Too Much Civility

There's too much civility hanging out here
Will try to create mayhem while drinking a beer
For the common good
Will do what I should
But it may be too much for this mortal so mere

Jack! Jack! Jack! You old Pirate! You are NOT a mere mortal!... Honest! Really! And nothing is too much for a pirate... Arg! Me hearty!... LOL... Sigh! No Dragon 'Me Hearty doesn't mean I gave LimmerJack my heart and left you behind... There's room for the penguins... and yes, even you! Had him worried there for a moment. Think a few Pirates Movies from yon... yesteryear... are now in order. Storm Troopers he understands... Ummm... Maybe better not... He's wild enough as it is already!!!
