Got Buckles? Swash 'Em on Wednesday!

Yep, it's that time of year mateys! September the 19th is Talk Like a Pirate Day. Hey, I am on the wagon this year with this good lookin' bunch. So is Dave Barry. He reminded me today on his calendar. In the meantime, it helps to play a lot of Jimmy Buffett music. Also, watch a Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Errol Flynn or Douglas Fairbanks Jr. movie. Be sure and drink some rum Tuesday night. That'll help too. Does this border on absolute silliness? No, it actually goes wayyy over that border. Fun? Yes, curmudgeons of the world let that hair down and join in the festivity. Arrrrrrr, a good time shall be had by all or ye walks de plank!

Now we need to enact Clean Mental Hygiene on September the 20th.

“Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be pirates.”
