hey ahab, watch out for those african pirates...

you know it's going to be a great day when there is breaking news like this: 

"Ship's captain held by pirates on a lifeboat off Somalia"

pirates...really?!  i thought we lived in the age of terrorists.  what qualifies them as 'pirates?'   i guess terrorism is 'so last season'...and pirates are really trendy right now...

cross somalia off my list of places to visit, unless of course i get to sing a sea shanty with some eye patch wearing, peg-legged pirates...
