Oh, my. Nurses in pirate's garb, and a fluffy one, at that. I do believe I feel an attack of the vapours coming on. A denim skirt would go great with that pirate do-rag.

Oh, great. My e-pirate name is "Doubloon Swallowin' Jack". Why not call me "Roger the Cabin Boy" and be done with it...

Arrrrh! This website be the stuff of piratey dreams! Cast yer peepers on this official result of the The Official Talk Like a Pirate Personality Inventory (TTOTLAPPI)!

You don't even have to read beyond the first line to see how accurate it is! It's right on the hogshead!

Th' Galley Wench

Profile: You, me hearty, are an activist! You will not only change the world, you will make a dyed-in-the-wool Pirate dream of you in a sheep costume. You are the embodiment of the love that dare not hoist its sail! Ahoy thar! You could make a two-patch Pirate turn his head - but then he or she would lose sleep over it and what good would that do anyone? An innovator, you are WAY ahead of your time - and everyone else's. You are sensitive and artsy-fartsy. You say things like, "artsy-fartsy" but there is always a slight giggle in your voice when you say it - like Paul Lynde or Ellen DeGeneress delivering a staggering punch line on Hollywood Squares. Speaking of "punching" the only "punching" you need to worry about is punching up that outfit with some accessories - say, a little bandana and some glass beads. You're not the Pirate we want in a fight, but we want you there for the crying game that follows! You go, girl. Or boy. Whichever you prefer today.

And lets not forget to give thanks to His Holiness that gave us Pirates!

And it is Shanty night at Cameron's in Gloucester. We'll definitely have to sing:

YOU CAN'T BE A PIRATE
(Don Freed)

Being a pirate is all fun and games,
'Til somebody loses an ear.
It drips down your neck, and it falls on the deck,
'Til someone shouts, "Oy, what's this 'ere?"
You can't wear your glasses, you can't poll the lasses,
Your friends have to shout so you'll hear;
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
'Til somebody loses an ear.

Chorus:
It's all part of being a pirate
You can't be a pirate with all of your parts.
Oh, it's all part of being a pirate
You can't be a pirate with all of your parts.

Being a pirate is all fun and games,
'Til somebody loses an eye.
It stings like the blazes, it makes you pull faces,
You can't let your mates see you cry.
A dashing black patch will cover the hatch
And make sure that the socket stays dry;
Being a pirate is all fun and games
'Til somebody loses an eye.

Chorus

Being a pirate is all fun and games
'Til somebody loses a hand.
It spurts and it squirts and it jolly well hurts,
Pain only a pirate could stand.
The fash'nable look is a nice metal hook,
But now you can't play in the band.
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
'Til somebody loses a hand.

Chorus

Being a pirate is all fun and games,
'Til somebody loses a leg.
It hurts like the dickens, your pace never quickens,
Hopping around on a peg.
Ask your sweetheart to marry, but too long you've tarried,
'Cause now you can't kneel down and beg.
Being a pirate is all fun and games
'Til somebody loses a leg.

Chorus

Being a pirate is all fun and games,
'Til somebody loses a 'wotsit',
Though you didn't choose it, you don't want to lose it,
You're hoping that somebody spots it,
Then the 'Doc' comes along and he sews it back on,
Or he ties it on tight - then he knots it!
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
'Til somebody loses a 'wotsit'.

Chorus

It makes me quite irate- it hardly seems fair,
You can't be a pirate if you are all there!

It's all part of being a pirate
You can't be a pirate with all of your parts.
Oh, it's all part of being a pirate
You can't be a pirate with all of your parts
