I've wind in me sails and a swagger in me step.
Me pipe's loaded to the nines with the murky mistress, the crumble cake of Neptune, his-self.
I been studying the charts. Me powder's dry and me spirit's high.
I hear tell the Frigate be needing a Gunner. Truth be told, for an assignment to this tub, I'd serve as Powder Monkey. But me aim is true and me barrels are cleared. You'll not find a fitter Gunner this side o' the Indies.
I'll be at the Lubber's Landing, tilting mugs and grapplin' with wenches. Should we have an accord, send word before lifting a yard....

The book above, Under The Black Flag by David Cordingly, is an excellent read, by the way...

Ah good! I think we needed a good gunner. I was wondering what role you would take on, Jaytex. I love the photo you used for your signature, by the way. Fitting :twisted:

Poor bastard. Little does he know he'll be walkin' the plank as soon as they're out of the harbor.

You pirate types are frigging weird.
I'd read about keel-hauling but when the Brits actually did it to Capt. Teach in the 4th season of "Black Sails," holy hell, what a stomach churner.
There's torture and then there's T-O-R-T-U-R-E.

Mark it on your calendar, the humor writer Dave Barry and his mates have declared Sept. 19 "Talk Like A Pirate Day."
