I wonder what sort of evil bidding a pineapple would want us to do??

Is evil bidding where you say

"I bid ten dollars for that vase and you can all @#&@&* off"

Perhaps they are bent on world domination.

And there is nothing worse than the evil bidding of a bent pineapple.

Hmm, rum. It gets me thinking:

Do pirates drink rum, or do they drink grog? Are they perhaps one and the same?

Anyone got any ideas?

Same thing, dear boy. In the Royal Navy a sailors grog ration was strong rum! Hence 'Navy Rum'. And drunken sailors.

If you like adventure
Don't you wait to enter
The recruiting office fast
Don't you hesitate,
There is no need to wait
They're signing up new seamen fast
Maybe you are too young to join up today
But don't you worry 'bout the thing
For I'm sure there will be
Always the good Navy
Protecting the land and sea
In the Navy
Yes, you can sail the seven seas
In the Navy
Yes, you can put your mind at ease
In the Navy
Come on now people make a stand
In the Navy
Can't you see we need a hand
In the Navy
Come on protect the motherland
In the Navy
Come on and join your fellow man
In the Navy
Come on people and make a stand
In the Navy
In the Navy


Ah! The Village People. I wonder why they had no women in the band?

Like what is the name of the bits that are punched out by a hole punch, and what exactly is the point of Chantelle?
