Somali pirates, Wall Street pirates announce merger
Avast News Service, 11/17/2008 - In a surprise move, Somali and Wall Street pirates today announced that they will merge operations effective immediately.

"We believe that we can greatly increase our returns and make our system function much more efficiently by following the Wall Street piracy model, which is second to none in the world", said a Somali spokesman who declined to identify himself.

"We have had an eye on the Somali's for some time now, but this latest brilliant takeover by them of a portion of the oil sector was just the icing on the cake for us", said a Wall Street spokesman who declined to identify himself. "In fact, we have decided to relocate our headquarters to the bridge of the Sirius Star supertanker, where we know our operation will be under expert stewardship."
