Yarrrrrr.
'Tis International Talk Like a Pirate Day, me beauties. What be ye doing to celebrate this momentous holiday?
I've got a veritable harrrrrrrrrrrrrrvest of pirate jokes!
For example:
- What kind of library do pirates work in?
- What do you call a pirate who sets fire to his own ship?
- What's a pirate's favorite candy bar?
- Where do pirates like to go in North Dakota?
- What's a pirate's favorite Hogwarts subject?
- Who's a pirate's favorite economic theorist?
The nice thing is that you may come up with even better punchlines than the one I intended!

It's because it's funny to have all the "Arrr" answers followed by Adam Smith. It's like the bad dog joke about "should I have said Lou Gehrig?" Not to mention that misinterpretation of Smith's thoughts on self-interest could be used as justification for piracy.

John Harrrrrrrrsanyi? Hal Varrrrrrrrrrrrrian? Arnold Harrrrrrrrrrberger? I list 2 Nobel Prize winners, an economist who took Adam Smith to a whole new level and the head economist at Google and you give me Karl Marx? Mr. T-Bone should get more respect (forgot my name).

You know, ever since you posted earlier, I have been wondering how someone at KSU found my blog. I only just made the connection and realized who you are. Durrr. It doesn't help that your address starts with a C and I don't think of you as a C. :D
I'm not saying your answers aren't good! They're just not what I came up with (or anyone I've heard of). They are probably better answers than mine (like Craig and Alfie did with the Hogwarts classes). I wouldn't know. You could be like "Barrrrney R. Harrrrrfdarrrrrfer is the greatest economist who ever lived" and I would be like "Yes... yes, he's very good. Yes, Harfdarfer. One of my favorites."
1. Umm...One with amazing arrrchitecture?

3. Marrrrrs barrrrr.
4. Farrrrrrgo.
5. Defense against the Dark Arrrts.
6. Adam Smith
