Is it that time again?

I moved $5 billion from the Lehman account into the slush fund, and then from the slush fund into the AIG account. I was careful not to leave a paper trail. Then from the AIG account into my personal slush fund and from there into a numbered Swiss bank account. I'm pretty sure that it can't be traced.

OK, I took a good minute to get that...!

I don't think puns are funny until you're about 40. Then you find yourself laughing at jokes that your parents would find funny...

...it's frightful scary, me lad...arrrrr! You midddlin' scallywag has many a yeeear to go, thar!

I'm afraid not. I've been indoctrinated in puns since the beginning. They are all bad.

Discover your pirate names here:

Your pirate name is:
Calico Davy Flint

Often indecisive, you can't even choose a favorite color. You're apt to follow wherever the wind blows you, just like Calico Jack Rackham, your namesake. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!
Oops, oh and, Arrrrgh!

Ever hear the one about the piece of string that tried to disguise himself by tying himself into a bow and ruffling out his ends?

A pirate walks into a bar with a ships wheel attached to the front o' his trousers. The bartender asks, "What the hell is that ships wheel for?" The pirate says, "Arrrr, I don't know, but it's drivin' me nuts!"

Like anyone confronted with the harshness of robbery on the high seas, you can be pessimistic at times. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!

Arrrr! So I see you be startin' the festivities this year with narry a thought as to crack yer flasks on me slumberin' noggin. Neptune hisself couldn't flounder me pirate heart on this fine day! Y'all have to do better than that to beach this salty dog. We've got ourselves some piratin' to do, so let's get tankered and hoist the jib and cast off in search of fame and fortune on this jolly roger day. This year we be searchin' for Captain Wooly's old pins, and by the fleas on my hairy hide we'll find 'em or I'll have you bilge rats shackled to the ferrymasters stern.
