hey, I skipped like a mad thing (327 posts), so I'm just wondering if we've talked about the pirates?

Hee. I might give your daughter 20 bucks for a half cup of chocolate chips. Mmm. Leif is too cute.

Also, I miss Ellen, too! The BRQG always makes me nostalgic.

Also, herding dog stories are all cute. Ours, while definitely a mutt, is probably mostly Aussie shepherd too, so he looks longingly at other peoples' sheep. He tries to herd the free-range cattle when they come through our yard, but they just look at him. We need to find more for him to do.

Also, I have coffee. Coffee is good. This whole being up and at-em in the mornings is odd and off-putting. But I'm getting so much done. I suppose this is how normal people do it, huh?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Are rocket launchers part of the Pirate Code?

Ellen briefly popped up in the VM thread a couple weeks ago!

Hmm, I'm totally willing to get spoiled for VM for a chance to post with Ellen again.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

They are for the Dread Pirate Rambo.

yep. I was getting ready for work this morning, CNN on in the bedroom, and heard the word "pirates". I was like, WTF? I was very amused, especially since they just outran them.

I'm a bit surprised there was a cruise ship in an area known for huge piracy problems.

See, I'm still surprised there's such a thing as "huge piracy problems". In my silly little sieve, pirates are the sort of people whose ships have sails, whose weapons are swords, "yo ho ho and a bottle of rum" and the like. I mean, how long do you think the Dread Pirate Roberts would have been able to keep the identity scam in the internet age?
