I was going to post another boring rant about how directionless I am and how I feel so rudderless and blah, blah, blah. But then I took this quiz and instantly felt better...
You are "Welcome to the Caribbean, love."
You're more than a little world-weary, but also
intelligent and you keep your head when things
get dodgy. You're everybody's favorite
drinking buddy, but your stubbornness does get
in the way sometimes.
Which one of Captain Jack Sparrow's bizarre sayings from Pirates of the Caribbean are you? brought to you by Quizilla
Pirates of the Carribbean was such a fun, silly movie. Plus, how can you not love Johnny Depp?
With all the attendant hype surrounding the film, I found out he is married or cohabitating with Vanessa Paradis. I think most Americans probably have no idea who the hell she is, but having been in highschool french in the late '80s, I remember her fairly vividly. My French teacher, who was weirdly, almost aggressively manic like French teachers tend to be, forced us to listen to her big hit, 'Joe le Taxi.' I had no idea what it was about at the time. Hell, I still don't. I think Joe drove a taxi, but I could be wrong. At least once in the song she sang: Joe le Taxi/ cha-cha-cha-chi.
The song was pretty mediocre to my teenage American ears; kind of chirpy and poppy like syrupy French pop tends to be, I guess. The class wiseass, I think his name was Chris, commented in broken French (Franglais!) that she sounded like one of the chipmunks (Alvin - Simon - Theodore).
I have no idea if Vanessa Paradis is still singing or if she's still a big star in France. It just seems oddly appealing, and right somehow, that she and Johnny Depp are in love, living together somewhere in Paris with their two-year-old daughter. I don't know why.
