Guess who is going to the annual Renaissance Fair?  And guess who is 
dressing up?  And guess who gets to talk like a pirate today, even though 
ITLAPD was yesterday?

I'm leaving now.

I know what those fairs are, but I have no idea if they have them here. 
Maybe they call them something along the line of Burgundian Feasts or 
Medieval Fair. Don't think they're quite the same though.

Got pics?

To see a private profile you have to be a friend of mine, but to use the 
site, I think you have to register?  You can at least see the profile 
snapshot right?

No, it tells me "You must log in to see this page." I don't trust it one 
bit. It's the same thing the Germans told the Jews back in the days. All 
you need to do is register, really, that's all. Well, they ain't foolin' 
me!!! What am I supposed to see anyway? Anything that a text-only 
browser can understand?

See the picture with Neppie with the "Renaissance Fair Make Up"? If you

Hmm, I don't usually sign up for anything that REQUIRES me to sign up first, 
without seeing what's there, either.  There have been some (several) 
security issues with FaceBook - mainly with the apps you can use with it, 
and privacy.

Oh, and, "Don't mention the war!"

Nothing, it was just a picture, in ref to what D and I were discussing.  So, 
that would be a "no" to text only.

Yes, it's so difficult to decrypt, especially when it practically gives 
itself away with the name.

Something seems to have happened to your Thunderbird max line width 
settings. Since I am on nerd mode these days, I can only read whether I 
remember the fireflies I stole from the drunk pirate in the Sc!

I don't seem to remember much of it though. Perhaps I was sober whilst 
playing Monkey Island. Though..hold on, are we talking about the first 
two games? Because in that case... I never played them!!

I do remember fireflies that had to be caught in CMI. Made up the stealing it 
from the drunk pirate in the Scumm bar bit. It seemed to fit your character more 
that way. The drunk pirate may been Guybrush Threepwood.
