Avast! Did ye know September 19th is Talk Like a Pirate Day?

jolly roger Ahoy there neighbors! Having a special place in me heart for pirates (Not the Country Day variety, but nothing special against them either) I must promote International Talk Like a Pirate Day. (This is NOT an endorsement of the book.) So, come out and say things to your neighbors like "shiver me timbers! Ye scurvy dogs!Shake yer booty!" Actually, that last line would be disco pirate talk. And that would be another holiday. Arrgh!

The flag pictured above be known as a Jolly Roger. If the crossed bones were replaced by crossed cutlasses, t'would be a John or Jack Rackham flag.
