Many have said that upon entering the best pirate supply store in San Francisco, they get a sensation of déjà vu. Others walk in and feel at once the miracle work of an unseen hand. Yet there are those whose eyes bulge and shrink simultaneously while their thoughts are so convoluted that they are unable to shout or mutter the question that most plagues them: “What is this place?” The store log is weekly account of actual events that occur in the shop, as well as testimonials, comments and complaints from our customers. June 30, 2005 The mops, the mysterious ladder, the wall full of drawers—even Pandora might pause before opening—it was not only the rain that made me reluctant to depart so soon. June 27, 2005 Today I have Japanese, Chinese, and English Grammar class. I should be at my grandmother’s funeral. Instead I am in the pirate store. Life is good. June 21, 2005 I read the sign but escaped the mopping. Nay, there was not a mop that did touch my salty brow. June 15, 2005 Dear 826—Thank you for the mopping. ‘Twas about time. June 10, 2005 I’m thinking if I had money I would spend it here. June 02, 2005 Q: How many surrealists does it take to screw in a light bulb? A: A fish.
