Pirate Talk

Thanks to Rob and Stubbie for reminding us of that fast approaching day of...well, linguistic joy(?) or interest maybe: International Talk Like a Pirate Day, Septemeber 19 (also another famous day, for those who care, sniff...)

I expect everyone to watch the video (link below) and then follow the other link to take the quiz and post their own pirate name so we can all celebrate properly on Tuesday.

Yarrr! (I'm agreeing with myself for those you have watched the video).

My pirate name is:


Captain Tom Cash



Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in charge. You're musical, and you've got a certain style if not flair. You'll do just fine. Arr!

Carter's pirate name is:
Mad Harry Bonney

Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!
