Talk Like A Pirate Day

Talk Like A Pirate Day


Ahoy Mateys.

Today is 'Talk Like a Pirate Day', and it's not to late to let those other poor swabs know it too.

So sharpen up those cutlasses and wits, and entertain your friends. Don't worry if what you say is rated 'Aargh' today.

Time to shove off and get some rum aboard, and set a course for the local tavern while I have a fair wind blowin'. Just be careful not to get three sheets to the wind tonight, me hearties.

If you know the story, I'll just leave you the last line.
"Aargh, it drives me nuts."

Don

If I recall, I told the whole joke last year and it got banned.

Thank you for using better discretion than I, matey!

About the only piratese I know comes from Greg Brown, voice of the Pittsburgh Pirates:  "Clear the deck, canonball comin'!  Raise the Jolly Roger!"

It be a shame that me Buccos got scuttled more times this year than they found victory... :(
