Pirate-Speak Winners!

Almost chosen at random...

Your powers of pirate-speak are staggering. I’ve chosen the following almost at random. The winners this week are:

Seattlesnowflake — you had me at “land dogs”

Andrew Rutledge — who shares his household with an actual ewok

Matt Perky — the words “rubble” and “loot” never get enough mileage

DNDElise — Now the story. In my neck of the woods (Skamania County, Washington State) locals have taken to putting stickers on their trash cans. Each sticker shows a cartoon of a raccoon with the Italian model Fabio’s face on it. The wording is, “Don’t be a Fabio” because a few years back Fabio bought a huge tract of land hereabouts (he’s a dirt bike enthusiast) but he’s infamous for sneaking his garbage into other (poor people’s) garbage cans. Yes, Fabio dumps his stuff in other people’s cans. (our last famous neighbor was Mel Gibson, and the local Safeway would open at midnight for only his family so they could shop in peace. but Mel moved away.) So any mention of Fabio is a winner.

Please notify Dennis with your snail mailing address. Let me know if you’ve a dog or cat in your life. If you’re outside the United States please include a phone number so your prize moves through Customs successfully.

Argh, and that be all maties!
