Sept. 19 is National Talk Like a Pirate Day (and I tend to hold this holiday in more regard than Christmas, Yom Kippur, and Columbus Day combined), and anybody not posting like a pirate all of Sept. 19 will have their post editted to reflect their true pirate intentions. I’m sure there are no qualms about this rule…especially in this crowd.
I’ve heard many a tale of th’ man dark as night while sailin’ round the Cape of Good Hope, but never in me wildest nightmares did I ever imagine that such a devil creature could inhabit this fair land!!
On the day o’ the 19th, I’ll be ‘pon the seas, by which I mean I’ll be in a tiny coastal town in Maine. I’m happy I’ll be makin’ the trip the day afore; I’m not sure the scurvy dogs of the air be wantin’ to hear pirate speech when it be time for takeoff. Avast, it be Cap’n Laden!
I work as… I mean, I be workin’ as a Computer Tech on the the pirate ship PC Club in La Mesa. The crew be stout and the cap’n be drinkin rum and playin’ Bust-a-Move 4 all the time, but she be a fine ship indeed. Ye better come visit if ye be in southern California, lest ye walk the plank.
