<p style="text-align:center;">The typical American that I am&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">It&#8217;s allll fun and games when European and Scandanavian ships were getting hijacked by our once upon a time pirate friends from Somalia &#8211; but now?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Its personal&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I almost feel betrayed</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I really felt like we were growing together &#8211; learning from one anothers way of life if you will</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">We shared art&#8230;culture&#8230;violence&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">And this is how you motherfuckers repay me?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Firing eight shots at an American cruise ship!!!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">There goes<em> </em><a title="http://andthisismyamerica.com/2008/11/21/make-it-rain-on-em-somali-pirates-bank-150m-in-the-past-year/" href="http://andthisismyamerica.com/2008/11/21/make-it-rain-on-em-somali-pirates-bank-150m-in-the-past-year/" target="_blank"><em>Black Sparrow</em></a> you ungrateful sons of bitches&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I assure you this will be a messy divorce</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">How could it not be? I trusted these men and just like that it&#8217;s gone&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">They are lucky it was just random shots into the night</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Cause America isn&#8217;t going to play that hijack game &#8211; uh uh &#8211; not for one second</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Try it&#8230;I bet you with the blink of an eye me and John McCain appear like Batman and Robin and show em whose <em>really</em> boss&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Yep</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">You guessed it&#8230;<em>that</em> move is going to be called <em>Country First</em>&#8230;</p>

<p> Wow</p>
<p>Truly a stunning figure.</p>
<p>$150M in ransom money in the past year alone.</p>
<p>Whats interesting is up until the summer I didnt even know there was such a thing as a black pirate (I&#8217;m black so yes I&#8217;m allowed to say that shit) let alont a black <em>Somali</em> pirate!!!</p>
<p>Shit was news to me.</p>
<p>Initially when I read the above article I thought, &#8220;That&#8217;s it we are definitely making this movie and we are going to call that shit <em>Black Sparrow</em>&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>Then I thought, &#8220;Wait, hold up a minute, did that figure just say $150M????&#8221;</p>
<p>Like god damn, can you take a brother to the strip club?</p>
<p>Shit</p>
<p>I&#8217;m over here scouting out recession specials for happy hour later and these motherfuckers are sitting on $150M like they just signed a contract with the Yankees and shit&#8230;</p>
<p>Well i&#8217;ll tell you one thing, when we start shooting <em>Black Sparrow</em>, they are paying for ALLLL expenses!!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>P.S. Mike, I know your sick of this pirate shit, but a) its our future meal ticket and b) it was between this and <a title="http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/11/20/michael.mukasey.collapse/index.html" href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/11/20/michael.mukasey.collapse/index.html" target="_blank">Senator Mukasey collapsing yesterday </a>and I dont know I thought anything I could <em>possibly</em> say about that would just leave a bad taste in everyone&#8217;s mouth&#8230;</p>

<p>This is the type of stuff I just love to read about&#8230;</p>
<p>Not because I am some violent anarchist&#8230;but because this story&#8230;like the MV-Faina Somalian Pirate mishap&#8230;is unexpected&#8230;an underdog story if you will&#8230;</p>
<p>Here we have a an obscure Indian tribe, <em>Dondria Kondh</em>, who has challenged <em>Vedanta</em>, a British mining company to an &#8220;axe and arrow&#8221; fight if they pose threat to their sacred mountain by mining for aluminum&#8230;</p>
<p>I support these guys&#8230;get the fuck off that mountain you greedy heathens!!! This is sacred!!!</p>
<p>I mean if they are saying its sacred&#8230;(and they have bows and arrows and shit)&#8230;why not just let them keep it??</p>
<p>I wouldn&#8217;t fuck with them&#8230;</p>
<p>For two reasons&#8230;</p>
<p>1) This &#8220;mountain&#8221; seems pretty deserted&#8230;I mean try to look behind those motherfuckers in the picture&#8230;if things <em>did</em> go sour? Vedanta can kiss their tea and biscuits goodbye&#8230;these guys look willing and able to bury that whole mining company if shit gets ugly&#8230;</p>
<p>2) Anytime a woman is at the forefront of a pack of angry rebels in the <em>picture</em>&#8230;I wouldn&#8217;t trust it&#8230;there&#8217;s just no telling what type of ruthless, vigilante-esque shit she did to earn their respect as &#8220;leader in the picture&#8221;&#8230;</p>
<p>This story isn&#8217;t getting a lot of attention in the national media but I will try to keep you guys updated as things develop&#8230;</p>
<p>Till then&#8230;I ask&#8230;</p>
<p>Who would win in a steel cage match&#8230;the Somalian Pirates or Dondria Kongh Rebels???</p>
<p>I got my money on the Pirates&#8230;</p>
<p>Bows and arrows seem real fucking primitive in 2008&#8230;but then again they would probably tear my ass up with one of those axes in a heartbeat so what do I know&#8230;</p>

<p><a href="http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2008/10/07/africa/AF-Somalia-Piracy.php">http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2008/10/07/africa/AF-Somalia-Piracy.php</a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>The Faina&#8217;s hijacking, the most high-profile off Somalia this year, illustrates the ability of a handful of pirates from a failed state to menace a key international shipping lane despite the deployment of warships by global powers. More than two dozen ships have been hijacked off Somalia&#8217;s coast this year.</em></p>
<p>Wow&#8230;</p>
<p>The scary thing at this point is&#8230;I think the Somalian&#8217;s may win&#8230;</p>
<p>It was one thing to hear this story first break and start to develop a screenplay based on it&#8230;</p>
<p>I mean it started off real juicy and gripping&#8230;like we were for sure this was a 2 day affair at best&#8230;.</p>
<p>But now I&#8217;m like&#8230;shit&#8230;I&#8217;m not trying to make a movie about these motherfuckers!!!</p>
<p>Have this scary motherfucker show up at my doorstep with <em>that</em> gun&#8230;whew&#8230;talk about a bad day&#8230;I&#8217;d shit myself right on the spot&#8230;true story&#8230;</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know&#8230;they say John McCain (who got caught) is a <em>war hero</em>&#8230;</p>
<p>No&#8230;</p>
<p><em>This</em> motherfucker above and his friends are <em>war heros</em>&#8230;</p>
<p>Read the accompanying article if you think its a game&#8230;</p>
<p>I just dont know why we don&#8217;t hire these <em>mavericks</em> to go to Iraq and handle business for us!!!!</p>
<p>Shit if all they want is $20 million&#8230;thats a steal compared to the 100 billion a month Dubya&#8217;s got us spending&#8230; </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll keep you guys posted on our Somalian buddies as more news becomes available&#8230;</p>

<p style="text-align:left;">Me and Mike James are frantically working with directors and producers trying to start a bidding war before the script is done on this over the top story&#8230;.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Somalian Pirates take over a Ukrainian cargo ship and hold it ransom for $20 million dollars???</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">I couldn&#8217;t think of an easier way to make a few million bucks on a shitty Michael Bay summer flick&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">We are looking at Russell Crowe and the new dude who plays Bond to be the Ukrainian sailors who get fucked up by the Somalians&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">And of course Djimon Hounsou is the leader of the Somalian pirates&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">I mean look at him&#8230;</p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 274px"><a href="http://upload.moldova.org/movie/actors/d/djimon_hounsou/thumbnails/tn2_djimon_hounsou_3.jpg"><img src="http://upload.moldova.org/movie/actors/d/djimon_hounsou/thumbnails/tn2_djimon_hounsou_3.jpg" alt="Grrrrr Scurvyyyyyy...." width="264" height="406" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Grrrrr Scurvyyyyyy....</p></div>
<p>My man is about to be the black Johnny Depp&#8230;</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll keep it at a PG-13 rating and franchise this bitch&#8230;</p>
<p>Lunch boxes&#8230;T-Shirts&#8230;A ride at Six Flags!!!!</p>
<p>Time will only tell just how much the public embraces the epic tale of Somalian Pirates&#8230;</p>
<p>Production starts as soon as we find out who wins&#8230;</p>
<p>But I got my money on the Somalians at this point&#8230;</p>
<p>Stay tuned for the trailer my friends&#8230;</p>
