Niagara Celtic festival is this weekend (13-14) in Krull park in Olcott NY. I'll be there with the Sterling Invaders.

Next weekend is Queen City Con Quest - Downtown Buffalo, in the convention center. I should be there one of those days.

It seems that a number of us are located in and around WNY.

I'd like to plan a Meet-up where we can sit around, drink and plot and plan.

does anyone have a location suggestion, and who would show up?

What is the point of News if you have no forum to discuss it?

What good is information if you have no means to share it?

What good is data and theory ; if there is no means of verification?

Long live LibreNews!

The torrent has ended. We lost Crewman Willikers in the wash. He had tied himself to the helm, and tried to keep course. We lost the wheel too; but the carpenter had a spare; and was able to patch it up. On the other hand he's not so sure of the patch to the hull, and wants us to find port. The sails will need patching, but for the most part the ship is sound.

The navigator says we're more than 200 off course; but the damn man wont provide any units. Could be parsecs for all I know. or Milliliters. or Pascals. bastard.

where's the damn grog?

Day 7 has disappeared in a fog. Not sure if fog is real, or due to too much Grog.

Day 8 - the rain has penetrated through our skins and soaked every last crewmember. some have even taken additional time in the bilge to get away from the relentless downpour. the winds have slacked off, but without the stars to navigate by it is hopeless to maintain a heading.

Day 5, the sky has broken open and begun to rain upon the vessel. So far we have sent the cabin boy down to pump the bilge.

Crew managed to trade Spam for rum before we left port;

First mate was shanked for whistling showtunes on deck.

Dear god, both day two and day three have been devoured by sharks.

Need more grog.
