...Annual Talk Like A Pirate Day!


Arrrrgh!


According to the TLAPD website, a commonly used pickup line in "pirate
bars" is "prepare to be boarded!" It's been a long, long time since I
was single, but it's hard to imagine such an approach resulting in a
lot of "booty".


The whole concept is silly as heck, and historically inaccurate to
boot.
Oh well, some folks will have a lot of fun with it so......happy "Talk
like Hollywood script writers think pirates talked day" :-)


Find that bottle of "Mellow Yellow," Chuck, and take all of them. I know
you are a really serious guy and disdainful of anyone whose idea of fun
is different from yours. You're probably the only guy in the world
trying to analyze TLAPD for hidden meaning and accuracy.- Hide quoted text -

Harry, do try to read for content.

I remarked:

"Talk

Note:

1. Described the concept as "silly". (You're not serious, I hope).
2. Noted that while the "pirate speak" is historically inaccurate, it
would be a lot of fun for some folks and wished them a happy "Talk
like Hollywood script writers think pirates talked day".

That includes you, Harry. Have a happy cartoon pirate day. Really, I
mean it.
