Here it goes . . .

Having viewed the Disney historical records of the adventures of 17th and 18th century pirates, Yak knew at once that he had been born into the wrong century. Everything, down to his own name, screamed Pirate!

So, with great effort and expense, Yak built a time machine to make his dream come true.

He even had a costume specially made for his new life in the 17th/18th century:

All he has to do now is find his own Black Pearl.

QUESTION:

So, do you think that a Rebel Minis Grey could be transformed into a "Captain Yak Spawoo", so he can join and lead a band of Blue Moon Pirates and raid the Seven Seas?

I don't see why not. I think anything new and that challenges assumptions is a pretty good idea. I would like to see the pics when you have completed it!

With enough putty and a little imagination, anything is possible.

Top Gun Ace11 Mar 2010 10:25 p.m. PST

Well, that would help explain some of the USO sightings in the area.

It is not true, aliens never wear eyeliner….

Well except DWW and we are not sure just what he is…

It's NOT mine….it was leftover from the BATMAN movies….where Keaton, Kilmer, Clooney and Bales had to wear it around their eyes, because the mask didn't cover right up to it…(Robin and Batgirl too, but that's another story)…

and you wanna talk about funky makeup…how about AH-nold as Mr. Freeze??? Wooo-baby…strange!

Slishfully,
Sgt DWW-btod….OF this world…but LONG before you bipedal, air-breathing, mammalian types…(several MILLION years in fact…Mollusks and Cephalopods were here first and will probably OUTLAST y'all too!) The Kraken was a 'stunt-tentacle'…he was only playing 'possum' for the movie folks…

So DWW your not an alien, you can wear eyeliner then, but the lippy is just wrong…

Sloppypainter12 Mar 2010 7:43 a.m. PST

CC, if you can make Mexican Greys you can make a pirate grey. Get the Green stuff, shape the green stuff, apply the green stuff, BE the green stuff…you know you want to.

FreddBloggs,

I think you've got the wrong guy. DWW is of this world, and is definitely NOT Jack Sparrow.

We all know who he's related to:

PS. And what is your fixation with make-up anyway?

Cacique Caribe12 Mar 2010 7:58 a.m. PST

Pete,

You are exactly right. I really do want to.

Soon, Pete, soon. Gotta give my hand another couple of weeks to heal.

Well the Bermuda Triangle is IN the Caribbian, so how do you know that they were not there to begin with? Explains some of the wierdness.

Space Aardvark12 Mar 2010 8:34 a.m. PST

That expalins all the ganga smoking Grey posters!

Cacique Caribe12 Mar 2010 8:37 a.m. PST

Aliens like the warm weather, balmey winds, sandy beaches and frequent wearing of Bikinis … But then who doesn't …

War Monkey14 Mar 2010 10:29 a.m. PST

Sure why not! strange thinks have happened, If I remember right, Christopher Columbus had and unexplainable entire in his log, which some today, claim it was a UFO.

Top Gun Ace14 Mar 2010 12:04 p.m. PST

There is that almost super-secret, U.S. USO/UFO underwater testing facility in the region too, in the Bahamas, if I recall correctly.

I found out about it on one of the History Channel shows on the subject.

Strange goings on there. Throw in a bit of time travel, with the fast interstellar speeds of the craft, and you can have some pretty fun scenarios, e.g. classic pirates vs. aliens.

There was also the USO/UFO incident with the new nuke carriers from the 1960's off of Cuba as well, if you are looking to add in another twist to your plots.
