| Introduction | I pronounce my name the Gaelic way, "kate-LEEN" (indicated by the accent on the second "I" of my name). When I was about six years old I decided there were too many plain old Caitlins and wanted something else. When my mom told me the Gaelic pronunciation of my name, I knew that was what I wanted to be called.
I'm a homeschool graduate with a fierce love for reading, sailing, friends, music (especially Celtic music with a kick--whether it's rock/fusion or traditional), and my family. |

If you were a pirate, how would you avoid laughing when saying 'poop deck'?
Unless my IQ and/or maturity level went way down upon my turning pirate, I should be able to avoid laughing when saying "poop deck." Poop just isn't funny anymore.
