My invitation to you, fellow pirates

[Taffy Saltwater]

Just in case my fellow pirates hadn't caught my announcement in Queen Bonnie's Realm, I am pleased to cross post the following:

By Decree of Good Queen Bonnie of the Kingdom of Glen Livet, the Royal Order of Landsharks is now open for membership.  We are privateers who have looked at 40, are happiest at sea and dangerous on land, and who call Sir Jimmy of Buffett our most well-beloved minstrel.  Younglings will be known as "Guppies" until such a time as they reach majority - at 40, of course.

Please PM me with your persona name, age, and e-mail address if you are interested in joining the ranks of the Royal Order of Landsharks.  If you will send your name & snail mail address at the same time, I will be working on a badge in the near future. 

Fins Up! - Taffy Saltwater, Landshark No. 1, Township of Margaritaville, County of Lager, Kingdom of Glen Livet

Fins up!

[Blackjack Roberts]

At a moment like this, I can't help but wonder,
what would Jimmy Buffett do??

He'd say:

Pour me something tall and strong.
Make it a hurricane, before I go insane.
It's only half past twelve, but I don't care.

It's five o'clock somewhere.

[Taffy Saltwater]

Ah, Blackjack, will have to admit to typing under the influence of mango margaritas this afternoon - but was too lazy to haul the Frozen Concoction Maker off the fridge, so ... on the rocks! It is five o'clock somewhere, after all!

[Rage]

Taffy,

I just sent my PM to you. Didn't get the part about the snail mail, I will get that to you as well.

[Blackjack Roberts]

I be pretty sure I sent mine in....but I was sitting there typing me vitals to Taffy.....

.......And that's when I first saw the bear
He was a Kodiak lookin' fella `bout nineteen feet tall
He rambled up over the hill
expectin' me to do one of two things,
Flip or fly, I didn't do either one
It hung him up!

[Rage]

Sweet looks like I am Landshark #28!

[Welsh Wench]

Can't you feel 'em circlin' honey?
Can't you feel 'em swimmin' around?
You got fins to the left, fins to the right,
and you're the only bait in town.

~~Landshark #24

[Taffy Saltwater]

Fins UP, Landsharks!

[renren]

Black Anne Roberts, at you service,Capt!
I be Guppy # 32!

[Lady Amy of York]

I'm Landshark #34.  Yea !   So where are the margarita's ?

[PapaGnome]

Mine has been sent and I do hope you will accept me...

Well the sunrise'll bring on the
sleep that's escaped us and
ev'ryone's off to their bed.
There'll be huggin' and sqeezin',
a little pleasin' and teasin'
and rubbin' of each others' head.
So won't you dream on comrades;
seems nothing affects you,
nothing, no reason nor rhyme.
That's cause ev'ryone here is just more than
contented to be living and dying in three quarter time. - JB Nautical Wheelers

[PapaGnome]

WooHoo...LandShark #35 Fins Up...!!!

Scol

[Taffy Saltwater]

Had to buy new margarita "fixens" today.  For some reason I'm stuck on mango margaritas - not as acidy, maybe.  Fins UP!

You know what to do: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNrM7DnYz4Y

OK a funny Buffett story-

My cousin Karen lives in Baton Rouge and is a parrothead too. She introduced her daughter Amanda (the same girl who fell off her platforms and broke her ankles, ya gotta love her!) to St Buffett's music.

Well, Karen told me at the concert that someone superglued some inflatable dolls together and let them go off during 'Why don't we get drunk...'
Buffett laughed so hard he had to sit down.

Karen just shook her head and said, "I TOLD Amanda not to do it!"

FINS UP!
