HARR, 'n G' day t' all ye buccaneers and wanna-bes! We got ya a'other juicy bit o' news and gossip and ya dun wanna miss it.

Firs' in formost, we be changin' the look o' our Pepper Page a might bit, due to some o yorn bellerin about it fryin' yer eyes out 'r something 'nother. So iffen you be likin' this better, do give your lovely Pirate Editors a thumbs up.

Since 'tis the season fer celebratin' and carryin' on about the pirates, we dinna wan ta let yer fine n fancy folk down. We be in Pirate Land until the next issue 'n you better not holler at us fer not writtin' in gud english or yer be walkin' the plank you will.

Now that this issue be off t' a good 'n proper start, let's get t' th' juicy tidbits ye 'ave been dyin' t' read about fer th' last two weeks.

Wha's happenin' wit' Sprog Merlot and the namin' of him

'Twas our delight t' announce th' name o' th' newest royal, Walter Michael Kainoa Merlot, in th' last issue o' th' Pepper--'n th' end o' th' namin' feud between th' two rival royals, Tea_Roll 'n Chat. However, th' tale continues t' unfold as both continue t' press thar claims now fer th' rights t' nickname th' young one upon his upcomin' arrival. Chat insists that as th' elder, he has automatic rights. Tea claims that her nigh-daily natters wit' mama Merlot will give her th' upper hand. T' prove her point she proclaimed nicknames fer th' Youngsters Sprin', 'n Merlot herself said she made a good point. Chat disagreed heartily 'n demanded that Tea 'ave no encouragement in growin' her ego. Th' Pepper be devoted t' followin' any further developments on this family feud 'n will continue t' brin' ye th' latest on this tale.

LRVT's Biggest Buccaneers and thar Bootys 

Avast ye freebooter, did ye know that the Kraken is of Norse mythology? Th' most famous of Kraken be Cthulhu. Shiver me timbers, I do be a landlubber to not say Cthulhu be of Scandinavian descent making thy own Gerty be too! Ohhh! Hum. How do be use this information? Because ye can't spell Scandinavian without autocorrect trying to change it to scandal!! Not to mention her thieving cohort the Hornswaggle Chat do be a son of a biscuit eater to  dance the hempen jig in his pilfer of duffles. Least we forget thy attempts to loot the innocent lass that is Springjoy! Aye! They be pirates! One last bit o' trivia. Did ye know that's Sweden started putting barcodes on their ships? So they could Scan-the-navy. A yo ho ho, there be the news.


Where in th' world be Gilly?

Wit' so many o' LRVT out chasin' th' winds 'n sailin' th' high seas in search o' treasures at th' far port where th' pirate ship be docked, th' riddle has been asked: Where in th' world be Gilly? Th' Pepper set out t' investigate, 'n it seems that aft his more violent past, Gilly has taken t' livin' more peacefully in th' Subetan Seas these days. His owner, Lovecraft, claims that while his diet be currently vegetarian, he may make an exception fer Chat.

Chat, who suggested that should Tea decide t' throw Lovecraft down a hill or under a bus, it might nah be a bad thin', was told in no uncertain terms t' watch his step on deck while sailin' should th' worst happen 'n Gilly become suddenly starvin'.

Th' Pepper believes it best t' avoid swimmin' out at Sea at this time.

Be Dressin' up like a Pirate

Since it being pirate day n' all that hubballoo, we be dressin' our bootys in proper garbs. You scurvy pirates do the same and ye all get yerself a place in the Buccaneers of LRVT gallery in the next issue of t' Pepper. Jus' be a hollerin' at TerrennaAnimula to come 'n snap yer picture now and she be doin' it.

TerrenaAnimula


Who be lurkin' on th' forum

Some folk be sayin' they the lurkin' type. Now we jus' don't wanna ignore the lurkin' ones so we made a fine place fer them all in this little Pepper paper right here. So who be lurkin o' late? That'd be Freida
Freya
and sometimes Tea_Roll pretends to lurk all ninja like. But pirate folk don't be a welcomin' any one jumpin' aboard ship within out a sound. Scares the hair off th' capt'n's big toe, it does. So some'n say Tea not a hardy ninja. She be though.

Spiderwebby brews a storm o'er late news

Aft th' last issue o' th' Pepper was unexpectedly delayed, hand SpiderWebby was most displeased. Wit' Storms now brewin' in various oceans, Th' Pepper has reason t' believe that th' Spider Webby used some powers o' magic t' brew a storm up in order t' encourage a more timely delivery o' news in th' future. 

SpiderWebby if ye be readin' this, Th' Pepper has taken note. Mebbe. We can't be makin' a promise.

Terribly Lame Pirate Jokes Fer ye

Q. What be a pirate's favorite letter?

A: Because they’ll just wash up on shore later.

What's this? A second issue of The Pepper with less than a year in between? It's a St. Paddy's Day Miracle!! Or is it...no, it definitely has nothing to do with the beloved editors of the paper finally getting their act back together.  This phenomenon may bear some investigating, but it's one that we certainly won't be looking into...instead, we recommend you count your lucky clovers, and cross your fingers that it continues! And of course, keep reading, be  scandalous absolutely charming, and fascinating in our group gathering places, and be sure to send the editors lots of cookies. Shall we get on to the news?  Webby's latest storm gets Returned To Sender Webby, in spite of adamantly denying any and all responsibility for the numerous storms she has caused over the years, has been proven to have sent more than one massive storm across the nation. It's no shock to the members of the clan when the roots of each seasonal storm can be traced back to her secr

Now before you all perish from waiting for this newest issue with baited breath, get on with the reading of all the juiciest details of what's going on this week with the LRVT clan! What is fact? What is fiction? We leave that for you to decide. Be advised. This content may not be suitable for all audiences. A Smashing Success!

Did you think the editors of The Pepper  accidentally ALL wandered into the Marzipan room and got eaten up? After last issue's release, that may have been a legitimate question. But, in spite of our varied and unique distractions, we are here to bring you a most controversial issue of The Pepper.  Get ready, because at least part of this issue is going to be very sticky. Where in the World Have the Editors Been?? While we do not fancy ourselves so vital to the health and happiness of our readers that you all cannot live should our little paper be delayed, in order to answer to The Weather Controlling Webby so she stops trying to freeze us out of house and home with her ice and below zero temperatures, we offer up this little column by way of explanation. The exact details of what all we have been doing in our somewhat extended absence may or may not be top secret. We get our news but can't give up all our sources...unless you are offering fudge dipped cookies or some
