RC, can you put the monster Terri thread url here on the Pirate Chapter thread? Check out the cute pirate dog above. Thanks, FV

[dixie sass]

Aye? How be ye? Whatcha been up to girl? Surprised to see this thread come up! I thought maybe I have been transported back a year!

[floriduh voter]

Doin' well. Couldn't make it to Vegas this year to visit my baby brother. My t-shirts are in Vegas at the factory waiting for me to add to my web site.

The site is a work in progress but page one is definitely hoppin'. I got acquainted with California conservatives and the recall. I do California updates every Monday.

I moved in February and really like my new place, once I adapt to cathedral ceilings upstairs but no wall space. LOL How'd they do that?

I'll dedicate this year's Talk Like a Pirate Day to all the Women Pirates then and now. I'll be shoving off now. How ye be? Still a wench?

[dixie sass]

Well, actually it depends on which definition you mean! Lol...

Aye matey!

Imagine my surprise when I turned on the radio and Lars Larson announced it was Talk Like a Pirate Day on September 19th. Then, when Joe Scarborough did a segment on Talk Like a Pirate Day, I realized it was more than a fluke.

Scarborough mentioned the official web site: talklikeapirate.com. I think I'll go check it out. LOL

TALK LIKE A PIRATE DAY IS THE REAL DEAL. SEPTEMBER 19. I'll bump this ole thread to the top every year to say hi to the FRIVA pirates. (what did I learn at Friva? the main thing that sticks with me was being informed, "you are not normal". Now to me, that's a compliment!

[dixie sass]

Lol, had never heard of "Talk like a Pirate Day" before! But I'm game! Every year on the 19th!

Normal? What's that?

[floriduh voter]

I haven't a clue what normal is. I just sent myself a freepmail by mistake. It was nice hearing from myself though. LOL

Yep, Talk Like a Pirate Day is for real. Anyone can join the Pirate Chapter and then I'll do another ping & bttt in 2004!

[floriduh voter]

Ahoy! Freeper overboard. Talk Like a Pirate Day is for real. talklikeapirateday.com or without the day. FV

[floriduh voter]

Looks like everyone but you, me and Bob J got banned from Free Republic OR they were PINOS. (pirates in name only).

Here's the official site: http://talklikeapirate.com/

[dixie sass]

Oh, thank heavens I'm not the only one to do that! Or even post to myself by mistake!!!!

[dixie sass]

I do believe it! We all need a thread were we can relax and giggle every once in a while!

arrrgh me lass.

Shiver me timbers, batten down the hatches and stand by fur a blow! Them wind's you've bin gitten down there 'rrr sum mighty rough ones.

TS

[floriduh voter]

Time to review the building codes again? I didn't have any fuel for my vehicle for Charley even though I live between two national gasoline chains. As far as wind and rain, Frances hit Tampa Bay the hardest and sufficiently scared everyone in the METRO AREA into Home Depot to buy plywood. Mine's still up but it's getting a little claustrophobic.

Maybe next week I'll find someone to take out all the wood screws... It's getting to be like when people leave their Christmas lights up all year. Some folks have both.

Except for low lying surges in St. Pete, Ivan barely caused any rain or water here.

[Interesting Times]

Cool stuff you got there, dudette.

Oops. I mean, AAarrghh! Avast and belay, all ye scurvy seadogs! No prisoners!
