I just spent the last few days writing about space pirates, so I'm in the right mindset.
Though I don't know if space pirates say "Yarrr".
They do if I make 'em, I suppose.
Tasha Yarrr.
I missed an "h", didn't I?
Smart alecky dwarves...
Heh, I brought the rest of the Kenshin manga and polished it off. The main bed spread did great, the other one was not too happy with even their big washer. I'm gonna line-dry it and then see about scrubbing a couple weird spots.
I need to get stamps, I'm starting in on the thank-yous. No phone calls from anyone yet today.
Heh, well, it was an experience all right. I'm just hoping things aren't like that here... there at least seem to be jobs though there's a lot more embedded programming jobs than .NET or Java programming and I really don't want to get pigeonholed as an embedded programmer. I think it'll be easier to work from home and get contracting positions in the future with the higher-level work I want.
I have lots of stamps here at work I can bring home.
about 46 two cent stamps and a bunch more 37 cent ones that I need to use up anyway.
Oh, great. That saves me a trip down the street. I need two envelopes too if we do not have some here for the marriage license request.
Nope, don't have any.
Argh! Not again, maties! :^)
OK, here's a pirate question for the day, 'cause I can't figure it out.
What's the proper term for a group of pirates? Hoard doesn't work. Gang doesn't work. Crew? Isn't there another word? There should be!
Band?
ship-load?
A gaggle? ;~)

You scored as Captain Jack Sparrow. You are definitely quirky and often mistaken for mad but if anyone is truly paying attention they can see there is method to your madness. You try really hard to be bad but in the end you tend to do the right thing.

Course it could be a passle.
*Ponders the name Passle O'Pirate for a Nanowrimo character.*
Yes! That's it. I couldn't remember, and it was driving me bonkers!
Heehehehe. Just call me Jen the Thesaurus.
Or Jen the Sore-Handed. I've managed 6 thank you notes so far and at this rate it will take me weeks.
