Caribbean Pirate Month Continues

© Henry Ramsager

Nov 28, 2006

Arrrr. Wait. That's been done. We started with an "arrrr" last month. Instead, let us go ahead and inform you that pirate month has been extended.


So many promises; so few expectations met. In the last blog entry, you were promised derring-do accounts of Captain John Coxon, Sir Henry Morgan, Blackbeard, Pierre Le Grand, Black Bart and at least one bad-girl female pirate. As of today, we've only delivered articles on Henry Morgan and Blackbeard. So where are the other pirate accounts, you may well ask. Now wait a minute: before angrying up your blood, take stock of the facts, matey. Morgan, whose exploits proved to be far more interesting and numerous for merely one article, was stretched into three rather longish articles. You also got Blackbeard. That makes four --or five, actually, if you’ll be kind enough (as I'm sure you will) to throw in Sir Francis Drake, whose article appeared just before the start of our pirate month.

Anyway, here's our remedy because we're so sweet and always looking out for your piratical needs. We'll extend the pirate month (which has proven to be very popular among readers) into December for at least a couple weeks more.

This should hopefully satisfy even the most bloodthirsty of pirate lovers.
