Arrg! Be you a pirate?
In honor of the new PIrates of the Caribbean movie coming out in a few weeks, we're putting up "The Government Manual for New Pirates" on Free Stuff this week. This tome has everything from a guide to conjugating 'to be' for new pirates (it's always 'be') to a page with a paper eye patch you can cut out (presumably when you need an eye patch in a pinch.)
Share your favortie pirate story, memory, photo, whatever. The best wins the book. As usual, you can read the rules here. 13 comments from 7 users

Is this how the paper is "doing their part" in countering global warming? "You may be interested to know that global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters are a direct effect of the shrinking numbers of Pirates since the 1800s. For your interest, I have included a graph of the approximate number of pirates versus the average global temperature over the last 200 years. As you can see, there is a statistically significant inverse relationship between pirates and global temperature." What are you going to do to protect the winner from ninjas? posted by

It's up because us Pastafarians be doing what we can to fight the scurvy menace of global warmin'. Join us or die! . By the way, I recommend renting "Monty Python and the Meaning of Life" just for the short feature on the pirate accounting firm, the Crimson Permanent Assurance. (Although "Every Sperm is Sacred" is a highlight too...) posted by

What a wonderful day for the sacred to be swimming. Where is a DC Madame when you need one. I guess I’ll have to go swimming by myself..
