Arrrrr…… me hardy’s. This be your Captain speaking and I want to bring you up to date on our Private Screening of the Pirates of the Caribbean 3, on opening Day May 25th. The event will be held at the MegaPlex complex at the Gateway, and now I can reveal who our special guest will be.

Beginning at 4pm on the upper deck of the Gateway Admiral "Black-Mark" Shurtleff will be holding a wench auction for the crew. At around 4:30 there be a contest for the best dressed Captain Jack Sparrow, Elizabeth Swan, Will Turner, and Captain Barbossa with prizes to be paid in new US Gold Dollars. This event will be the 2008 kickoff fundraiser for Attorney General Mark Shurtleff aka Admiral “Black-Mark” re-election campaign. At around 5:00pm the Spyglass crew will start taking their seats, and the show will start at 5:30pm.

After we have secured the major sponsors, a message will be sent out on the Spyglass providing instructions on how to make donations for tickets on Paypal . You should set up your Paypal account right away so you can get the best seats. We expect many dignitaries to attend and coverage by the local media.

How About a Plank Walk?
There are certain things, apparently, that you can do as a Republican in Utah that you could never do as a Democrat.

For example, it's safe to say that if a Democratic politician demeaned women as a joke in a fund-raising letter, he or she would be in for some grief.

An e-mail sent out by Republican insider Mark Towner asking for sponsors for an upcoming fund-raising event for Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff should make the point.

The e-mail notes that the fund-raiser's theme fits the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 3," and will include a special screening of the movie on May 25 at the MegaPlex complex at the Gateway.

"Beginning at 4pm on the upper deck of the Gateway," the e-mail says, "Admiral "Black-Mark" Shurtleff will be holding a wench auction for the crew."

A wench auction? A wench auction?

Webster's defines wench as "a female servant" or "a woman whose sexual behavior is loose and immoral?"

So Shurtleff is holding a wench auction?

Something tells me that if such an event occurred within the party of Jan Graham, Karen Shepherd, Patricia Jones and Patrice Arent, there would be hell to pay.

A wench auction?

There also will be a contest for the best dressed Captain Jack Sparrow, Elizabeth Swan, Will Turner and Captain Barbossa, with prizes paid in new U.S. gold dollars.

Towner says he is looking for sponsors for the fund-raiser.

Sponsorships, depending on the level, will cost $2,500, $2000, $1,500 and $1,000. Individual tickets will be $15 for one and $20 for a couple.

A wench auction?

Cheers,
