A pirate's life isn't easy; it takes a tough person. That's okay with you, though, since you are that person. Two things complete your pirate persona: style and swagger. Maybe a little too much swagger sometimes -- but who really cares? Arr!
I suppose that is fairly accurate. Style and swagger... I like that.

Before you attempt to beat the odds... Be sure you can survive the odds beating you.
Often indecisive, you can't even choose a favorite color. (that's because their choices sucked) You're apt to follow wherever the wind blows you, just like Calico Jack Rackham, your namesake. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!

Compassion is the sometimes fatal capacity for feeling what it is like inside somebody else's skin. It is the knowledge that there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too. - Frederick Buechner
If society prospers at the expense of the intangibles, how can it be called progress?
No Way, No How Maisky. I don't care about your pirate reputation but there is no way in the Seven Seas I'm cooking for anyone else! I'll plan your exploits for you, just don't ask me to carry them out.

We may all starve..... Well, you can join the party anyway!
I don't really want to be an Iron there are just too many. How about a nice "Stainless Steel" Roger Vane or perhaps a "Chrome" Roger Vane. I mean after all I am Vane and most people that are Vane are just a little flamboyant.
