Pirate Versus Ninja

How does a Pirate vs. Ninja conversation start? i can't speak about all Pirate/Ninja conversations, but i will tell you how my *latest* P vs. N conversation started... (Yes, i've had more than one)

Meeting a good friend for coffee today, i arrived early at Starbucks. i brought along a notepad to get some work done while i waited (foolish). Little did i know that i'd have such a compelling converstation with the barrista. Starbucks Gal stated "There should be Pirate Coffee...". Heh (out of the blue), to which i replied "but then you'd need to offer Ninja Coffee... and who would win?" (yeah, i tried to put her on the spot, no dice, She was ready for this...)
She replied "Oh, the Pirate, of course... They can cheat..." etc etc etc, and the conversation went from there. Carried over 3 or 4 barristas... two other coffee house guests... and over half an hour. Good times, good times.

A quick check with google shows over 142,000 pages online focusing on this topic... add my blog post to the list.

So, weigh in on the topic, for the first time, or the hundredth... let me know : Who would win in a fight or duel between a Pirate and a Ninja? And why? (that is the best part of the question... heh)

I think it depends on the situation. Put one of them in their 'element', and I'm sure they'd excel. So... a nice quiet forest devoid of other people... the ninja would OWN! but... a rowdy bar on the waterfront... I'm sure the pirate would have his day. ;)

I'm definately pro-pirate though. y'arrrrr!
