International Talk Like A Pirate Day!
It's that time of year again: International Talk Like A Pirate Day: September 19th.
From the official website:
International Talk Like a Pirate Day isn't one o' those governmentally sanctioned holidays that shifts around to create a convenient three-day weekend. No, the date is ALWAYS Sept. 19 (Cap'n Slappy's ex-wife's birthday.) Now, occasionally Sept. 19 falls on a Sunday, and we recognize that may not meet everyone's desire for an excuse to party.
While a lot of fun can be had celebrating TLADP in a church setting (The choir will now sing, "How Great Thou Aaarrrrt!") we're suggesting that those of a more secular bent consider celebrating Talk Like A Pirate Weekend.
So get out there, ya scurvey landlubber, and talk like a pirate afore we cut 'cha down like the lilly livered squid that 'cha are!
