Pirates and miners

Funny story. Kyra and I went with another couple to a haunted forest on Saturday night. First off, is anyone else tired of every entertainment business having to incorporate a pirate theme in the wake of the Pirates of the Carribean trilogy's commercial success? I'm sick of the shameless coattail-riding. Also, the lawyer in me wonders about copyright infringement. I mean, there was a dude there who called himself Captain Jack Sparrow, and spoke and gestured with all of Sparrow's trademark mannerisms (although his accent slipped into Australian/New Zealander at times) . And I'm sure the folks at Haunted Utah are not sending regular royalty checks to The Walt Disney Company.

Anyway, the haunted forest boasted a haunted mine, with dead miners and related carnage. I thought to myself, is it too soon for that?
