I thought only the captain had to go down with his ship

[nevadablue]

I think you should use one of those fake/plastic Falcons. Waterproof...

Ya'll got to stop talking about this captian going down with the ship stuff... Duane is starting to get a bit jittery. :D
And yes saintpeter, you do have to get a parrot!

 

[woodsroad]

I like the plastic parrot suggestion. But you could forego the bird completely if you're willing to adopt another pirate trait, like missing teeth, peg leg or chronic syphilis.

I could take the dentures out, and go with chronic flatulence, but it looks like I'm going with the plastic parrot You know I'm going to have to actually buy one now, don't you?

Oops. What kind of boat was it?

addams- Thanks for the update. I would have thought the seacocks would have been the first inspection, saving a sinking and haul out! But, what's done is done.....
And, Dan, you were certainly fetching in your youth!!

 

[didimauw]

This has to be the strangest thread I've seen inn a while. So I'll just sit back and try to take it all in... :crazy:

I'm still lookin' pretty good

 

[jpmcwjr]

You're not as scary as the fellow on Luther who plays an infirm psycho killer in S3E2! In fact, you have a down right friendly visage! (British dentistry??)

 

[woodsroad]

A haircut would help, I suppose.

 

[jpmcwjr]

Maybe you're a candidate for one of those make-over shows? (If they are still doing them.)

 

[Chasing Embers]

Looks like the child of Nosferatu and Austin Powers!

I am so proud. I've seen threads that grew, evolved, twisted, devolved, blew up, compressed and grew up all by themselves. I just was never the father of one. I have tears in my eye. Eye patch on the other. Pirates that we all are. :D

 

[woodsroad]

Sorry about that.

It's been so much fun following this. ::

Are there a couple of guys on the bridge there, or is that just gear?

It's kind of fun, isn't it? Watching everything go to shit in a handbag?
You make a semi-serious post and then the loopier members of this clambake take it completely sideways. Dan offers a pix from his college Med cruise and then his current meth-addled Philly self, StPeter threatens to buy a plastic parrot and Duane evokes Austin Powers.
Welcome to the forum, bub. You're a made man.
