Yo Ho, Yo Ho it’s a Pirate’s Day for me. Hell, they’re going to announce “Lay-offs” at my company soon – so might as well go out swinging a sword and take a wench or two.
Avast, me proud beauty! Wanna know why my Roger is so Jolly?

pirate walks into the bar after a long trip at sea. The bartender says, what happened to you? The last time I saw you you were in good health. Now you have a wooden leg, a hook, and a patch over one eye.
The pirate says, Arrgghh! Well let's me tell yas. We was in a battle with another ship. A cannonball takes off me leg and now I have this wooden stump to gets me around. Then a couple of months later I was in a sword fight. I gots me hand cut off. I eventually got me this here hook to replace it. Then, about a month ago, a bird flies over and shats in my eye.
The bartender says, how did that cause you to lose an eye.
Arrggghhh!!!! It was me first day with me new hook.
