Pirates
By Christopher Munroe
When Johnny Depp was kidnapped by actual Somali pirates, we
all agreed it was going to be amazing. News networks went berserk, comedians
got ready and we were primed to follow this amazing, if socially irrelevant,
news story wherever it might take us.
It was, after all, the sort of amazing TV that didn’t come
along every day, and we were excited to make the most of it.
Three days later the pirates killed him.
Because in real life, pirates do that.
It was kind of a downer.
Ah well. Hopefully the next thing will be a little more fun…
