So, what does Pirate Joe think about when he's not talking on air?
Well, if you're a usual Pirate Joe Radio Show listener: 1) you might know that the "official" name of the show is "Pirate Joe's Radio Show" but that I refer to it as "The Pirate Joe Radio Show", and 2) that Pirate Joe did the hardest thing of his time at The U today. That's right, I talked half as much as I usually do during the show! (gasp).
This doesn't mean anything so silly as Pirate Joe not being behind the scenes or anything during the show. I've been here doing the things I usually do, but I've been letting the music play instead of gabbing away.
So, Instead of talking, on air about things, I'm going to give you the links and make light commentary on them.

I'd be lying to say that I feel that sorry for the guy... He does live in 2008. If you want to be a bike messenger and be successful today, I'm pretty much sure that you have to be 12. I say all this, but really hope that things work out for him. I just know that he is going to have to change his profession to meet with real success.

If any of you have ever asked "Who does cannibalism hurt" here's you answer )and try to keep your distance from me).

I don't know that I agree with the article, but it raises an excellent question worth talking about.

If we could make these water tight, I'd eat cereal out of them.

If you don't find this exciting on multiple levels, you're probably not geeky enough to really appreciate my show...

No surprise there.

I don't find this story interesting in itself, but it's pretty awesome that one of the dudes headbutted through the window in a cop car and swam across the lake handcuffed!

You've got to have some talent to pull this off.
And last but not least
12. Pirate Joe found an article on google having a website maker now, so there may be a Pirate Joe website in the near future!
Ogggg! I tried it, but I can't make a webpage because I don't have a domain all to myself. :-( No website for Pirate Joe.
