It be International Talk Like a Pirate Day.
I be likin’ some of them FAQs, like this one, arrrrrr:
Q. When is Talk Like A Pirate Day 2006 (2007, 2008, etc.)?
A. International Talk Like a Pirate Day isn’t one o’ those governmentally sanctioned holidays that shifts around to create a convenient three-day weekend. No, the date is ALWAYS Sept. 19 (Cap’n Slappy’s ex-wife’s birthday.) Now, occasionally Sept. 19 falls on a Sunday, and we recognize that may not meet everyone’s desire for an excuse to party. While a lot of fun can be had ce;ebrating TLADP in a church setting (The choir will now sing, “How Great Thou Aaarrrrt!”) we’re suggesting that those of a more secular bent consider celebrating Talk Like A Pirate Weekend.
Now I be off to practice singing in the choir, Arrrrrr….
(This talking like a pirate business doesn’t seem to involve much variety, does it? Ah well…)
