Ahoy, Mateys! Do ye know what month it is? That’s right. The month of April. And like every year we’ll have a “Blackbeard’s Birthday Sale” coming up. So stay tuned. Now, ye may ask, why do ye have a Blackbeard’s birthday sale in April? (Well, actually I hope ye don’t actually ask that question, ‘cause…
Ahoy, Mateys! The Cap’n here with his favorite subject: the beard. Last week, the Cap’n was jawing about weird beard tidbits from around the globe and apparently many of you swashbucklers weren’t aware of them. Hence, the always thinking Cap’n (especially after a couple of bottles of rum) has decided to continue in a similar…
Ahoy, Mateys! The Cap’n is here to talk about his favorite subject: the beard! What else did ye expect? Comparative Philosophy? The Cap’n only has one philosophy – the philosophy of the beard. And the Cap’n loves to hear himself expound on that particular subject. Okay, in general the Cap’n loves to hear himself expound….
Dia dhuit, Mateys! Conas tá tú? No, the Cap’n’s blog scroll page isn’t broken and he also isn’t (completely) drunk. This is Irish. Now, ye may ask why is this here pirate Cap’n suddenly speaking Irish? Well, matey, St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner. Needless to say, we’ve got a St. Patrick’s Day…
Ahoy, Mateys! Ye may have heard yer lady pirate exclaim at some point: “oh, no! I’ve got split ends!” And then ye may have thought to yerself: “what’s the lass talkin’ about?” We are men! We are manly men! We are pirates! Certain things just go way over our heads. Ladies and lasses (should ye…
Ahoy, Mateys! Now, as ye surely know, today is Ash Wednesday. And that means one thing – Mardi Gras has come to an end – always a very sad realization for us pirates who enjoy carousing, drinking, and flirting with busty wenches. To make ye buccaneers feel better, the Cap’n has a Mardi Gras story…
Ahoy, Mateys! You know what day is comin’ up. And if ye don’t, the Cap’n is here to remind ye – ‘cause if ye forget, ye know how yer lass is gonna react, right? (Hint: hide yer sword.) So, swarthy swashbuckler, Valentine’s Day is next week. The 14th of February… quickly, mark it in yer…
Ahoy, Mateys! We’ve been getting emails about the chinstrap beard. Hence, the Cap’n assumes some of you fearless marauders are thinking of taking the plunge… or the strap… as that may be. Other pirates may still be wondering what a chinstrap beard is. A chinstrap, in the strictest sense, is exactly what it sounds like….
Ahoy, Mateys! ‘Tis the season… the cold one. Winter be upon us. If ye have a beard and live in a not-so-temperate zone yer a lucky pirate, cause yer beard will keep ye warm. I’ve even heard swashbucklers swear up and down the canal that their beards grow more quickly in winter. (Sorry, lads, it…
Ahoy, Mateys! ‘Tis the season. The season when every pirate and their grandmother writes about the past year. The highs. The lows. The never-forgets as well as the forget-it-quickly-if-ye-wanna-keep-yer-sanity. So as not to be outdone by some landlubbers, we thought we’d do the same.
