The first thing that popped into my head was the filk song about Captain Jack and the mermaid.
Jack Harkness quickly followed by Billy Joel. Of course, Jack Harkness always makes me think of the Billy Joel song anyway (though I somehow doubt Harkness would ever “just sit at home and masturbate”).
Sparrow didn’t pop into my head until I opened the thread and read it.
For some reason I thought of Spinal Tap’s “Saucy Jack” first.
Me as well.
Aubrey.
Michael Bolton.
William Joel.
Monterey jack cheese
The drink, the song or my high school English teacher (we gave him that nickname).
The man sitting at the piano in earshot of Paul and Davey.
Wait, not the Billy Joel song. I guess this one, though I only dimly remembered it.
Wally and the Beaver’s pet alligator.
Billy Joel.
Captain Jack will get you by tonight
And take you to your special island
Captain Jack will get you high tonight
Just a little push, and you’ll be flyin’
Another vote for Billy Joel.
Harkness and I don’t even really like the character.
Billy Joel.
First song I ever heard with the word “masturbate” -which for some reason made it stick with me.
Wasn’t there a movie with Snake Pliskin in it called Captain Jack?
Oooops, IMDB says it was Captain Ron.
Billy Joel. One of my faves.
Captain Jack Handy from the science fiction novel Larklight.
Captain Jack Absolute from Sheridan’s The Rivals and C. C. Humphrey’s rather splendid Jack Absolute novels.
