    Collector of various faire group pins.
    Smuggler extraordinare.

    If you wake at midnight, and hear a horse's feet,
    Don't go drawing back the blind, or looking in the street.
    Them that ask no questions isn't told a lie.
    Watch the wall, my darling, while the Gentlemen go by!
    Five and twenty ponies, Trotting through the dark -
    Brandy for the Parson, 'Baccy for the Clerk;
    Laces for a lady, letters for a spy,
    And watch the wall, my darling,
    while the Gentlemen go by! --from A Smuggler's Song Rudyard Kipling

    Music Sea shanties, the rhythmic slap of the Bosun's whip, Flogging Molly, Gaelic Storm, the sound of the waves. Oh, and Nine Inch Nails.
    Movies Yes, when I am ashore I watch films. Many films. And I'll quote them to ye if ye like.
    TV No telly aboard the Gangrene--the electric cords not be long enough (but I do like Dr. Who, Buffy, The Office, Star Trek, that kind o stuff).
    Books Books not only burn well, they taste good too. And lots of fiber. I do read them all first though.
    Likes Pyrates, rum, pillaging, BBQ, booty, feathers.
    Dislikes Ninjas.
    Hobbies Pillaging, plundering, swordplay--the usual.
    Vices I prefer to call them quirks.
    Virtues See hobbies.
    Heroes Anne Bonny, Mary Read, Salome, Lilith, Boudica, Morgaine, Delilah...you get the drift.
    Here For Friendships

    Back from PyrateCon!

    Wednesday, April 23, 2008, 03:26 PM CST [General]

    What an amazing trip!  It was great to meet those of you in person that I did, and I wish I had encountered all of you!  Here are my pictures--there seems to be more of just New Orleans than of the Con, but that is because I was having too much fun around the pyrates to whip my camera out.  Whipped other things out, but no camera. ;)

    St. Louis Pirate Fest

    Thursday, September 13, 2007, 04:05 PM CST [General]

    Well, we are heading out tomorrow at the nice fresh hour of 4:30 AM for St. Louis.  If we are driving 4 1/2 hours, we are going to be sure to do some other touristy stuff, so making it a 2 day trip.  We have done this 2 day trip thing to St. Louis before, for faire, but we still have places to visit--and most of them are free! 

    Don't know if anyone here is planning on going to PF on Saturday, but if you do, please say hi!  I will be in a green coat, being escorted about by a 6'4" pirate (of course) in red.  Hard to miss.

    Two New Movies

    Friday, August 3, 2007, 01:02 PM CST [General]

    First one is with Jack Black and Cary Elwes, it is called Ye Olde Times.  Only a few blurbs about it on the net so far, but it is about rival shows at some Ren Faires.  Comes out in 2008. 

    I *just* saw a preview for this one, but it comes out on the 17th!  Good or bad, it has Colin Firth, so I'll love it. :)  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462396/
