Pirates...
 
Well the US Captain has been freed, and three of the Pirates are dead...

I see the Pirates bold statement that they would fight the US Navy didnt go according to plan...

Its a shame there will be no more Pirates of the Caribbean films :rofl::rofl:

Its been on Sky News pretty solid for the last few days, they needed a new "long runner" after the Jade Goody stories ran flat. Basically four blokes tried to pinch a boat, that went wrong so they pinched this American bloke instead and tried to make a quick escape in an engineless life raft.

The American fellow jumped overboard and then the Americans hit the liferaft with a B52, a cruise missile and Chuck Norris.

(The last bit I made up, but they are dead).

The Americans seem to have flushed the toilet.

its a big problem. Most shipowners now won't let their ships go through the Gulf of Aden. That means they have to go around the Cape rather than going through Suez. Luckily for consumers the shipping market is so bad that the extra days taken don't cost much more than the Suez canal fee so it is not being reflected in prices on the high street.

they should be doing that though, or just hire teams like on Rambo 4 of mercenaries and as soon as these lads come tootling up in their little boats waving guns the Rambo lads basically open fire and blow the twats out of the water,

it'll soon stop them. And it would be a good job to have I reckon.
