Happy talk like a pirate day, ye scurvy dogs!  Yarr, I be reminded of a conversation I had the other day regarding me hook.  That fella asked me how I lost me hand, and I told him of the fierce fight I had with that there sharky off the Barbary coast.  Oh, he struggled and fought, but I got me hat back, even if it cost me my hand.  He asked how I got me peg leg, and I told him about the cannon that misfired while boarding a poncy english schooner.  Harrrrrrrr....  I lost me leg, but I got me some loot, so it twas a good day.  Finally, he asked me about me eye patch.  I told him how a sea-gull had crapped in me eye while I was sailin' into port!  That there landlubber didn't understand how me eye would be lost to such an event, until I told him...  yarrr...  that it twas me first day with the hook.
