Don't ye be fergittin now, it's International Talk Like a Pirate Day! T' link thar kin take you to a fine English-to-Pirate translater if ye be havin' difficulties wi' the lingo. Ye kin also find some fine pirate haiku t' put ye in a fine mood fer rampagin' on the high seas. Swab the decks and look lively, there. Yo ho!
Ye can even treat t' hands to a readin' of Treasure Island for free online, iffen ye kin read an' if ye scurvy lubbers don't have th' book. Learn how t' converse wi' yer German brethren. Dig out the ol' vinyl records an' take a listen at ELP's "Pirates" and then o' course, ye can cap off the evenin' by getting out th' rum and watchin' Cap'n Jack (I hear tell ther're some other blokes in that movie, but I ain't seen em yet).
Arrrrrrrr! Keep to the Code! Take what ye can, give nothin' back!
