Blimey, but this same thread had pages and pages a few years ago! Guess we had a few more scurvey scallywags aboard at the time. Maybe they all jumped ship???

Now that you mention it Captain some of our scallywags have jumped ship - Laz, Lorenzo, Pooter  :'(

Where are those guys when you need a few good pirates  ???

Happy International Talk Like a Pirate day to you.  I saw an article about it just this morning on MSN.

I think you-all should come to Oregon and help the folks here break a record for the USA


This was in the Sunday Oregonian

Portland Pirate Festival misses the world record but tops the U.S. mark

I staggered around school talking like pirates today , what with no school on Sunday ...

alot of kids with eye patches ...no swords , daggers or grog to be seen ...kinda funny ...kids from 4 to about 15 argggging and saying aye aye to everything ...

next week at book fair we will all be comic book super heroes or villains all week long ... maybe I can talk them into being Pirates at spring book fair ... I got me trusty skip the SS Gray Wolf terror of the Giles County Agri Park that we used at Cub Scout Day camp a few years ago ...she needs taking out again
