The story of a pirate.

One day when the captian was ashore, he was in the same pub as the first mate. The first mate said,"capem, you have been fair to your crew. Tis makes me want to know more about you. Wood ya mind me askin a few questions?" Shore, I will be faf-ful an try me best to answer yur questions. capem, howd ya loose that leg of your's? well, we were sailin round the horn when a hugh wave warshed me off da ship. The winds round the horn are big and the wave are bigger so it took me crew 10 minutes longer than the shark that thought I was lunch to pick me up. Capem, why does ya have da hook? Me mate, was the best boarden our crew ever had. Came broadside then swang from the yardarms to the enemy. They were taken by surprize. The swords flying and the blood flowin, I really don't remember but me sword and me hand came up mizzen. Capem, what was it that took your eye... I do say your patch on your eye is manly. Mate I lost me eye to a pigion. Capem, a pigion? Mate, during the noon site, I was sightin the sun, a pigion made a direct drop in me left I. I had only had me hook for a week. Keep your keel down rrrrrr.w.landau

My idea of real pirate talk

When asked whether piracy is still being practiced, I always tell my friends modern-day pirates utter things like "Say, as long as your boat is already blocked in our yard, would you like us to go ahead and fill and fair that Catalina smile for you?" You want to really talk like a pirate ... just say things like "would you like to pay by cash or credit card?" or maybe just "Welcome to [insert name of favorite marine supply]!!" (This is just all in fun. I like spending money on my boat. That's why I don't have any.) Regards, Gary Kunkel Catalina 30 "Folie a Deux" Channel Islands CA

Pirates are not good people...

They are thieves... highway robbers. I am always amused by the fairweather weekend bay and lake sailors who are trying to be cool by "talking like a pirate". When they have no idea what a pirate really is. I have been chased by, boarded by, and had to fend off real pirates on two occasions in my cruising life. Once in the Carib and once off the coast of Africa. This is like being chased through East Oakland at 3am and having to fight for your life and property while also being responsible for your crew. Why don't we have a national talk like Charles Manson Day?

Why don't we have National "stick up your butt day"? In your honor. Sheesh.

Gee

That "big" Joe is one smart cookie. That post took a lot of thought to compose.
