Aye, matey, and my wife sees on the Internet it is her favorite, almost religious, holiday, “Talk Like A Pirate Day.” Please join me in celebrating.

Arrrgh—I never know until the day of. Thanks for the reminder, matey.
Ahoy, I’m terrible at this.
Shiver me timbers, this is a lot easier to do in person than typing, arrrggghh.
Yar I be well versed in th art of speaking pirate. Although I be pref’ern the ti’le o’ “Gentleman o’ fortune.” Savy?
(tis be a long story how i gained me sealegs as a pirate… ye sh’ld jest be knowing that I look th’ part too. Nay but a few summers ago, I was in the employment of a nautical vessel…twas a real ship but twas not made fer pirates…twas made to make landlubbers like ye pretend to be pirates. Aye the folly. Alas, those days are long gone…)
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaar. Me leg be rottin’ out and me eyes be all blurry. Have yer any of th’ magical citrus fruit? Yaaaaaaaaar.
Arrr, I be in me office this here fine mornin’ with me mateys.
Yaaarrrrr, andrew, I be think’n ya sound mor’ lik ye be havin’ the French pox than scurvy, me lad. Thar she blows, laddies, the great white whale! Drop th’ longboats and grab yer ‘arpoons. . . Never mind, I was just walking past a mirror.
Avast, I want to hear gailcalled and mirza cursin’ like the devilish seadogs they are. I mean, aaarrrrhhhh.
Yarrrrr, it be some white whale-meat that I be cravin’. Luckily, Tuesday is whale-meat day at Shiver-Me-Mateys.
Sorry. I just get the giggles when I think of Gregory Peck standing on a papier maché whale we called Moby Cucumber.
