Zanzibar (1987)
In honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day, I’ve asked Seamus McGillicutty, pirate impersonator extraordinaire to write a guest blog.
Welcome, me buckos, tis time for what I’m told is a blog post. Never heard of it, though it is soundin’ like it could be part of a sailin’ ship that I wouldn’t like to be tied to.
This here be Zanzibar, one of the band o’ brigands what go by the moniker o’ Dreadnok. He is a man of ill repute, and regarded as a scurvy dog by his mates.
He certainly looks like a pirate I must say. His topknot looks like real hair, though I reckon it be plastic, much as the rest o’ him. He’s even armed with all manner o’ piratey weapons, including a hammer and spear. He drives an air skiff, which I hear is kind of a mini swampin’ buggy. It also be armed to the teeth, with machine guns and missiles.
He certainly looks like a scallywag I wouldn’t trifle with, lest I end up in Davey Jones’ locker.
Argh! I love talk like a pirate day!
Avast me hearties! Zanzibar’s one salty dog that be lookin’ like he’d rather fancy a scuffle with them Pirates of Dark Water. Anchors away, I say!
Ahoy! Dis pirate be wearin’ a belly shirt! What a sexy scallywag that one is. Argh!

I never had this one, but I’ve always liked Zanzibar. I liked that even the other Dreadnoks didn’t seem to like him all that much, but they still kept him around.
”Zanzibar”.-Typical Dreadnok,in appearance.One hopes, when he is operating his air skiff, that his ponytail does not get caught into the fan blades, Or Zanzibar will get the quickest haircut ever!”
