DAYTON, LAND OF STRUMPETS
An actual pirate showed up in Dayton, but she was a petite woman pirate, so we were not too nervous.

I see it takes Dave exactly 2 minutes to upload a picture with comment to the blog.

That pirate can shiver my timbers anytime.

Now we know who's been stealing all those "R"s.

Watch out, Dave - It's the petite pirates that can sneak into places your washcloth hasn't been!
(THAT would shiver your timbers!)

You're right Punkin'
Isn't that her peeking out from under your bazoomage in that other picture?
Posted by: fudtheman | July 23, 2006 at 11:06 AM
Yeah....she had a feather in her hat THAT night - but it tickled so much, I threw it away...
Posted by: Punkin Poo | July 23, 2006 at 11:09 AM
Punkin..... The feather or the pirate?
Posted by: Jazzzz | July 23, 2006 at 11:13 AM
Jazzzz~ Watch the innuendo. As I recall, that particular pirate's parents were there. They might beat you up.

Is that the third author mentioned in the Amazon listing - Greg Call? In disguise, of course. BTW, did it really take three of you author people to write one book? And who the H*&% is Greg Call? Is he hiding somewhere, letting you big names out to do strumpeting while he works away on the next book in the series? Inquiring minds gotta know!

Petite Woman Pirate would be a BAD name for the Wayans Brothers

I'm sorry I can't get the name right, but is it Estelle...?

What a great pirate outfit! Can I borrow that?
Posted by: Lisa Bisa Fo Fisa | July 23, 2006 at 01:19 PM
Pretty! Is she a blog-child?
Posted by: Guin | July 23, 2006 at 03:34 PM
Aha!!
Yes, we have an airport here- after all, the airplane was invented by people trying to get out of Ohio. (Decades later, somebody was so desperate to get away from Ohio that he went to the moon.)
And yes, I am going to todays strumpeting session dressed like a pirate. I hope I am right in thinking I may not be the strangest thing there (not counting Dave and Ridley).

Yes that's me- and no, my parents were not there. (I'm sensing that some of you have different estimates of my age. Let's just say I could buy my own rum.)

Ahhh, so you "don't set sail without the Cap'n"!

Sexy pirate - and she buys her own rum!?
MeThinks gifts or pilage would be better terms....

"Sexy pirate - and she buys her own rum!?"
I said I could buy my own rum. You know, because asking a lady's age isn't polite- and asking a pirate woman's age is dangerous, because we have swords.
Posted by: Estelle Chauvelin | July 24, 2006 at 08:17 AM
So, let me get this straight, you don't buy rum?
Then how do you drink mojitos?
Posted by: fudtheman | July 24, 2006 at 09:02 AM
She either doesn't drink -- mojitos, or otherwise -- or, she doesn't need to buy rum ... there's plenty of guys willin' to buy it for her ... merely ... observin' that she's an pleasant-to-look-at young lady ...
