If Mario and a pirate had kids, this is the game they’d play:

Red Beard

And a joke for the occasion:

Long ago, when sailing ships ruled the waves, a captain and his crew were in danger of being boarded by a pirate ship. As the crew became frantic, the captain bellowed to his First Mate, “Bring me my red shirt!”

The First Mate quickly retrieved the captain’s red shirt, which the captain put on and led the crew to battle the pirate boarding party.

Although some casualties occurred among the crew, the pirates were repelled. Later that day, the lookout screamed that there were two pirate vessels sending boarding parties. The crew cowered in fear, but the captain, calm as ever, bellowed, “Bring me my red shirt!”

Once again the battle was on. However, the Captain and his crew repelled both boarding parties, though this time more casualties occurred.

Weary from the battles, the men sat around on deck that night recounting the day’s occurrences when an ensign looked to the Captain and asked, “Sir, why did you call for your red shirt before the battle?”

The Captain, giving the ensign a look that only a captain can give, exhorted, “If I am wounded in battle, the red shirt does not show the wound and thus, you men will continue to fight unafraid.”

The men sat in silence marveling at the courage of such a man. As dawn came the next morning, the lookout screamed that there were pirate ships, 10 of them, all with boarding parties on their way.

The men became silent and looked to the Captain, their leader, for his usual command. The Captain, calm as ever, bellowed, “Bring me my brown pants!”

Also of note is the history of Michael Jackson’s Face

Where’d Michael go wrong? Thriller was one of the best albums of all time, but damn he took a jump off the deepend. Bizarre marriages, naming his kids: Paris Michael Jackson, Prince Micheal Jackson I, and Prince Micheal Jackson II…no ego involved there.

Maybe he should submit that recipe? Or I guess it’s obvious to everyone that beer nuts is made by pouring (sober mind you) beer into a bowl of nuts.

A lot can be learned from BeerNuts.com, for instance Beer Nut Races. You get everyone a full beer and a peanut. Hold the peanuts over the beers and on the count of three, release them into the glasses. The nuts sink to the bottom. When enough of the carbonated bubbles collect on the nut, it rises to the top. The last nut up loses!

Here’s a fresh take on the classic snake eat mouse / avoid tail and walls game.
