The Pirate Ruse

Book Report.
I just read a very interesting book. It is called, "The Pirate Ruse."
There was nothing inherently bad in this book, at least that I detected.
However, it was about pirates. So, it did hint some that pirates are not always the most morally inclined individuals.
Did I learn anything from this book? Can you learn something from a pirate, yes it was a romance novel, I discovered that as I was reading it, book?
I think yes.

In this book the main character who is a girl is given two Spanish pieces of eight. One of them is new and the other one is tarnished and worn. There were quite a few lessons that they applied to these two pieces of silver.
Such as, even though one is tarnished and worn, it is still worth just as much money as the one that is new.
They pointed out that people are like that and that we should all treat people as if they are of equal value. Everyone is important, and everyone can be forgiven and change.
It was a pretty good book. I think the author, Macia Lynn Mclure did a very good job.
She managed to write a pirate book and keep it relatively clean.

The only things I would warn people about if they feel like looking into reading this book are:
There is a lot of kissing in the last fourth of the book. I think she over did that a little bit. So if you feel like skimming you really aren't missing anything.
And, the pirate captain is in the habit of threatening to do things that he never actually does nor does he ever intend to do.

Left Behind


(This letter was found in a bottle somewhere in the north Atlantic ocean)
Ahoy thar, this be Captain Barnabas Pockets, don't worry I am not lost or anythin' though I do feel a bit left out.
You see me three younger brothers left for a few days of fun in the mountains. Me first younger brother is goin to be a helpin with the younger kids. Somethin I have always wanted to do.
So now here I be, all by my loneself except me other siblings, but you know...
Anyhoo, just thought I would rant for a little bit. Thanks fer readin. If you could cork the bottle and throw her back into the drink when yer finished then it would be much appreciated.
Well, so long chum, see ya somewheres eventually.
Sincerely yers,
Captain Barnabas Pockets.
P.S. it's times like this when ye realize that bein nice to people is a good thing. Because then they don't feel like they've been marooned.

Ahoy!

Well, here we are again. Sailing home from a great raid.
The only damper on our voyage is that it has been raining solid for the past week.
Me, and my poor crew of mighty vikings have been bailing out our ship for the past ... forgive me, my brain is to fatigued I can not tell you at this moment how long we have been at the bailing.
Well, nice to sea you all again. Join the festivities. Me, and me crew are going to take a long needed nap. G'night.

Captains log february 23

That's right I am sailing again for that world of the unknown. I call it the unknown, but you can just call it whatever fits your preference.
As I and my motley crew set forth on yet another unwritten down adventure I thought I might let you few people who have found my boat know what I have been doing.
A friend of mine got deathly ill a few weeks ago, so I wrote her a story. I am now fleeing the continent for a few months while I finish the second one. In this brilliantly composed story I took friends of mine and casted them as characters in the book. They all thought it was funny, so I started writing a sequel. Now I think it would be safest for me to run, while most of them are distracted with school and such.
So, until I return to this lovely land, remember. There is plunder out there waiting for you to take it. Ideas waiting to be caught and refined and sold for lots and lots of money.
Sincerely yours,
Captain Harold S. Pockets.
