpkin'll be on my porch! Capt Grey- I had Barbies to, well . . . kill each other. They were always either on a pirate ship or in a murder mystery. I was a precocious child. :) And my Ken doll was so lame that I wrapped him up in bias tape and made him a sarcophagus. He's still there, in a box with all my other Barbies.
Captian Wolfy Wench Posted October 29, 2003 Posted October 29, 2003 I definetly have a Johnny Depp pumpkin on me porch, bu' it's Edward, not Captain Jack. I do have a Jolly Roger pumpkin I'm gonna carve, too, so I'm not without me own Captain Jack O' Lantern. Captain Wolfy Wench
