Talk like a pirate day is coming!

In just nine days (September 19th) the annual, not so famous but viral, Talk Like A Pirate Day will be here. For those of you unaware of what this holiday is all about let me bend your ear with a brief, very brief history. Created in 1995 by John Baur (Ol' Chumbucket) and Mark Summers (Cap'n Slappy), of Albany, Oregon, it all started on a racquetball court whilst the two friends played. One injured himself and exclaimed, "Arrrrr!!" and thus the holiday was born.

But I don't know how to talk pirate you whine. In response I say, "Arrr, stop your complainin' Gar, Where can I find a bottle o'rum?" It's easy when you have a English to pirate translator to help you. Go on and give it a try... here. It's all fun and games and you'll be Arrr, professional pirate Aye, me parrot concurs.

If you're a lover of the pirates of yor' why not celebrate with some rum and wear your favorite pirate shirt on Monday, September 19th.
