It's hard to play pirate in a country run by pirates! Kind Katrina totally
flipped the captain off the ship. Even when while he's grabbing and holding
on for dear life to his "life jacket" he's still pretending to talk
"pirate." Not so strangely - looking across all the dead and wounded on the
various terrains (Iraq, New Orleans and the Gulf Coast) and judging by the
polls, fewer and fewer are listening.
Sorry to be a retro-spoil sport!
