September 19th "talk like a pirate day"

[kathycf]

Ahoy! This monumental occasion occurs on September 19, and as I write this, that is only 3 hours and 45 minutes away by my clock. My hands are shaking with excitement and my heart is filled with wonder and joy...;)

Here is the official headquarters of Talk like a Pirate (http://www.talklikeapirate.com/piratehome.html)

If you need to brush up on your pirate talking skills, here is an informative video for you to do just that. (http://loadingreadyrun.com/showmovie.php?x=480&y=360&url=talklikepirate.mov)

[Scheherazade]

I propose that we all dress up as pirates for the day!

Ahoy, me hearties! What say ye to my parrot, Precious?

(...gosh, I feel really out of place)

[kathycf]

She be a fine saucy parrot, young wench.

(sorry about the wench part, but if you watch the video you will see that is the only appropriate pirate term for "female" ;) ...and yaarh, I feel silly but who cares! :lol: )

[cuppajoe_9]

Yarrr. Jim-Jim-Jimmy-Jim-Jim-Jim-Jim. The one-legged man brings death! The one-armed one-eyed one-legged man brings lots of death! Bring the yardarm abaft and cast the off mizzen and other nautical terms.

[kathycf]

Shiver me timbers, that was a day that went by too fast.

[Scheherazade]

Shiver me timbers, that was a day that went by too fast.Yes and we didn't even get to plunder any treasures or walk anyone on the plank!

Your welcome, Vintage...keep Precious around for next September. :D

Scher, I too feel the pain a lack of plunderin' and plank walkin' has wrought.

[Stanislaw]

[Scheherazade]

The plank is right under your feet and the ship is still under Papaya's command, I believe! ;)
