Poll question: Is my neighbor really a pirate? |
|
Here's the evidence. He doesn't have a peg leg and I've never seen him with a parrot. He doesn't drive a Cutlass. But he does holler odd things in the middle of the night that are sort of piratey sounding (something to the tune of "Yaaarrrrgggghhhh!" - though it's been suggested that he might be Howard Dean. I don't think so) and he goes away on long trips for extended periods.
So now I'm wondering if he might really be a pirate and how I should go about finding out. (I'm not bored, honest)

I like, I like!
Dirty Jack Kidd You're the pirate everyone else wants to throw in the ocean -- not to get rid of you, you understand; just to get rid of the smell. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!

14. I rate as "very pirate" |
|
Oh, hell, maybe I'm the pirate and I'm simply projecting on my neighbor.
I really do need help, I guess....

15. HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

I think you might be. But, the good news is, recognizing that you're a pirate is the first step. Now you can get help.
I have to go home from work now. Thanks for entertaining me my last hour. :)

6. Of course! The puffy shirt! |
|
It's tough to see under the long, buckled coat. I think maybe he does, though.

I thought it was Argh, or something like that. Maybe he is a pirate from Vermont?

12. Vermont is known for it's pirates |
|
They simply terrorize the shipping on Lake Champlain.
No, silly, he's not Howard Dean! I'd recognize him if he was! I think he's just an over-enthusiastic pirate, perhaps trying to make up for a small ..... um..... parrot or something.

13. Check his garage for silks and spices |
|
I think it is fairly obvious we are dealing with a Pirate, perhaps Bluebeard.

And I am! I wonder what my neighbors think I am! I'll have to try to remember to holler "shiver me timbers!" or something next time. That would be fun though I'd best give the hubby warning first. Or not.... :evilgrin:
