This cracks me up. Does everyone have a spokeperson?
We just saw a big ship,” the pirates’ spokesman, Sugule Ali, told The New York Times. “So we stopped it.”
I guess so. You can read more about the Somali pirates here, but needless to say, they are real pirates, they are dangerous, and they may not look like Johnny Depp.

And how does one put that on one’s resume? Does the pirate group have a specific identifier or would you just say
“Spokesman, Pirate Group Operating Off the Coast of Somalia. 2006-Present
Accomplishments: Hijacked big-ass ship loaded with tanks”

I wonder if the pirate spokesperson is a friend of the families of one of the pirates. Seriously. This just boggles my mind.
