Ahoy mateys, please check in here at the unofficial Pirate Chapter of Free Republic if you were at Friva and saw the Pirate Invasion at least one time while at the Treasure Island Resort.
Even though I could spot some of you unsavory pirates from across a room, I didn't bother to scribble your screen names on any of my numerous receipts from Vegas.
The good news is that my camera's fine now. I just purchased shoddy batteries in Reno. IT FIGURES with a name like that.
I'll bookmark this thread and post here occasionally because Jeb Bush doesn't need me full time. LOL
I make a motion that we have no issues or ping list. What more could you want in a chapter?
If you had a bad day at the office, drop by the Pirate Thread and just try to get our undivided attention.
And, finally, I make a motion that we don't take any guff from the bandwidth police. We'll sink their battleship if they try anything.
An Historic Day - The Pirate Chapter thread is officially opened on this 20th day of August, 2002.

Look familiar? This will have to do until I get my film developed. This can be our unofficial logo.

It'd be nice for the pirates to get together again next year and maybe even on Treasure Island by St. Pete if Tampa gets the Republican National Convention in 2004! That would be kewl, huh?
You're VIP Pirates so drop by any time you need a break from the serious stuff. I will waive the pirate show requirement for you. FV

I'm looking for pirates, that's all. I had fun at Friva, flew to Reno Saturday and then came back Sunday afternoon to the Battle area. By the time I got back to Treasure Island from Reno, the freepers who were still there we're talking like pirates. Either they were really having a good time, or were just plain delirious from the heat. Sounded like a thread to me.

Ahoy = ping.

1:50am eastern? On Las Vegas time now, are we?
Arrghhhh, matey. Somebody is going to be a grumpy ol' pirate at work in the morning.
To: Diddle E. Squat
I'm a mercenary pirate and set my own hours for plundering and pillaging.
Yes, I'm still on Vegas time and I wondered why there was no activity at FR except FV. I was up until 3:00 a.m. LOL
Pirate for rent. Gold dubloons accepted here. arrrrrrrrrrrr.

Great jpeg! Have you seen the Pirate Invasion from the hotel side? You can feel the flames through the glass enclosure.
I'd would have liked to see an Algor or MacAuliffe lookalike walk the plank in the show. LOL

Not to mention Desi Arnaz, Jr...

Arrrrr, but you can't board with your trophies - they'd sink her, I'm afraid. Leave them at home and you can be the cook.
I have dibs on the crow's nest - that's where you'll find me.

Was that before or after I changed seats during the show? I know it was definitely after I got yelled at by the employee of the Treasure Island Resorts Hotel. PIRATES DO NOT RESPECT AUTHORITY!!!

I was right behind you when you moved up to take pictures. Bald, dark hair and beard, glasses, dry sense of humor. When the hotel wench told you to sit down I was sure you were going up the ropes with a dagger in your teeth...

You know, it's funny, but just thinking about movies set in Las Vegas is making me feel vaguely ill.
Especially the ones with Pia Zadora.
