Talk Like A Pirate Day - September 19

Just a reminder - next Monday is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. Possibly even more pointless than trying to get 2000 petes in one place, Talk Like a Pirate Day is in its eleventh year, but it didn't become an international event until Dave Barry gave it wider publicity in 2002. The site has plenty of help and advice if you are a beginner at talking like a pirate, and less desirably but inevitably there are now some merchandising opportunities as well.
