I’m old, cranky, excentric, set in my ways ect. I have no use for lollygagers, himhawers, naysayers nor yes men! I am a viking, red hair, blue eyes, tall, etc. Some Irish got in there too but so what? “If God had not invented whiskey the Irish would rule the world!!”.
If there are and dues/fees needed I’m sorry about your luck, the check is in the mail!!
Arrrrg!! Aye matey mind your P’s & Q’s.
Get up Jack, John set down!
I feel more like I do now than I did when I got here!

“Fifteen men on a dead man’s chest,
Yo Ho Ho and a bottle of rum!”
Sounds like you’re the definition of pirate to me. welcome aboard…
aaarrrggghhh!!!
Hey there Dave;
So you’re a Lithuanian pirate? Perhaps I was absent that day too when they were teaching about the great Lithuanian pirate armada. Oh well, one lives, one learns.
If I am not mistaken the only real requirement for being a pirate is wanting to be one. So welcome aboard. Oh you must attend one of the Florida Fish-ins before you retire to the happy hunting grounds.
WE have one big one once a year and many little ones. Seems we need friends to go fishing with. Come on down, (hint the cooler the weather here the better for fishing) Unless you want big fish. Tarpon are doing pretty good right now.
Harold
Marco,
…and a meaner, nastier lot you never will see!..AAAAAARRRRRRRGH!!!
Hey there Harold;
I’d be glad to join the Florida fish-in pirates if you have it right at Christmas/New Years. I did feel a sort af comaraderie with you and all the attendees at the last fish-in in that I, while you were all there, was consuming copius(sp)(lottsa) amounts of rum in absencia. I held up my end (barely).

I’d rather be in Wyoming!
Well then, matey, hie yerself coastward and bring a heavy rod. When the red tide gets blown away again, the fishin should be fine. Until then, we’ve rum!

When the dawn came up like thunder
Marco, I drink heavily and cast big flies with a big rod to big fish in a crashing surf. So that makes me the first Lithuanian pirate! Just ask Flats Dude
never forget about us fresh-water pirates, maties. we consume the rum, and cast the flies. the only difference is, our “big rods” are 5 wts, our “big flies” are #10, and our big fish are your bait. relativity is a wonderful…
as far as i know, the only requirements for being a pirate are the attitude and desire to be classified as such. and to be perfectly honest, if you really want to be known among this salty lot, you must be mad, and therefore, youll fit right in…like me 
.
Hey;
“desire”,“attitude”, “rum”, “mad”, seems like I feel a kinship to all of these. Aahhemm, I thing I feel an aarrgghh coming on. Stand aside matey!
Dave: This would make me the first Ukranian pirate- spreading slowly but spreading nonetheless.
Mark
PS: Alas,seems like my normal signiature " I’d rather be in Wyoming" would be counter productive here .

And whats REALLY scary, is that I’m starting to understand " I feel more like I do now than I did when I got here".
It’s almost plain as day to me now.
Mark

I’d rather be in Wyoming!
Marco;
I can’t stop laughin’ about your response!! Got tears in my eyes and can’t say no more!!

Wait for the warm water folks to sail a ship in your waters, with a 1 weight, then you’ll be a feared…aaarrrggghhh…
Spelling and Grammar not subject to judgement… 
…avast all ye landlubbers…out West,the true pirates bludgon their prey with none other than 9’ bamboo…& the true pirate imtroduction happens on the fabled waters of the 3-River get together in Idaho…where the rum flows, DG dreams of ugly waitress’es (wakes with pardner’s dawg), Z yodels(Gawd help em all) & newbies come away, scarred for life, threatened with divorce, fishless & other wise…reek of said beverage…AND still navigate un-chartered waters!!!
“…so many fish, so many flies…do I have enough time?”
So you want to be a pirate, eh? Sounds like you better get yourself a pirate name. Enjoy!
