Did anyone read this?
Hungarian builders who drank their way to the bottom of a huge barrel of rum while renovating a house got a nasty surprise when a pickled corpse tumbled out of the empty barrel…
Am I crazy or is the dead man not supposed to be part of the rum… lets now…
Fifteen men on a dead man’s chest
Ok, that’s either fifteen little men, or one big dead man…
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
The RUM!
Drink and the devil had done for the rest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
More rum please…
The mate was fixed by the bosun’s pike
Admittedly, I had to look up bosun in the dictionary…
The bosun brained with a marlinspike
Yeah, I had to look up marlinspike too…
And cookey’s throat was marked belike
and belike… Yea, I’m dumb slow.
It had been gripped by fingers ten;
And there they lay, all good dead men
Like break o’day in a boozing ken
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
Yup, nothing about mixing drinks with a dead man…
Although, A Dead Hungarian isn’t a bad name for a drink…
A Dead Hungarian
4 oz Rum
Twist of Dead Man
Mix in a highball glass two-thirds full of ice. Stir briskly and serve.
