Sept. 19th is 'Talk Like a Pirate' Day
Ahoy there, matey. Tomorrow be "Talk Like a Pirate Day" for all you land-lubbers. So dig that peg-leg out of your trunk and find yerself a suitable pirate moniker, or risk being broadsided.
If your piratin' needs more polishin' than a tarnished 12-lb. deck cannon, then tack over to talklikeapirateday.com for help on translations from office speak to pirate jargon and other info:
For instance, instead of saying something like this:"The commitee has decided to reallocate your time to the filing group. We look forward to the exciting new synergies between these departments."
You would say this:
"Aye matey, those scalawags in their fine breeches want ye' to move o'er with the scurvy dogs yonder. If ye' don't come back with some fine booty, we be keelhaulin' you next morn!"
Arrrr!

I partook of that there quiz to find me true pirate moniker, and I'se "IRON SAM CASH". ARRR!
And here's me fortune that it gave me: "A pirate's life isn't easy; it takes a tough person. That's okay with you, though, since you are that person. You're musical, and you've got a certain style if not flair. You'll do just fine. Arr!"
