our hats are off

[zenithblue]

Be ye tired of pirates? Well ye be at the wrong blog then, matey.

I dug up this bit 'o treasure on the Talk Like a Pirate Day website. It be the courageous yarn of a plucky pirate wench tossed to the wild seas of corporate media culture. Read if ye dare, the tale of Mad Sally (wife of the notorious John "Ol' Chumbucket" Baur of Talk Like a Pirate Day fame) and her Wife Swap adventure.

I do heartily take me hat off to her. 

(I wish I knew this woman).

Indeed...provided the ol' back don't crap out on me again, Drawgirl and I be heading out that afternoon. Any Portland pirates interested are welcome to meet up w' us or get a ride--we'll probably head out at 1 or 2 and stay for a few hours. Geeks only need apply.

I'm a geek! I'm a geek! I apply.

(...if you're a good enough ninja, they won't even know you're there. You can do all kinds of crazy shit. Steal their hats. Tie their bootstraps together. Just don't mess with their rum. They always notice that.)

Heh. I love it! I'll be sure not to touch the rum, though. My date asked me why there isn't a "talk like a ninja" day. I said it was obvious, of course - you would never hear what a ninja sounded like! :D
