Talk Like A Pirate Day

[Peter Ansoff]

Today (September 19th) is "International Talk Like A Pirate Day." You can learn more about this interesting holiday at:

Welcome to the Official site for Talk Like A Pirate Day - September 19

Take a look at the "Honorary Crew" section, and read about the scurvy dog that they've appointed as their ship's signalman. (To find it, you may have to click "Expand all" on the left side menu.)

Be sure to fly your "skull and crossbones" flag today!

I flew 3 black flags today! 2 small ones that I use on my sailboat when I go pillaging and a 3x5 that needed a reason to be hoisted. Yo-ho-ho!

well i would have flown my skull and crossbonees flag - if it wasnt ILLEGAL to do so!!
which it is in the UK if you put it on an outdoor flagpole of any description without prior permission ! - isnt it ridiculus!

Once again, it's time to break out your scurvy Jolly Roger! Happy TLAP Day! Actually, the protocol here is a bit complicated, because it's also Independence Day in St. Kitts and Nevis. We're flying the SKN flag, the Jolly Roger and the signal flags that spell "ARRRR."
