Just spent a week hiding out in the woods with a bunch of people who were not really pretending to be pirates
. Oddly enough, I probably had the most actual pirate cred among the group, having been running rum across the border the same day that I arrived
.
Some poor fucker brought a handle of Old Grand-Dad to the camp which we had to dispose of. It's a testament to the perseverance of the human spirit that the bottle was already half-empty when I got there one week into the event, but with one day left before packing up, we needed to figure something out. Enter
(e:dragonlady7) and the #1 invention of the year: The Old Granddadtini*. Using several cans of Dr Pepper, a few bottles of sparkling cider, a fair amount of sour mix, and a smattering of triple sec, brandy, Mountain Dew, and anything else we needed to get rid of, she bent the laws of space-time physics to make Old Grand-Dad palatable --nay, delicious-- to enough people that we finished the bottle in only a couple of hours. The bartender was offering free upgrades to the Ballsacktini, which someone jokingly ordered and inadvertently received. Upon finding out, he drank the whole thing out of spite.
Another night, one of the tiki torches we used to light the road got busted and, with the help of a rubber band and a bottle of Stella, turned into Best Invention #2, the Beeki Torch. It earns points for majestic splendor, but loses points for practicality.
Deciding that there were too many Daves in camp [two], we founded the House of Daves. Our coat of arms [still under development] is Dave rampant sinister, Dave drinking dexter, beeki torches supporting. We have no constitution, but we have a number of amendments that start at number three because one and two seemed too important to use right away. I guess it doesn't matter because I can't remember them anyway. We also have the House of Daves Ladies Auxiliary which historically predates the House of Daves itself. And, using the closest item available [a monk-shaped dildo], we dubbed a knight John Henry David of the House of Daves based on his outstanding service to the Ladies Auxiliary [back massages].
Thus was a good time had by all. I'm glad I have the weekend to recuperate.

- People would stop by our bar and ask for some ridiculous *tini drink. The bartender on duty would remind them that this was a pirate bar, and thus lacked things like Midori, Malibu, &c., whereupon they would ask for a Sex on the Beach. Hence the name.
Face Off was a great Movie, what are you talking about? That being said I haven't seen him in a movie in a long time. I like him because he brings that odd ball sense to a movie, I love that one I forget the name of it when he is at Alcatraz.
In Terms of Acting I have to admit most Actors are Bad. Yes You Heard me say it most actors are bad. Let me explain that think of any big name actor.................. Think of every movie you have seen them in or a preview even ............... Now think of how they talk and give lines ............................
(dots are supposed to give you time to think)
Guess what every actor (ok most) all sounded and looked the same. If you like or don't like an actor you like the way they hold them selves and talk and all their manierisms if you don't like someone you don't like them for the same reason.
You Can't blame that on the actors only though. Most movies have actors play themsleves playing a character. Yes there are some exceptions but that is pretty much true most of the time.
Get ready for the sequel "I've Gotta Hand It To You"
I like Cage. I think he's accepted some really terrible scripts in recent years though.
And Face/Off is one of my favorite movies!
