Once again my eyesight brings me laughter...

I was just doing a TV Guide crossword puzzle. (Two of the answers were Alan Rickman and Dirk Benedict...yum.) One of the final clues was

Pirate groan

which I misread as

Pirate groin.

Of course, that led me to phrases pirates use to refer to their groin...

"Arr! That's a mighty peg leg you got there."
"Me mizzenmast's been hoisted!"
"I'm about to broadside you with me cannon!"

Now I have to bring up my brother's favorite joke:

A pirate walks into the bar with a steering wheel in his pants. Of course, the bartender's curious, and asks our not-so-jolly rodger what happened. The pirate responds, "Arr, it's drivin' me nuts!"

(Don't blame me. We head for the hills whenever somebody mentions the p-word.)

Yes, that is my favorite joke too, told to me by bookwench2096. It sometimes makes me laugh out loud at inappropriate times.
