September 19th is semi-officially National Talk Like A Pirate Day. I'm seriously considering answering all of my email in pirate slang, but nothing will top my daughter's friend who came to school in a fully dress-code compliant pirate outfit (we'd be checking if swords are compliant or not, but we're still laughing two years later).

At a time when there is a lot of serious craziness going on in the Tri-State area, perhaps we all need a day to go back to our sea faring roots, real, imagined or otherwise. Pirate lingo-infused dialog definitely makes conference calls end before the sun sets over the yard arm, for the love of Blackbeard.

Avast me hearties, even Cap'n Hal has time for yabberin' like a pirate.

Sounds like I should drive down to Key Largo and ship you a Key Lime pie to go with your Pirate theme
