Luxury ocean liners in Russia are offering pirate hunting cruises aboard armed private yachts off the Somali coast.

Wealthy punters pay £3,500 per day to patrol the most dangerous waters in the world hoping to be attacked by raiders.

When attacked, they retaliate with grenade launchers, machine guns and rocket launchers, reports Austrian business paper Wirtschaftsblatt.

Is there any chance this is what Sidebar was REALLY doing on that yacht? Perhaps the other story was an ill conceived cover, like hiking the Appalachian Trail, and Sidebar, drunk that he was, got shot by a pirate.

Whoa. The price to be added or dropped from the Funner/Punner Ping List may need to be 'rightsized' to this amount. Inflation, Prevailing Wage rules and "Card Check or Else," you know. (Plus, I'd like to make some serious 'funny' money.)

If you're on the Punner list, the pun-ishment you've taken has turned into a jackboot, I mean jackpot--your sacrifice has now proved to be a good investment.

This navel gazing is not a forward-looking statement and no future guarantee of list membership appreciation is implied. So as to not be accused of Insider Ping List Trading I will not sell any stock in the Ping List Portfolio for at least 300 picoseconds after posting this.



Time for some Comic Relief/Let's Ridicule The Left! Ping

Pun for All and All for Pun....
Funners & Punners &
Photoshoppers & Parodies Ping!

(see keyword FReePun)
If you want either on or off
this family-safe occasional ping list,
you must be out of your minds....


Let me know of any appropriate candidate threads.
I don't ping the list to threads that are sacreligious or tacky or seem likely to become so.
(on or off requests: FReepmail, enclosing a nominal $217.95 list processing fee--ACT NOW BEFORE HEARTLESS CAPITALIST HYPERINFLATION PRICE HIKES).
