Wow. oiseaurobyn pointed out to me that someone really has a lot of time on their hands went to a lot of trouble to make this webpage about the Lovely Jack Doll.

And, to wind up another glorious Talk Like A Pirate Day, here's our favorite sea shanty...

The Drummer and the Cookie

Oh there was a little drummer
And he loved a wall-eyed cook
And he loved her, oh he loved her
Though she had a cock-eyed look,

chorus: With her one eye in the pot
And the other up the chimney
With a bow-wow-wow
Fal-lal the dow-a-diddy
Bow-wow-wow.

When this couple went a-courtin'
For to walk along the shore,
Sez the drummer to the cookie,
"You're the gal that I adore."

(Chorus)

When this couple went a-courtin'
For to walk along the pier,
Sez the cookie to the drummer,
"An' I love you too my dear. "

(Chorus)

Sez the drummer to the cookie,
"'Ain't the weather fine today?"
Sez the cookie to the drummer,
"Is that all ye got to say?"

(Chorus)

Sez the drummer to the cookie
"Shall I buy the weddin' ring? "
Sez the cookie, "Now you're talkin'.
That would be the very thing."

(Chorus)

Sez the drummer to the cookie,
"Will ye name the weddin' day?"
Sez the cookie "We'll be married
In the merry month of May."

(Chorus)

When they went to church to say
"I will" the drummer got a nark,
For her one eye gliffed the Parson,
And the other killed the clerk.

chorus: With her one eye in the pot
And the other up the chimney
With a bow-wow-wow
Fal-lal the dow-a-diddy
Bow-wow-wow.

nark: a disagreeble surprise caused by a person, and not by a circumstance.
gliff: frighten

I think s/he's supposed to be Johnny's character Bon Bon from Before Night Falls.

That's the best I could come up with.
