    One of the last urchins of the evening was this stocky kid in a pirate costume. I palmed the little beer into his bag and unlike most of the
    other chirrun he looked into the sack. Then he looked up and said, in a raspy, gruff voice "You broke my f***ing cookies!" Turned and stomped off.

    Arr, lucky ye walked not the plank!

    Are you familiar with Tiny URL?

    I generally use it if the URL is >70 characters. There is also "bit.ly"
    but I don't have them bookmarked as I do Tin Yurl.
