> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by rickh57 \* > \*\*It has me down as “Dirty Jack Flint”… Arrrr… \*\* Steal my name why dont ya… I’m **Dirty Jack Flint**! You’re the pirate everyone else wants to throw in the ocean – not to get rid of you, you understand; just to get rid of the smell. Like the rock flint, you’re hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you’re easily chipped, and sparky. Arr! 😛 ---

Let’s see I’m: **Iron Bess Bonney** A pirate’s life isn’t easy; it takes a tough person. That’s okay with you, though, since you are that person. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate’s life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr! Arrr. Where’s a pirate smilie when you need one? * * * \<\< Reality’s the only obstacle to happiness. \>\> ---

Your pirate name is: **Dread Pirate Bonney** Like the famous Dread Pirate Roberts, you have a keen head for how to make a profit. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate’s life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr! Yarr! We Bonneys need to get together, too! ---
