[caribbound]

And I believe we have Pinochio to thank for exposing even preschoolers to the normalcy of the phrase. There's a reason my kids only saw it once.

Don't we have Sparrow?

 

[kindomind]

Aye, Sparrow we do have.

Now that's a good idea Maybe they will add JackSparrow to the VMK dictionary for the month of May? Do staff read these threads?
