George loses his word

George was a pirate, but he wasn’t a very good pirate.

Every now and then, in the middle of a battle, he’d misplace his sword.

“It’s on your belt!” shouted the captain, slashing a British naval officer.

When he’d lose his sword, he’d loot corpses, picking up a sword and giving it a test swing.

“I don’t like the balance.”

“The edge is dull.”

“What a gaudy handle.”

“Just grab a belaying peg!” shouted the captain.

“Those are for losers,” whined George.

The captain stared at George.

“You’re so mean,” said George as he grabbed a wooden club and pouted.
