Jaro & Stevo have formed a new Somali pirate crew. This was our first mission. I think it went pretty well.

We are looking for new recruits. It is a byorpg (bring your own RPG) crew so if you don't have one get one.

I used to think it's fun to cook with charcoal. Kinda like a barbeque. But with this bout of bronchitis caused by the smoke, fuck it.

These kids had worked out that if they had their photo taken, they could see it on the camera's display. So they went around posing all afternoon...
