Ahoy all ya scurvy doggs....

   Me ships finally broke free from the ice and I be preparin it fer journeys unknown. Aye, it's been a while and me jobs been keepin me busier then a raid on the English fleet, but the time is now for a new year of plunderin. I hopes ta be makin port at many o the pirate outins. Ave ta see how much gold I can muster up ta take me. Seems it aint as cheap as I thought. But me hopes are high. Just waitin fer the warmer waters and then me sails ul be at full. Hope all ya made it through the freezin months.

See ya on the wind, 

Ok, how be with me e're as I be countin the days afor the fest? I also be seein a lot more pierate activities round the realm as of late. That be a good thin i'fn all share in the takins. Savey!!  Kepp yr sails ta the wind and yer belayin pins backin up yer cutless. Just be followin the link below, I says...

I be waitin fer Pirate Fest in a month. Who else be going ta the one in Wisconsin. I be bringin me rum ta share. Much plunderin ta be ads I says. May  ave ta pick me out a good ship ta take back with me.

(This explains our plight)

Seems it be the time ta get sailin fer the new year of plunderin. At least sos I get me own share o the takins. But, by the looks o things, I finally sees why all us other pirates be getting way less these days. The picture be speakin a lot bout why, since this biggest pirate be grabbin all he can fer emself. Kinda ironic (damn, that be a big word), a pirate be pilferin from all O us tryin ta make an honest livin in this place. But, the picture I says, suites em well ana speaks fer itself. Just prepare ta be boarded by a new cap'n soon. I fare we all be no better. What say ya!!!
