Oh, oh... pirates have really done it this time.

Those adventure-loving pirates of Somalia have stepped in the doo-doo this time.  After hijacking and holding for ransom a Saudi tanker and a few dozen ships crewed by Filipinos, they missed the cue that the crew of their latest conquest spoke only English.  They hijacked a ship with twenty-one Americans on board.

Did your mommies not warn you that if they speak only English, chances are they are Americans?

"Somebody's going to get a hurt on", as Russell Peter's dad would say.

A bit of advice to the pirates.  You have a choice to either return the ship and crew in pristine shape (maybe throw in a new paint job) and apologize or spend the rest of your miserable lives staring at the sky trying to see the Yankee Cruise Missile that is about to ram you up the keester.

And there won't be any parlee with the Americans.
