Store boasts best pirate booty

"Some laughed, a few scoffed when Holly Miller-Naranjo opened Pirates N' Plunder two years ago. The store is exclusive to all things pirate.

Some doubted the high-concept specialty shop had a wide enough niche to survive. But then came "Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl" in 2003, which helped boost Miller-Naranjo's bottom line.

Now the upcoming release of the Johnny Depp-driven sequel is bringing in a new wave of customers like Cherry and Miller-Naranjo is laughing a hearty "harrr" all the way to the bank."

"Store Manager Mike Gonzalez" is Lord Doku and Angels has their baronial meetings there these days. Very cool place! We will have to go by there when you get back.

Don't know where Whittier is, necessarily, but there was a shop on the waterfront in San Diego that was at least 30% Pirates. We bought Pirate Band-aids and Pirate Picture Frames there.

Arrrr!
