George was a pirate, but he wasn’t a very good pirate.
He sat at a busy corner and held a sign that said: NOT A VERY GOOD PIRATE.
Passersby put money in his hat, and he’d growl and leer at them.
Now and then, someone would talk to George.
He just blankly drooled.
After a few days, a doctor came by and examined George.
“Okay, you no longer have a concussion,” he said. “Go back to your ship.”
George returned home with a hat full of money.
The captain smiled, and bonked George on the head again with a cannonball.
