there is a man walking on the beach looking at the sand.  when he looks up he sees what seems to be a real life pirate staring at the water off of the pier.  so as he gets closer he looks harder and harder and he says to himself "well I'll be, it is a pirate." so the man walks up to the pier and says "excuse me sir, are you a real life pirate." the pirate says "arr, yes I am."  the man says "wow! I've never seen a pirate in real life.  there is so much I would like to ask you." the pirate says " shoot."  so the man says "I've always wondered, how did you get a hook for an arm?" the pirate says "arr, I was leaning off the edge of the boat letting my arm dangle, a shark jumped out of the water took it right off!" the man says "wow!" then he says well how did you get the peg leg?"  the pirate says "arr, the winds got heavy one night, and knocked down a pole that landed on my leg, took it right off!"  stunned the man asks "how did you get the patch over your eye?" the pirate says "arr, staring up at the heavens, seagull came pooped right in my eye!"  the man laughes and says "wait a minute, a seagull pooping in you eye wouldn't to any harm" the pirate says "arr, first day with the hook!"
