    That’s funny, we complain if there are too many people posting and also, when it’s empty ;P

    Lilith: damned time-zones! I often feel that when I want to play everyone else is away too!

    BAck now - just did bathtime :D

    RDPW: we two will have the same time zone again next year! ;)

    Booty, my tub is full of sandbox-sand!!

    I hope you decide to come to England Lilith - then we can meet up, and get the kids officially engaged ;) :D

    @Phil:
    .
    I don’t think many ships are built to be priate ships.
    But a fast tea-clipper sounds like an excellent choice to me.
    It will have a nice big cargo hold for our booty and be able to out run other vessels!
    .
    As soon as they rebuild it, I’m having another go!

    Were will you be living? We might actually meet ? I’d love to have a little get together some day. That would be great!

    Will you just leave me out of it, Ûž!
    I will be terribly seasick if you keep sticking me in the hold, you know!

  11. 51 Lilith♥ May 24th, 2007 at 3:43 pm

    RDPW & Booty: It isn’t clear yet, where in Germany we will live (or maybe even Vienna or London!), but being used to the US-distances here, both of your countries will be pretty close!! ;P

  12. 52 Ûž May 24th, 2007 at 3:50 pm

    If you don’t like being stuck in the hold. Where do you like being stuck!

    You DO remember Professor B♥♥ty prefers to stay on firm ground, manning (wenching?) the bar. She IS a landlubber (landlubster??), you know! Yarrrrrr!

    Professor Booty, I’ll give you some Dramamine to take. I don’t want you left behind on shore when we finally get our pirate ship! Besides, I have a feeling that the wenches will be running the ship anyway — let’s just say we’re not PMS-ing as much as (some of ) the pirates are right now!

  15. 55 Red DutchPasta Wench May 24th, 2007 at 11:59 pm

    Beth, of course we will, but we don’t want them to know that yet do we? So, shush, don’t tell them!

  16. 56 daqq May 25th, 2007 at 4:08 am

    Well, I’m guessing it was the Jehovists ! ;-)

    Hmm…..I think you may be onto something there!
    Everyone….tin foils hats on…..stat! (:))

    Or on with the kitchen sieves for those of that preference.

    PMS-ing?
    Private Messaging? :p)))

    I’ve just thought.
    There’s probably enough salvageable wood in Greenwich to make a bench.
    Probably not much more than that to be honest.
    It might be a bit scorched though.
    .
    I’ll probably need to quite a bit of rubbing down.

Purchase the Gospel

An elaborate spoof on Intelligent Design, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is neither too elaborate nor too spoofy to succeed in nailing the fallacies of ID. It's even wackier than Jonathan Swift's suggestion that the Irish eat their children as a way to keep them from being a burden, and it may offend just as many people, but Henderson, described elsewhere as a 25-year-old "out-of-work physics major," puts satire to the same serious use that Swift did. Oh, yes, it is very funny. -- Scientific American
