Talk Like a Pirate

[sailorboy1]

Arrrrrrrrrrr, Tomorrow 9/19 is national talk like a pirate day. So go get your eye patch and go raiding for some booty. Arrrrrr

PS - Pirates would probably still have both eyes if they stopped putting birds on thier shoulders.

Ay, EEEEE, Aye, Ohhhh, You, and Sometimes Whyyyyy? Pirate alphabet...

[MarkJ]

Oh my hearties, may I have a glass of your rum?

I want to know why Ben Gunn talked the way he did....ending every sentence with...I says..or he says. I'll ask RL Stevenson when I see him.

[Chief Engineer]

"My father often told me when I was just a lad
a sailors' life is very hard-the food is always bad
and now I've joined the Navy
aboard a Man-o-war

A sailor ain't a sailor ain't a sailor any more.

(Who knows the next lines?)

[GordMay]

"... Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civies ready for another run ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore ..."

[Blue Stocking]

" Run up the Jolly Roger lads, and lay alongside her ". (paraphrase from actor Robert Shaw, as Capt. Dan Tempest of the pirate ship Sultana -- 60's TV series.

I had to laugh at this just now. I'm sitting here on the boat with my parrot on my shoulder and she has just recently learned to say Arrrrrrrr! and Yo ho ho! (thanks to the captain, who thinks he's a pirate too!)

I guess we'll have a non-stop Treasure Island movie marathon tomorrow!
Arrrrrr!

Ayeeee...Walace Berry was the best of the best, Found the whole TI movie on Youtube chopped up into 14 episodes. Watching, you can almost smell them! Arrrrrrrr!!!

Hah!....too bad it does not fall on a work day. It would have been fun having the group of scientists on the boat yesterday all talking like pirates. "The scurvy beasts they be..."
