Pirates! In my adventure


Somebody asked today if I'd be a pirate. My answer was, yes, but not today, as in not this minute but yesterday; a classic pirate. Problem is, I don't think there were women pirates. Women who "serviced" pirates, sure, but pirates? Someone who knows piratical history better than me could answer that. What I know of pirates you could fit on the head of a pin.

However, I adore the pirate books by Gideon DeFoe.He's like Monty Python meets Christopher Moore. My personal fav of the series thus far is Pirates! In an Adventure with Ahab, though Pirates! In an Adventure with Communists is pretty good, too. You should really check out his website - he's a funny dude, then read the books.
