12. Little known fact: The accent that Robert Newton made famous
as Long John Silver in "Treasure Island" is a Bristol accent. Bristol is an English maritime city.

"Arhh-men!"

21. AHOY!
Once in my rabble-rousin' teens, some friends and I decided drinking lots of rum in the dead of summer and then going paddle-boating was a good idea. Throw into the mix some bottle rockets and our recent viewing of "Strange Brew" and you get something to this effect:

"Argh, ye scurvey hosers!! These here are my plunderin' waters, so take off, eh? Give in to the dark side of the force, ya land-lubbin' knob, or it's a bottle rocket to yer craft ye'll be gettin...It'll be a beaut, eh!"

You get the idea. :D

And yes, we were ejected most unceremoniously from the Sharon Woods lake in Cincinnati by their HIGHLY unamused park rangers...some people have NO sense of humor. :P

22. Pirate joke! Pirate joke!
A pirate goes into a bar and has a steering wheel embedded in his crotch. The bartender looks at it and says "What the hell is that?", to which the pirate replies "I don't know, but it's drivin' me nuts!"

27. Arrrrrr! A pirate limerick...
There once was a pirate named Bates
Who traveled around on skates
He slipped on his cutlass
and now he is nutless
And pretty much useless on dates.

Arrrrrrrr, ye scurvey dogs!

(hold crooked index finger up in the air, cheap imitation of Captain Hook.)
