Back in the swashbuckling days of PIRATES ___ bold, there lived a certain one named PEG LEG PETE ___. His only goal in life was to find a hidden TREASURE ___ which could be found by following a MAP ___. Only one copy of the MAP ___ existed among all the PIRATES ___ and it happened that PEG LEG PETE ___ had possession on the MAP ___.

One fine day he and his PIRATES ___ set sail to find the TREASURE ___. After carefully studying the MAP ___, they began their journey. Each one was dreaming of all the riches he would find when they finally located the TREASURE ___. PEG LEG PETE ___ followed the MAP ___, day by day, using his spyglass as they came closer and closer to the spot where the TREASURE ___ was buried. PEG LEG PETE ___ suddenly threw the MAP ___ down in a mad rage while the other PIRATES ___ rushed to pick it up and see what had enraged their leader. In his haste to get to the TREASURE ___, PEG LEG PETE ___ had been reading the MAP ___ upside down. The TREASURE ___ was really buried right in the spot they began their journey.

In a rage, the PIRATES ___ took out their swords and killed PEG LEG PETE ___, tore up the MAP ___ into shreds fighting over it and then f ought until they were all killed. So the TREASURE ___ is still buried right where it has always been. (Show bag full of shredded paper.) Would any of you like to out together this MAP ___ and find the PIRATE'S ___ TREASURE ___?
