Weapon of the WEEK! *Special*


Sempena the opening of Pirates of the Carrubean 2 : Dead man's Chest I present to you the Jack Sparrow Ring Replica!

This authentic wearable replica of Johnny Depp’s personal ring, worn by Jack Sparrow in Pirates of The Caribbean: Search for The Black Pearl, and Pirates of the Caribbean II: Dead Man’s Chest.

The moment Captain Jack Sparrow sailed into our consciousness in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Search for the Black Pearl, the dashing daredevil captured not just ships and treasures but also our imaginations. Bold, clever and as swift with a quip as with his sword, jaunty Jack has become a symbol of independence, cleverness and courage.

Johnny Depp's personal style also influenced the character "Captain Jack Sparrow" as well. His own ring, worn to the set one day, looked so perfect for Jack's character that it was quickly adopted as part of the flamboyant pirate's costume.

Antique finished ring featuring a forest green crystal stone.
Ring hangs on a 22 inch leather neck strap.
Original pirate skull motif surrounds the base of the ring.

Till death do me away, animal

Yeah, this place is way overdue for something besides my random photos and weapon of the week.

One thing I have noticed, we, as the human race do try (as often as we can) to differentiate ourselves from our animal counterparts. As many game advertisements I've seen boast that the only thing that seperates us from the furry denisens of the forest are our thumbs. I think otherwise. There are still many 'animal' traits to us that we would bluntly refuse to admit to. For instance (some mights here) :

You 'might' sniff your/housemates/parents/whatever's clothes while you're dumping them in the washing machine. This basically is identifying someone by sense of smell like going '*sniff* This has got to be uncle ezekiel's shirt, smells like sheep'

You 'might' sleep with an arm over your head. The way a bird would cover it's own head with a wing while it sleeps. I've actually seen a monkey do this after getting a hangover from eating decomposing fruit. Lol.

You 'might' sniff socks. I frankly think this is disgusting, but cats (and some people *shudder*) seem to like it.

You 'might' dream of chasing cars or running around on all fours. For this one I might recommend visiting a psychiaratrist or you might just be a Therian trying to get out of your human skin.

You 'might' wear cat/puppy ears and tail in public. If you fall into this category, I'm sorry to say, you watch way too much anime.

So till death do me away, you are an ANIMAL. You may call yourself a human but a human animal is also dig? :)

Laterism, I got a bone to bury.
