Talking Sept. 19 - International Talk Like A Pirate Day

This appears to be as serious as a rhinocerous about to charge your ass.

September 19th

I think I speak for us all when I say, HAARRRRR!!!

Unfortunately, no, my timber hasn't been shivered since the night of John Kerry's speech. I'm beginning to feel less Presidential, and more Secretary of the Interior at this point.

There. Fixed it for ya.





By the way, if your timber hasn't been shivered since then, in NO WAY should you be in charge of anything interior.

P.S. Please report to the married sex thread to revise your posts. Immediately.

Pirate wedding party goes bad


By ANDREW WOLFE, Telegraph Staff
[email protected]

Published: Tuesday, Oct. 5, 2004

NASHUA - The bride’s uncle pulled a pistol on the groom and best man, who were role-playing as pirates during a wedding reception at the Bounty Lounge late Saturday night, police said.

Gerard Moccia, 55, of Medford, Mass., was arrested about 45 minutes later on two felony counts of criminal threatening, Detective Sgt. Andrew Lavoie said. Moccia was a guest at the wedding, which was followed by a pirate-themed reception at the Bounty Lounge at the Holiday Inn on Northeastern Boulevard, Lavoie said.

As part of the reception, the groom and best man were to burst into the lounge and “take over” the large-scale pirate ship model that graces the lounge, a former nightclub now used as a function room, Lavoie said. The bride was on or near the ship at the time, he said.

The two men wore tuxedos, but they had put on eye patches and wielded plastic toy swords to play their part as pirates, Lavoie said.

Moccia encountered the two swashbucklers in a hallway outside the lounge at about 10:15 p.m., and challenged them, saying something about the men thinking they were tough, or words along those lines, Lavoie said. “For whatever reason, he decided to take exception to them,” Lavoie said.

Moccia pulled out a handgun and aimed it at the two men after exchanging words, Lavoie said. No one was hurt, he said.

“He directly pointed it right at two people’s faces,” Lavoie said, aiming at one and then the other.

Several people saw the incident, and witnesses and the two men identified Moccia, Lavoie said. Moccia went to his room at the Holiday Inn after the confrontation, and police arrested him there at about 11:30 p.m., Lavoie said.

Moccia later posted $5,000 bail, and was released pending arraignment Friday in Nashua District Court. The charges against him are felonies, punishable by up to 3½ to seven years in prison.

My thought is that once or twice a day I'll move newly-bumped threads in the archives back to GD.
