Avast matees, it’s almost here. What are you doing September 19th?
Folks who know me or have read this blog for more than a year know that I’ve been excited about “Talk Like a Pirate Day” since I first heard of it in 2002. Last year September 19th I was held up in bed with strep throat and did not get to participate beyond a couple of text messages to friends.
This year will be different. I’m going to commemorate this momentous day and I’d love to do so with some friends. Here are the options I’ve come up with.
1. Talk Like a Pirate Party—While this has it’s advantages, TKAPD ’04 falls on a Sunday and no one likes to wake up to a trashed house on Monday morning before work, so this might not be the best option.
2. Talk Like a Pirate Bar Crawl—I’m all for this one, but I think I might have some problems getting friends to sign up for it on a Sunday
Let me know what you’re thinking; if you’re up for a little pirate themed celebrations on a Sunday and September.
And in honor of four weeks till TLAPD 04, I think I'll start telling pirate jokes again (suppress the groans, I haven't told any in a while).
