Encyclopedia Brown and the Case of the Crusty Pirate! I read that one!
This is great! Is that you as a pirate? I can see you wandering around Calagry dressed like this, though it might be a little hard getting work as there's no port there.
Do you mind if I just sign it and put it in the Pirate Show coming up? I haven't done anything yet...
Avast, ye white-livered landlubbers, and prepare to be boarded! We're nasty pirates without regard to life, liberty, or low-brow convention! Jettison those tikis, give those art school hags a heave-ho, and run the Jolly Roger up the flagpole!

Hey man, it ain't retro when you're bein' keelhauled with a rope around your neck.
