All the adult members of the Casa Chaos Hermitage went out to see Pirates of the Caribbean last night, after a delicious dinner at the new Mexican restaurant in town (owned and run by a family from Mexico). No really, decent Mexican in New England, and they even make their own tortilla chips -- no, not as good as Tejas chips, but a damn sight better than anything else I've yet found locally. And their margaritas are...passably good, but I'll freely admit, I'm a serious margarita snob.

Okay, it's not a movie, so much as a theme park ride (sort of like the 2nd Indiana Jones movie)...but that's kind of the point, eh? It was fun, if not a deathless classic of the genre.

Which makes this result below all the more amusing to me. I note that a close second is a tie between the Dread Pirate Roberts and Cap'n Jack Sparrow -- clearly I have some good/evil tussles going on, with pure heresy and the unexpected winning out over all ;> What kind of pirate are you?

You scored as Mary Read. You are very unconventional, you defy the rules as often as you can and like to take as many risks as possible. You will probably end up living happily under a bridge somewhere laughing at all the unsavory deeds you once instigated.

I went and saw it last night too! Great minds think alike.

I wasn't nearly as impressed with it as the first one -- but hey, it's a pirate movie. About pirates. I love pirates! So I forgave it all of its shortcomings.

Did I mention that I love pirates? :)

You scored as Captain Jack Sparrow. You are definitely quirky and often mistaken for mad but if anyone is truly paying attention they can see there is method to your madness. You try really hard to be bad but in the end you tend to do the right thing.

You scored as Sinbad. You are gifted with gab and can talk your way out of just about any situation. Very charming, but sometimes the charm gets you into trouble. The gods look on you fondly and sometimes through obstacles at you just to see how creative your solution is.

The tiebreaker was whether I receive divine communiques or speak incomprehensibly.

The movie is in my "top three movies I want to see but likely won't have the opportunity this summer". But it did come up on the moving marquee of the theatre immediately as I walked by, also last night, interestingly enough.

You found a decent Mexican restaurant in New England?????? I found a shoddy one in Quincy, MA. Where exactly was it? I was Jonesin' for 2 years for some decent Mexican food when I was living up in MA. Of course I hear of some place AFTER I move....
