Ayeterday, (September 19th for those o' us on this side o' t' date line) was International Talk Like A Pirate Day! Arrrrrrrr!

If you don't already have a Pirate name (who doesn't?) then you can answer a few questions and get your very own here:

Yarrr, I'm Black John Flint!

Like anyone confronted with the harshness of robbery on the high seas, you can be pessimistic at times. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!

Hey, we could always have a 'cockney' day like we did over at god-boy's place.

I didn't know you were sufficiently double-jointed to do that to yourself.

I'll have you know that as a pirate, I would get custom made elongated pegs I'd be at least 5'10" then
