I watched six days, seven nights with family tonight. Part of the movie had pirates in it. I thought that would be the life, I told my son, a pirate would be fun, you make your own hours, drink & be merry, sailing around in a big ship with a tropical setting.  “I would like to be a pirate!” I exclaimed,” but I don’t want to steal or kill.”, as if this new-found realization would in fact become reality, I wanted to make it clear, I would be a good, kind pirate. He said “Stealing & killing is what being a pirate is all about MOM, you might as well be a rich person on a yacht, vacationing 365 days a year!” Ohhh, I changed my mind, I would rather be a rich person on a yacht, vacationing 365 days a year!

 YO HO, YO HO a pirates rich life for me!
