A merchant ship filled with gold is sailing in the Caribbean when the lookout in the crow’s nest suddenly cries out, “Pirate ship off the starboard bow!” The captain immediately orders, “Hoist the sails! Man the cannons! And bring me my red vest.”
A fierce battle follows, and the pirates are driven off.
The next day, the lookout calls again, “Pirate ship off the port bow!”
Without hesitation, the captain shouts, “Hoist the sails! Man the cannons! And bring me my red vest.”
Once more, the pirates are defeated.
Two days later, the lookout bellows, “Pirate ship dead ahead!”
The captain remains calm. “Hoist the sails! Man the cannons! And bring me my red vest.”
Again, the pirates are beaten back.
After the fight, the first mate approaches the captain. “Begging your pardon, sir, but why do you always ask for your red vest when we’re under attack?” The captain replies, “So that if I am wounded in battle, the crew will not see my blood and lose heart.”
Three days later, the lookout’s voice rings out in alarm: “Three pirate ships off the starboard bow, the port bow, and dead ahead!”
The captain turns to his first mate and says, “Hoist the sails! Man the cannons! And bring me my brown trousers.”
