I just read this joke a little while ago, and I could stop laughing.
After many years at sea, a pirate decided to retire. Since he had suffered injuries on the job, he thought that he should collect on his worker's compensation insurance. He had a wooden leg, a hook where his right hand should be and a patch over his right eye. The agent assured him that he would be compensated if the injuries were work related.
Agent: "How did you get the wooden leg?"
Pirate: "Me and me mates were on the high seas when the boom swang 'round and knocked me into the sea where a shark bit off me leg."
Agent: "That is certainly work related. How did you lose your hand?"
Pirate: "Well matey, me and me mates were on the high seas when the boom swang 'round and knocked me into the sea where a shark bit off me hand,"
Agent: "That's also work related. Now how did you lose your eye?"
Pirate: "Well matey, I was laying on the deck one balmy day catching some rays when this seagull flew by and crapped in me eye!"
Agent: "What does that have to do with the loss of your eye?"
Pirate: "It were the first day with me hook!"
I don't care who ya R', that's funny right there!
