Well, it's time for a change. Angry

From this day forward I will no longer be known as 'kdryan'.

I will be known as:

[glb]
The
Dread
Pirate
Roberts!!
[/glb]

What do you think? Bragging rights if you can tell where it's from...

I know where it comes from. And quite frankly the name change is INCONCEIVABLE!
I quite like The Princess Bride too!

PS. How many bragging points do I get Grin

I think you should stop using that word. I don't think you know what it means... Grin

Dread Pirate Roberts.

Back in the 80's there was a movie called 'The Princess Bride' and one of the characters was called 'the Dread Pirate Roberts' and was not who he seemed to be. A fantastic movie and if you have a kid, I suggest you watch it together, although my wife and I had for years before our kids.

Who are you?
No one of consequence.
I must know!
Get used to disappointment.

or

the miracle max scene. Billy Crystal is just awesome.

I have to say they did an excellent job with Morgensterns book. Totally wonderful film. I wore out my first copy on video and had to buy another last summer!

DVD Baby! Although the DVD is a bit sparse... They really should come out with a special edition of iths one. Maybe for 2005 they will.

"Roberts and I eventually became friends... And then it happened."

"What? Go on."

"Well, Roberts had grown so rich he wanted to retire. So he took me to his cabin and he told me his secret;

I am not the Dread Pirate Roberts, he said.

My Name is Ryan and I inherited the ship from the previous Dread Pirate Roberts. Just as you will inherit it from me. The man I inherited it from is not the real Dread Pirate Roberts either. His name was Cummerbund. The real Dread Pirate Roberts has been retired 15 years and living like a king in Patagonia."

I thought of changing my name once, to "Evil Fat Guy" (EFG for short), but then I thought "Hey, I'm not that FAT!!".

You think you have it rough, if I slick my hair back everyone thinks I look like a chubby Christopher Walken Shocked

The only advantage to this is that when I threaten the monkeys at the post office over missing mail they do tend to take me seriously!
