Let me get this straight - governments around the world have paid $150 million just this year to PIRATES? Like, pirates on the high seas, as reported here, with peg legs and parrots? The Somali pirate leader, pictured at left, has demanded $2 million and some Max Factor products at cost be sent to them for the release of a trawler taken hostage. Goddamn - that's a lot more than I'm making. Time to put on some mascara and grab me-self a saber.
Yo, ho, yo, ho...
