Me treasure be acting strange...

Lately, I be noticin’ somethin’ mighty peculiar...SO THERE I WAS! Sailing the open sea with me first mate, Yarr. When suddenly I heard a strange noise below deck. So I raced down, and ye’ll never believe what I saw. It be the totem we took from the ancient temple. Rattlin’ and shakin’! Grumblin’ like the stomach of a starvin’ squid. And it might be me eyes, but I think it be bigger than when we brought it aboard. Arr! I be thinkin’ it might be cursed! Of course it’ll take more than THAT to make Captain Rockhopper miss a party! I’ll see ye at the Beach on Aug. 23. Fair winds me hearties! P.S.—Did ye know that pineapple be great with stinky cheese? It be the perfect snack to settle a pirate’s stomach on the choppy seas!
