Just thought I'd share my pirate name with you all - Lieutenant-Colonel Hairy Legs Might need to change this one

Oh wine!!!! Our last/first cruise was march 2006 and I was about 3 month pregnant (and still pregnant) and couldn't drink.
And after "boy" is born (1.5 months to go....), if all things go well this time, I STILL won't get to drink
Oh well...one or two taste at our Palo lunch and suppers, if timed right, might be slipped in!!!

The wine tasting sounds like the place to be on the Magic. I'm mostly into whites, but an occasional Merlot or Chianti (minus the fava beans) might slip in too. We'll definitely be checking that out.

Has anyone done the Beer tasting? Do they have a good selection?

 

[michaels_mom]

I have not done the beer tasting, but I think there was martini tasting and tequila tasting sessions too - mmmmmm, martinis

Hi all,
Please e-mail or PM me with your Pirate name, if you have one, for a sign I am working on. Melissa, I will change yours if you want me to, though LT-Col Hairy Legs has a ring to it don't you think.

Here is what I have so far:

Caropooh, my beloved DW, does not like the font I used for the Headline. I am not particularly fond of it, but I don't like the other pirate font I have in such a large size. What are the feelings of the rest of the group? I will also be searching more for different fonts, but as I run a Mac, I have fewer options than those who speak Windows.

Aaargh - Mac...
Not crazy about the font, but if you have no other good options... what can you do??

Hey there MM - if you don't like your pirate name, just run it again, it will give you another one. It's not very originial, I'm afraid...

Although, I kinda agree that LC Hairy Legs does have a ring to it...

I knew I'd find something for you! This site below (replace the dotcom) talks about how to get the Pirates font. You can download fonts for free. I do agree that the font on your sign is somewhat hard to read. But - I LOVE THE SIGN!

I am Cannibal Tanya the Terrible. If you knew me, you'd find it somewhat fitting!

Thanks Tanya,..ah, Kim. This site wasn't downloading to me yesterday. Today it is.

Here is an updated version:

 

[alanapapa]

For those who did not the BlogThings Pirate names try this one:
Pirate Name Generator

It had some good ideas for DDs:
DD12 is PIRATE SUZY THE HATLESS

DD7 is PIRATE AUDRA THE OFF-WHITE



I might change to:Keel-Haulin' Rupert Jones

 

[michaels_mom]

I like the poster! Great job! I guess I'll stick with the name - for now

 

[alanapapa]

I be glad ye all like me poster, arrgh. I also be glad yer keepin' yer name, Melissa.

 

[mark_story]

OK. I was missing out on all of the fun.

I re-did my pirate name. It's a tad more disgusting, which makes it perfect.

I hope you will have a costume to go with this persona.

I hope you will have a costume to go with this persona.

Trust me - NOBODY needs to see that!!

 

[alanapapa]

Where did we all go?? Is everyone enjoying good summer weather, or just watching tv or surfing the web ?

Hope everyone is having a great weekend, DW, DD7, & I will be taking DD12 to GSCamp tomorrow for a week. DD7 went two weeks ago.

And Johnna, I will abide by wisdom in regards to your DH's Pirate Persona.

Sorry I've been away for a while. I have been scouring the islands of the South Pacific for native tribes in which the act of cannibalism is more socially, er, acceptable.

And I'll also let everyone know that, for those of you who are literally counting the days like I am, Tuesday signifies the passing of significant milestone:

199 DAYS UNTIL THE CRUISE!!!

We're under the 200-day mark then, which for those of you Founding Fathers of the thread (Alanapapa), 199 sounds a heck of a lot better than 497.

Well, off to watch "Silence of the Limbs -- I mean, "Lambs" -- again.
