And the winners arrrgh…
It seems pirate plates are popular. Here’s one submitted by OSJ reader Margo.
The judges have picked their favorite pirate joke from last week’s entries.
We liked Chicago Steve’s tome the best, but then he went and ‘fessed up to stealing it by thanking Google. Most jokes are stolen but you don’t tell people you stole it. So Chicago Steve gets the gang plank.
So we choose Matt and Maria (No. 7 for your review). And Nick in New Hampshire, who turned in the picture of the plate, too.

As to the winning joke, I think it’s a tie between Matt & Maria (good one!) and Liamsaunt! “Bounty on me head” … LMAO!

Sorry matt and maria. But I have read that one a long time ago while searching for pirate songs and jokes when I was in the coast guard. Yours is the classic version. There are better versions out there. – have to say that most of the jokes were “stolen” from google searches and other sources. Too bad people can’t come up with some of there own

Ok, for a little redemption I just made this up… if it already exists (and it probably does), it’s pure coincidence:
Q: Why did the pirate take a Caribbean cruise?
A: For a little arrrgh and arrrgh.

YAY FOR US!
Still, though, I agree with CA girl – “Bounty on me head” was great. That joke I wrote up is certainly an oldie but a goodie, one that we’ve been telling for a LONG time; and always brings a good laugh to the audience. Having that said, bring on the prize! Jeff, I’ll email you our address soon
