You may call me Dirty William Rackham, but I'd prefer that you didn't. I told them I was clean, but at least I've been reunited with my long lost pirate brother, Red Rover--er, Roger.

I be MAD WILLIAM BONNEY, which means I'm related to me3dia, tacodog, mss, starvingartist, vbfg, meep and Woolworth's -ooops- Woolcott'sKindredGal. I tell ya, these Bonneys be multiplyin' like rabbits - or Bunneys! Need an arrrr pun, quick: What do pirates study in college? Liberal Arrrrrrs!!! The highlight of the pirate questionnaire was following up the "Parrots?" question with "Penguins?" Umpteen years ago, I put together a "Computer Pirate" costume that included a pocket protector full of tiny toy swords, white shirt and socks, a black eye patch and, instead of a parrot on my shoulder, I had a penguin. And that was YEARS before Linux. No wonder I'm Mad.

From even the highest yard-arm in eve'r port o'call, them what be dead or alive knows me as One-Eyed Jack th' Dalek-Lad, a salty scurvy dog of the shores o' Skaro. Who among ye be willin' enough t'get drunk an' set sail wit me had best be akeen that I walks th' deck wit fear o' no man, tho' th' stairwell be a harsher ill... An' ye, wendell, be it? Th' legacy o' th' silicon corsairs dates back to when th' Apple II was afloat...folks what had a shareware app known by 'Skeleton Key' t'would unlock copy-protected 5.25 inch boot floppies and plunder th' swag fer themselves an' crew alike. Such wasn't to th' liking o' the landlubbers, so th' trade were called 'puter piracy an' thus th' legend be born... But arr, y'knew that, didn't ye?

robself: I knew sooner or later one of my relatives would be asking for money. Smart Dalek: In me old C:-drive farin' days I belonged to a Commodore Users Group that had one member in bad standing who proudly stripped the copy protection off everything he could find - he resembled the lead singer for Men At Work, but then, it WAS the 80's. Let's face it, if they didn't expect to be Pirated, why did they call it Commodore? t r a c y: A pirate named Grace? I don't know what's worse, ending up in Davy Jones' Locker or Grace Jones' Car. (better do another Arrrrrr pun, fast!) What's a Pirate's favorite show on HBO? Arrrrrrrliss. (I never said pirates had good taste) Who will the Pirates root for in the big game, Navy or Arrrrrrmy? (All this Arrrrrr-ing is clearing my lungs out better than my prescription inhaler: Arrrrrbuterol!)

In days of old, when ships were bold Just like the men who sailed them And if they showed us disrespect we'd tie them up and flail them Often men of low degree and often men of steel Who'd make you walk the plank alone or haul you 'round the keel Hoist the Jolly Roger! Hoist the Jolly Roger! Hoist the Jolly Roger! It's your money that we want and your money we shall have! Of all the pirates on the seas the worst of them was Blackbeard So damnable a fiend from hell he was the one they most feared Any man who sailed with him was taking quite a chance He'd hang them from the gallows just to see if they could dance (ha! ha!) Hoist the Jolly Roger! Hoist the Jolly Roger! Hoist the Jolly Roger! It's your money that we want and your money we shall have! [/Adam and the Ants moment]

~shoots off her flintlock~ Iron Mary Cash! Glorious sister of Bloody and Dirty and Grace! And I only eat Arrrrrrtichokes. And now for a little ditty-- sing along you scabby barnacles! In days of old when men were bold and condoms weren't invented, They wrapped a sock around their c*ck, And babies were prevented. What exactly is a YO HO? It's a chocolate cream-filled cake...No wait! That's a Ho Ho.

Ahoy mateys and pass the grog to Iron Anne Kidd.......no, it just doesn't work. First off anne is such a dainty name and plus I sound like some sort of 70's jeans patch fanatic. Oh, better far to live and die Under the brave black flag I fly, Than play a sanctimonious part With a pirate head and a pirate heart. Away to the cheating world go you, Where pirates all are well-to-do; But I'll be true to the song I sing, And live and die a Pirate King. For I am a Pirate King! And it is, it is a glorious thing To be a Pirate King! Hurrah for the Pirate King.

Where's Irontom in this thread? btw: Blackbeard lives, and he has a pretty good website with a treasure chest of information, including pirate myths, information on pirate flags, and the pirate code of conduct. Another interesting tidbit: the "dead man's chest" in the Yo Ho Ho song is an island in the Caribbean; this place, evidently.
